He’s been dividing his time between Sydney and Byron Bay while filming Thor: Love and Thunder.
And on Thursday, Chris Hemsworth showcased a new side to the Marvel superhero while shooting scenes for the Hollywood blockbuster at Sydney’s Centennial Park.
Joined on set by one of his seven-year-old twin sons, the Aussie actor, 37, was seen in Thor’s signature blond wig – but rocked a much sportier look than the Norse god’s traditional gladiator-esque get-up.

Chris looked ready for an ’80s workout with red and white sweatbands. He also wore a black vest, grey sweatpants and black boots.
He engaged in conversation with the crew and kept a close eye on one of his twins, either Tristan or Sasha, whom he shares with wife Elsa Pataky.
His son wore a tie-dye top, sweatpants and sneakers, and played with an iPad given to him by an on-set staffer.

Chris, who has gained a legion of admirers for portraying superhero Thor, appears to have still not won over one of his sons, admitting on Tuesday his youngster’s allegiance lies with DC’s Superman.
He shared a cute photo from the Sydney set, which showed him holding hands with his little boy, who was wearing a Superman cape.
