Speaking about his body, he told the US edition of GQ magazine:

"It's helped me get a job, sure. But you hope it's not the only thing that helped."

Despite his good looks, Chris, 28, remains down to earth and admitted he finds some other actors' pre-shoot rituals strange.

He explained: "I worked with a guy once who would chant, 'I'm beautiful and I have a secret, I'm beautiful and I have a secret.'"

Meanwhile, the actor - whose wife Elsa Pataky gave birth to their little girl India Rose in May - revealed his own unusual method for preparing to play the alcoholic huntsman in Snow White.

Chris started spinning around in circles before his scenes and explained:

"It really shakes everything up, and you feel a bit more alive. I actually started spinning in circles before the scenes where I didn't need to be drunk."
