| Chris Hemsworth says that although he loves acting, the lifestyle in Hollywood can be overwhelming.In a recent interview with Modern Luxury the star of Thor explained the challenges he faces as an actor: “I love what I do as an actor, but when you are surrounded by it constantly, it becomes a bit suffocating.”;
He goes on to describe the selfish nature of the job. “Acting is the most self-absorbed world, where you are thinking about your feelings. How do I feel in this scene? You are constantly having to self-analyze… so you are internalizing and thinking, thinking, thinking about me. ‘Oh, I didn’t get that… and I wanted that one, and am I any good?’ It’s just a horrible, noisy conversation.”; But now Hemsworth has moved away from the LA lifestyle and settled back home in Australia with his family. He says having kids has changed his priorities as an actor: “We were living shoulder to shoulder in the suburbs and thought that’s not how we want our kids to grow up. It’s no longer all about me, which is quite refreshing. Once the kids arrived, I was like, ‘Wow, this is what life is about.'”; When asked what he does day to day with his newfound peace and quiet – he had a heartwarming response, “[I Wait] for my kids to come give me a hug and tell me they love me.” |
