Video transcript

MARNI DIXIT: Hi, I'm Marni Dixit from Yahoo! Lifestyle. And we are at the Sydney premiere of "Thor: Love and Thunder." Now, how does one prepare for a nude scene, though? Is there more glute stuff? What's going on there?

CHRIS HEMSWORTH: Yeah, you know, I worked my butt off, literally, for this film, as I do all the Thor films. I ate a ridiculous amount of protein and work out a lot, and a lot, and a lot. And that's-- so you put in the hard work and, hopefully, get the results. [LAUGHS]

MARNI DIXIT: Amazing. Thank you so much.

CHRIS HEMSWORTH: Thank you.

TAIKA WAITITI: Filming on the day, weirdly, everyone from the production office and the accounting office happened to turn up and just need to talk to the crew members about getting their invoices and time cards.

Then, apart from that, personally, he's worked so hard on all of this. It's kind of weird not to show it, Don't you think?

MARNI DIXIT: Yeah, [? I think so. ?] [LAUGHS]

TAIKA WAITITI: It's also, I mean, quietly, business-- in a business sense, I think we might sell a few more tickets.

MARNI DIXIT: [LAUGHS]
