He is the Hollywood actor who immortalized roles working on innumerable projects, but is best known for his role as and in ‘Thor’. His fans and admirers have not stopped showering love and praise on him, nor have his critics.
Born in Melbourne on August 11th, 1983, Chris Hemsworth is an Australian. He was born to simple parents and is the second in line of three siblings. The family moved constantly which affected Chris’ studies. While he was growing he constantly changed minds about his life ambition — one time as a clothes’ designer, another time as a lawyer or a doctor, and yet again later he thought of boxing; by his own admission, he was drawn to and inspired by different things at different points in life.
He is believed to have been attracted to acting because he has the privilege to wear different garbs in his professional capacity as an actor. As a boy, he was also significantly into sports like swimming and surfing. That explains how he transformed from an ordinary teenager into a tall and muscular, handsome man. This was a direct gateway to Hollywood.
Chris was bitten by the acting bug and started an early career at just 18. He acted in several Australian tele-series. But he soon realized that his acting dreams were more king-size than what he could expect to get in his homeland, Australia. He moved to Los Angeles in the United States to try his luck. He started by studying American English to brighten his acting scope in Hollywood. He soon got accepted as a native in large-scale productions. “Star Trek”, “In The Heart of The Sea”, “The Cabin In The Woods”, “Extraction”, “Blackhat”, “A Perfect Getaway”, “Ghostbusters”, and ‘Thor” are some of his memorable works.
He revealed in an interview later that if it hadn’t been for ‘Thor’, he would have thrown away his acting career to the winds, packed his bags, and made a homeward journey. In fact, he was already preparing to sit on the plane for Australia when he was called back to play the iconic role. He underwent several hours of intensive physical training for weeks to get into an impressive shape desired for the role. ‘Thor’ was a runaway hit, and established Hemsworth as an actor of merit. ‘The Avengers’ followed in 2012.
Chris easily features among Hollywood A-listers today. He is one of the highest-paid actors in the world, and his net worth has been estimated to be $140 million. If you have been trying to reach the Hollywood heartthrob, here are 3 ways to consider.
Connect Through His Agent and Publicist
Celebrities are a brand in themselves and social media influencers. Event organizers and businessmen are perpetually looking out to rope them in for product launches, promotional campaigns, commercial endorsements, charity auctions, and more. Their presence gives visibility to the product/services/event in question. Journalists also have a hard time managing appointments for personal interviews with their choice of celebrity unless they approach the right channels.
Celebrity agents, managers, and publicists are the key people who manage the social and professional image of a celebrity. They handle their appointments and are usually the go-to people to manage a date with the target celebrity. Today it is mandatory to contact a celebrity of rank and merit to make your brand a success. Chris Hemsworth features on everyone’s wish list today, and there are no prizes for guessing why. The problem is that making contact with a busy star like him is no mean task.
You may contact Bryan Lourd of Creative Artists Agency (CAA) or Robin Baum of Slate Public Relations to get to Chris.
Send a Fan Mail
The old, traditional way of letting your star hero know how he has influenced you, and how deeply and reverently you think of him and his works is to write him a snail mail, and request for a signed autograph. A small, thoughtful gift with the letter can work too, but be mindful of the fact that nothing should come across as crass. You should frame the language and tone of the letter sensitively, and let it be short and sweet with no overt and dramatic gestures of uncontrolled emotions. Remember that they are busy people and are daily inundated with similar fan mails to which they need to respond. Your letter should contain nothing that could end up in their trash bin.
Mention all necessary information in the mail so that they or their team can revert to it. Send your autograph request along with a self-addressed stamped envelope to either of the following addresses —

Through Social Media Platforms
Celebrities influence people more powerfully and effectively through different social media platforms. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc, are not only convenient for them to touch base with their fans, but these platforms also help them stay relevant and consistent. However, you need to first ensure that you are accessing the real account of the target celebrity as fake accounts abound.
