The “Spiderhead” actor explained (per Insider) that he’s used to getting ripped for movies (usually Thor) and then losing weight and muscle for other movies. Hemsworth said it used to be easier for him to change his body for different film roles.

He said, “Every time I play that character and put on the muscles and get the size out, and then lose it for something else and play another character, there’s muscle memory, and I’ve said it gets easier every time.”

However, things were “especially difficult” for “Love and Thunder” because he had to gain more weight than before. Fans also believe that the actor looks bigger on screen than his other Thor movies.

When asked why, he said, “It’s just exhausting.” Hemsworth continued, “I don’t know, maybe I’m getting older, but it’s starting to hurt more.” The actor also revealed that he had started training for the film before the closure.

Hemsworth also remembers “eating” and “training” for a long time during quarantine. “There’s nothing else to do,” he explained. He then surprised everyone on set by appearing “bigger than [he’d] ever.”

The actor also revealed how surprised his wife, Elsa Pataky was with his change in appearance. The actress and model who has a cameo in the film called her ripped body “too much” and advised her to take a break from training.

While her “boyfriends” are proud of her new body, her “female friends and family” are shocked. This also discourages him from getting big for his future roles. Hemsworth also stars with Pataky in the action film “Interceptor,” due out in May 2022.

The actor’s future projects include “Extraction 2,” the sequel to “Extraction” scheduled for 2023, and the upcoming film “Star Trek 4” with Chris Pine. He will also star in “Furiosa,” which opens in 2024.
