The One Lie Chris Hemsworth Usually Tells To Get Movie Roles

Publish date: 2024-04-10

It makes sense that Chris Hemsworth, who is 6 feet, 3 inches, helped his daughter lie about her height, as he has admitted to usually lying about his own height for roles. He ranked second in being the tallest Marvel actor, behind Paul Bettany, and fellow co-star Chris Pratt rolled his eyes when he was asked which of the Marvel Chrises was the tallest.

"There are certainly things I've wanted to go up for which I've been totally wrong for, physically," Chris told Radio Times in a 2016 interview. "And I normally lie about my height and say I'm shorter."

Chris mentioned that the height lie can go both ways, meaning that being tall can sometimes help him secure a role. For example, one of his first roles was in a kids television show called "The Saddle Club." Although he told Vanity Fair he thought he did a bad acting job in the episode, he also joked about how he was able to pull off portraying a veterinarian as an 18 or 19-year-old actor.
