For six years, Chris has played a hero on the big screen as the title character in the Thor franchise, but in an interview with GQ Australia he admits to being less than a role model at home.

“My wife and I fell in love, had kids, didn’t really see each other for a few years, then fell back in love,” he said.

He also revealed that he’s often put his work first as he struggles to maintain A-list status in Hollywood. “I feel like I’m at this crucial point in my career – I’ve just got to set up for longevity or I’ll slip off.”

Though life has gotten better for the pair, Chris offered this advice for other Hollywood fathers and husbands: “Make sure you have date night even if it’s once in a blue moon, because most of the time you’re just too tired and you’d actually prefer to sleep.”
