Chris Hemsworth
Similar to Robert Downey Jr., it’s nearly impossible to envision anyone other than Chris Hemsworth portraying the Norse god of thunder, Thor. While Thor’s upbringing took place in mythical Asgard, Hemsworth was born in Melbourne, Australia, and spent his formative years in the Australian Outback, surrounded by “crocodiles and buffalo.” Attending Heathmont College in the eponymous city, his passion for surfing rivaled his love for acting during his youth.
Although he appears notably younger in this photo, adorned with frosted tips, it’s evident how he would one day embody the role of a god.
