Australian born actor Chris Hemsworth took his bulked up-super hero ready body and posed for the cover of May’s Men’s Health. The 27 year old up-and-comer talks about his role model Anthony Hopkins and why he loves acting. Here are some quotes.
On his role models, including Anthony Hopkins:
“Anthony Hopkins. His whole approach to this business, his work ethic and attitude on set was inspiring, however many films down the track he still has that and he still is excited to be there and treats everyone as equals and everything he does, he is an impressive person. I love Paul Giamatti, Johnny Depp, Al Pacino and Matt Damon, ya know, I could go on and on.”
On fearlessly searching caves in Australia as a kid:
“We built wooden swords and hammered nails into them, and we checked out the cave. My friends and I were convinced we’d meet some ghosts and devils.”
On why he loves being an actor:
“I always loved film, but never thought about it as a career choice. I had a different idea of what I wanted to do professionally every week. You know, I was a lawyer one week, a doctor, a sportsman in some way, and then I found out I can pretend to do all those things in acting.”
