‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ Star Chris Pratt Says Him and Chris Hemsworth Are the Best of Buds

May 20, 2022

If you’re like us you probably can’t wait for the premiere of “Thor: Love and Thunder” in theaters, which will once again bring not only Thor but also Star Lord back to the big screen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In the film series the two characters are decently friendly. However, the stars who play these characters, Chris Pratt and Chris Hemsworth are actually pretty good friends in real life. So much so that Pratt spoke about his love for Hemsworth in a recent interview with SFX Magazine.

“I love being able to work with Chris Hemsworth,” Pratt tells the magazine. “He is like Thor in real life. He’s the sweetest dude. Super-funny. Works so hard. It was great. I loved every minute of shooting [Thor 4]. I’m so grateful that they brought us along. It was neat to see him bring this to Australia and shoot it there, with all of his fellow countrymen. And with director Taika Waititi, who is just outrageous. His style is so unique.”

The film isn’t set to premiere in theaters for another few months. Although, recently we got a first look at the new movie with the release of the first trailer for the upcoming MCU film.

Marvel Studios describes Thor: Love and Thunder as follows: “The film finds Thor (Chris Hemsworth) on a journey unlike anything he’s ever faced – a quest for inner peace. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who – to Thor’s surprise – inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher’s vengeance and stop him before it’s too late.”
