“I felt stuck in what I had been doing,” Hemsworth toldThe Times.
“I’d run out of things to say creatively and Furiosa reinvigorated the artistic energy that was dormant…
I was bored of myself…
I was not bored of the opportunities I’d been given, but it all started to feel familiar.
I’d done film upon film that fell into a similar space and I wasn’t stretching myself.
We did so with Thor: Ragnarok.
But for Love and Thunder, for me it got a bit jokey.
But if Hemsworth does make another Thor movie, he’s not sure how his performance would change.
And Furiosa did.”
“It felt harsh,” recalled Hemsworth.
“And it bothers me, especially from heroes.
It was an eye-roll for me, people bashing the superhero space.
Those guys had films that didn’t work too–we all have.
Were they all wrong?'”
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga will hit theaters on May 24.
