However, Chris admits that his acting ambitions were a form of &#8220;escapism&#8221; for him.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;There was no doubt that was what I was going to do. There was a naivety about the reality of how difficult that was going to be. But I guess it was sort of an escapism.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nIn 2024, Anya Taylor-Joy hailed Chris as &#8220;the most wonderful&#8221; co-star to work with.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe actress starred alongside Chris in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and Anya admitted that she loved working with the &#8220;kind-hearted&#8221; actor.<\/p>\n<p>\nAnya &#8211; who plays Imperator Furiosa in the George Miller-directed movie &#8211; told Access Hollywood: &#8220;I think we\u2019re so lucky that our relationship is nothing like the characters in this film, because making this film wanting to kill your co-star would be really difficult.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;He\u2019s just the most wonderful, kind-hearted, big-hearted individual. We have a lot of fun. [I\u2019m] very lucky.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nSimilarly, Chris loved his experience of working with Anya.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe actor explained: &#8220;We had a rehearsal, and immediately I had the sense of how passionate you were about the character and fiercely protective of the character that she was, which only helps everybody else on set.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Everything I was doing was then informed by Anya\u2019s decisions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nChris and Anya were able to maintain a healthy creative dialogue throughout the shoot.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe said: &#8220;I was doing things with the younger actress [Alyla Browne] that played Furiosa as the character of Dementus, and Anya would be watching and saying, \u2018I\u2019m not sure she\u2019d respond like this,\u2019 so it would alter this.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Having that kind of ownership and opinion and passion about it enriches everything, and so that I found really inspiring. We had such a fun time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/chris-hemsworth-acting-absolute-obsession-1434643.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>16 December 2025 Chris Hemsworth developed an &#8220;absolute obsession&#8221; with acting as a child.
