Chris Hemsworth gets star on Hollywood Walk of Fame; Robert Downey Jr. playfully roasts him

Chris Hemsworth received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and his longtime Avengers co-star Robert Downey Jr. marked the occasion with a humorous public roast of everyone's favourite ‘Thor’ actor.

Downey asked their Marvel colleagues Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, Scarlett Johansson, and Chris Evans to describe Hemsworth in three words. Their responses had the audience in stitches.

“What is Chris Hemsworth?” Downey asked. “Renner says, ‘Absurdly, annoyingly amazing.’ Ruffalo came in strong with ‘friend from work.’ Scarlett got to the heart of it with ‘sensitive leading lady.’ Captain America calls him the ‘second best Chris.’ And I’ll bring it to the here and now: There is no one who deserves it more. He is ‘Hollywood star recipient.'”

Downey praised Hemsworth as one of the most remarkable people he knows.

Hemsworth received his star just a day before the premiere of his latest movie, George Miller's 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.'

Downey expressed his excitement for the film, saying he "cannot wait" to see it and predicting it will be ‘the film of 2024.

‘I wrote all of my comments myself, which is why they are going to be quite insightful and brilliant,’ Downey continued.

‘Beyond the cape and the hammer is a contagious Aussie charm. You are a remarkable human being. You are a legend. Chris is a bit daunting to describe. He’s very elusive because of the pretty packaging. However, upon further inspection…down under…he has a true wit and depth of soul and it has been my sincere pleasure to know you. You keep us Hollywood folk on our toes because you’re just a real deal,’ he added.

Chris Hemsworth had his family by his side to support him at his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony.

The star was joined by his wife Elsa Pataky and their 10-year-old twin sons, Sasha and Tristan, as they posed for pictures together at the event on May 23. His daughter India Rose was also in attendance but opted out of getting her photo taken, according to Us Weekly.
