Marvel’s Thor actor Chris Hemsworth is set to receive a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce’s Walk of Fame Selection Committee is inducting Hemsworth into the “Motion Picture” category alongside other new star recipients Mahershala Ali, Laurence Fishburne, Spike Lee, Julia Roberts, Octavia Spencer, and Batman. Yup, Batman is also getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Hemsworth was born in Australia as the middle child of actors Luke and Liam Hemsworth. He first appeared in episodes of TV series like Neighbours and Marshall Law before joining the cast of the long-running Australian soap opera Home and Away. His first film role was (briefly) playing George Kirk in J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek. He would play the lead role in Thor just two years later, a role he has since played in two other Thor movies, four Avengers movies, and other appearances in video games, short films, etc.
