Interestingly enough, Chris Hemsworth reportedly almost lost the role of Marvel's Thor to his younger brother Liam Hemsworth — until a little sibling rivalry kicked in to land him the gig, as he told W Magazine back in 2017. "I came in kind of with a little, I guess, motivation and maybe frustration that my little brother had gotten further than me," he admitted. "It's a little family, sibling rivalry sort of kicked up in me."
Despite a little competition, though, it turns out that Chris and Liam — who are six years apart — are actually pretty close and have a special bond. In a 2019 interview with GQ, Liam revealed that he often turned to his older brother for advice. "He's my hero," Liam told the outlet. "I look up to him. He's honestly my last call, when I find myself in a position where I'm 50-50 about a script, then I call Chris. And his opinion, I trust more than anyone in my team."
And even though the media often likes to play up a rivalry between them, Liam also disclosed that there was actually little competition between him and Chris, due to the fact that there's not much crossover between their professional careers. He explained, "'Thor' was the only time when we were really up against each other."
Still, we definitely have our fingers crossed for the two brothers to star together in a film someday!
