Chris Hemsworth has a different perspective and is opposed to his daughter following in his footsteps. His motives are a message of awareness about the importance of preserving innocence since fame at an early age can cloud the essence of childhood.
Chris Hemsworth, the Hollywood star, has three beautiful children: a girl and two boys, with his wife, also an actress, Elsa Pataky. His eldest daughter has already taken her first steps in the world of acting and the actor has revealed that he really does not want his daughter, India, to pursue an acting career at a young age. India had a role in the film Thor: Love and Thunder, playing the daughter of the god hunter, Gorr, and sharing the screen with her father.
Despite being proud of that, he would prefer that her eleven-year-old daughter prioritize her childhood and enjoy her childhood instead of entering the world of work when she is so young. Regarding working alongside her, he said: “It felt like a unique and fun family experience, but I don't want my children to be actors. “It was just a special experience we had.”
The filming of Thor: Love and Thunder was not the first time India has been involved in the work of her famous father. In the past, Chris had shared photos of his daughter and him on the set of other films in which, although the girl did not participate, she accompanied her father to the sets during recordings. The curious thing about this last installment of the film is that the entire family was part of it.
His wife played a werewolf with whom Thor had had a romantic bond in the past. His two children played Thor when he was a child and regarding the role played by his eldest daughter, the actor confessed: “Originally, it was supposed to be just a small appearance, just a quick moment in the movie. “Then the character expanded with changes in the story.”
In an interview, Chris shared his perspective on the topic, saying, “I want her to have a childhood and I think she does too.” He added that he advised her daughter to engage in activities appropriate to her age, such as going to school, riding horses, and having fun. He believes these are things that, once he gets started in the entertainment industry, he will find difficult to do.
Diving headlong into acting right now can lead her to miss out on many childhood experiences that she won't be able to experience later. Although he does not want her daughter to follow in her footsteps currently, he is willing to support her in the future, when she is older, if he finally decides to pursue an acting career. He made it clear that he would be happy to support and guide her when the time came.
Recently, after discovering through genetic analysis that he has a high risk of developing Alzheimer's disease in the future, the actor decided to reduce his workload. Chris Hemsworth has made the decision to prioritize his health and well-being, simplifying his life, although not to retire completely.
Knowing that he could lose his memory in his old age, he has decided to accumulate all the good memories possible now with his loved ones. He wants to dedicate more time to being with his wife, Elsa, and his children; India, Trista and Sasha, enjoying those family moments as much as possible.
