Hollywood loves Chris Hemsworth

The new face of Hollywood is Australian. Few people knew who Chris Hemsworth was a year ago. But now the 25-year-old from Melbourne, Australia, looks set to become Hollywood’s biggest new star. Chris played George Kirk in the new Star Trek film, which is one of the biggest films of this year. And he will be in five more films in the next two years, including the horror The Cabin in the Woods, the war drama Red Dawn and the superhero film Thor. Asked why Chris has become so successful, MGM chairperson Mary Parent said, “He’s a man. You just want to watch him. And there are very few 25-year-old actors who are men.”
