Chris Hemsworth has made a name for himself in Hollywood with his role as Thor in the MCU along with some other prominent action flicks. Even after having quite an amazing career with a basket of blockbusters, the star didn’t have a good time after the release of his last MCU movie. Thor: Love and Thunder opened to a disastrous response from everywhere. But things went so South, the actor even made a weird request to Dwayne Johnson.

Dwayne Johnson and Chris Hemsworth both had their big releases last year in the forms of Black Adam and Thor 4 respectively. Although neither of the two was successful in creating a lasting impression, both actors got nominated for the 2023 edition of the Kids’ Choice Awards which led to a hilarious scenario.

What did Chris Hemsworth beg from Dwayne Johnson?

Kids’ Choice Awards is a prominent children’s award show running since 1988 which has seen several famous faces winning the Blip. The program has a huge fan base and is still popular among the viewers. For the 2023 version of the show, when both Chris Hemsworth and Dwayne Johnson found their name on the list of nominations, the former admitted that his kids will vote for the Black Adam fame.

Hemsworth posted a photo of him with his daughter India from the set of Thor 4 where they co-starred and stated that as his kids won’t vote for him, he will hope The Rock’s kids to do so.

The former WWE Wrestler also responded in a friendly manner that he would vote for the Avengers: Endgame star- “I’m voting for you!!!”. The actors have also shared a tough competition in this field earlier where Chris Hemsworth ended up losing two Kids’ Choice Awards to the Fast X actor. Although Hemsworth also won one against Johnson for his Ghostbusters in 2017, Dwayne Johnson’s Kids’ Choice Awards count would still be far higher.

Unfortunately, the Extraction star also lost this year’s Kids’ Choice for Best Actor to The Rock for Black Adam which moved his tally to three head-to-head losses. But with several projects in the pipeline, it will be hoped that Chris Hemsworth might win more in the future.

Soon after Chris Hemsworth gained a huge spike in popularity after Thor: Ragnarok and Avengers: Infinity War, Taika Waititi presented Thor 4 in such a way that attracted a lot of internet hate. However, the star made sure to give a great comeback with his recently released Extraction 2 on Netflix.

Extraction turned out to be a grand project for the streaming giant after it established new viewership records. As Sam Hargrave and the Tyler Rake actor returned with a sequel recently, the audiences and the critics praised the movie collectively. The success of the sequel has also led the makers to announce a third movie in the action franchise.

The actor is also set to be spotted in the Mad Max: Fury Road prequel Furiosa which is to be directed by George Miller and stars Anya Taylor-Joy and Tom Burke alongside Chris Hemsworth. Besides that, the father to three will also voice Optimus Prime in a Transformers prequel titled Transformers One.
