Here’s How Chris Hemsworth’s Kids Reacted to Seeing Thor’s Hammer in Hollywood

Written by on June 3, 2024

Instead of wondering if they’re worthy of Thor’s hammer, Chris Hemsworth‘s kids are more concerned about whether or not their superhero dad actually signed the Hollywood prop.

Hemsworth, 40, and his three children – daughter India, 12, and 11-year-old twin boys Tristan and Sasha – whom he shares with his wife, Elsa Pataky, 47, recently visited Universal Studios Hollywood. In a video posted to Hemsworth’s Instagram page on Sunday, the family walks up to Thor’s signed hammer in a glass display case marked “celebrity authentics.”

“Is that a copyright signature?” one of the kids can be heard asking in the clip.

“I don’t remember signing that,” Hemsworth says, shaking his head.

“Didn’t want to scare the kids but I could’ve definitely called Mjolnir if I wanted to…” Hemsworth captioned the video. 

Hemsworth portrayed the hammer-wielding God of Thunder in The Avengers movies and Thor series, including: 2011’s Thor, 2013’s Thor: The Dark World, 2017’s Thor: Ragnarok and 2022’s Thor: Love and Thunder.

Last month, the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga star’s kids reacted to his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony and after-party. Hemsworth told ET that he thinks the moment gave him some cool dad points but that India had another plan in mind for his big day.

“My daughter last night was like, ‘Hey, what are we doing tomorrow?’ And I said, ‘It’s the star ceremony.’ She’s like, ‘I thought we were going to Six Flags?’ I was like, ‘No that’s the next day.’  She was like, ‘Oh, cool, OK,'” he quipped about their conversation. “I think she thinks it’s cool. She thinks Six Flags and theme parks are cool anyway.”

At the podium, Hemsworth gave his family a special shout-out.

“I want to say thank you to my beautiful wife who has been here for my entire career basically by my side,” he said to Pataky, whom he’s been married to since 2010. “Endlessly encouraging and supportive, and it doesn’t get lost upon me that she put aside her own dreams to support mine. I am forever in your debt. The fact that nothing I do in these moments and these occasions, all these events, none of this is special without you by my side and I love you.” 

Hemsworth had equally heartwarming words for his children.

“My kids who are endlessly inspiring for so many reasons,” he continued. “They are an abundance of joy and passion. They inspire me to increase my VO2 max in the strength and conditioning, just to wrangle them and keep up with them. Their ability to live in the moment and to dive into life head first and to have fun and to be joyous and playful is a constant reminder that that’s what life’s about. And it’s a constant inspiration. So I love you guys.”
