Reflecting on the Thor sequel, which the Australian actor stars in, he said he wasn’t “passionate” about his performance in the blockbuster.
“I was a little disappointed in what I did“, he said. “I don’t think I developed the character the way it should have been and I don’t think I showed the audience anything unexpected and different.”
When it came time for Thor’s third part of his own, Chris Hemsworth says he tried to shake things up differently.
“When Ragnarok arrived, to my own frustration with what I had done and that It’s not about any other director or anyone in particular“It’s my accomplishment, I really wanted to break the mold,” the actor tells the magazine of the third installment in the franchise.
“I told Taika (Waititi) and I think the conversation we had was something like, ‘I’m really bored with Thor.
He answered: “Yeah, I’m really bored with Thor too“And so we decided not to get bored, and every time that feeling came into play, we went in a different direction.”
He continued, “We just dissected the character, we wanted it to be a little more unpredictable, we wanted it to have different circumstances than before, and we wanted the humor to come out as well.”

The actor said his relationship with the film’s director, Taika Waititi, helped him get the character where he wanted her to be.
“I had a very good relationship with Taika and we had a great sense of humor between us, it was a way to fill in the downtime,” he said.
Hemsworth later said that in the scenes where Taika Waititi, 46, stepped in front of the camera as “Korg,” the two would improvise together.
Despite these disappointments, the actor told how much fun he had playing this character In all these years.
“I just played the character,” he said. “I love the journey I took with him. Not just like Thor, but how my life has progressed over the years, the “two” have been side by side for the last 10 or 11 years.
Hemsworth will return as Thor in the next episode: Love and Thunder, also directed by Waititi, is slated to hit theaters in July.
