Chris Hemsworth

My dad works in child protection and he's spent many, many years in that line of work.

My dad talks about the times when we'd play backyard cricket: If I got bowled out, I'd just refuse to let go of the bat and swing it at anyone who tried to take it away from me. I like to think that's been tempered a bit over the years.

I grew up in a culture of motorbikes. So I like racing just fine. Quite a lot, actually. That was when I was a boy in Australia. And I never really made the jump to cars after that.

First time I looked at a Formula One car in person, I just stared at the cockpit, figuring I'd never get in there. The drivers wear the whole car like a tight-fitting suit.

I enjoy working on a movie that lets your imagination run wild, it's great to be a part of and watch.

I put the costume on and said 'It's not very comfortable, but it looks amazing,' so it's all good.

For me, life is about experience and being a good person.
