Chris Hemsworth got some inspiration from a fellow actor when it came to naming his sons.

In a new interview with Variety, the Thor star, 40, revealed that he is a big fan of Brad Pitt's work, adding that when he was growing up, he and his brothers would watch movies like Legends of the Fall on a loop.

"There's never been a more beautiful man on screen," Hemsworth said of Pitt's character Tristan Ludlow. The Marvel star shared that he later rewatched the movie with his wife Elsa Pataky when she was pregnant with their twin sons.

"Is this not the coolest character in the world?" Hemsworth recalled asking his wife. "I think one of our kids needs to be named Tristan."

Hemsworth then shared that their other son, Sasha, is named after a stuntman friend.

He also shared pictures of his daughter climbing rocks, running through a field and a few snaps of their campsite.

"Nothing better than a little getaway with one of my besties ❤️," the proud dad wrote in his caption.

In February, Hemsworth shared a collection of videos on Instagram from his ski trip with his three kids as they enjoyed a snow terrain park, flipping forwards and backward while skiing and snowboarding down the slopes.

The proud dad caught all three of his kids in action as they raced down the slopes, whooping and hollering as they landed.

"My kids continuing to do wild s--- that makes me feel incredibly inadequate on the slopes! 😂🤙❄️," he joked in the caption.
