#ChrisHemsworth got a little too muscle-y for his wife’s taste in prep for #ThorLoveAndThunder https://t.co/pG7DCdyZT4

Thor 3 was his best look by far!!

I agree with Elsa!

It seems to be bit of a requirement for the marvel males to really beef up. I think Barry Keoghan mentioned that it was almost culture of it lol.

hollywood’s steroid lobbyists gotta get paid i guess

Yeah, marvel supplies the actors with trainers who supply them with gear.

It does feel mandatory and it's ridiculous, like looking at Hugh Jackman in X-Men to Logan, like WTF dude?

But I did love this about Eternals:
When joining "Eternals," Brian Tyree Henry originally thought he was going to have to bulk up like costar Kumail Nanjiani to play a superhero. He was stunned to learn that wasn't the case.

During the film's virtual press conference in October, which Insider attended, Henry recounted when he was first approached by "Eternals" director Chloé Zhao and producer Nate Moore.

"I remember the first time that they were like, "So… we want you to be a superhero.' I was like, 'Cool. How much weight do I have to lose?'" Henry said.

"Chloé was like, 'What are you talking about? We want you exactly as you are,'" Henry continued, adding how much that moment meant to him. "To be a black man, to have someone look at you and say, 'We want you exactly the way you are,' is unlike anything that I've ever felt."

body wise i'm going with thor 1. face wise he looked the best in thor 3 but yeah, his body wasn't my thing

[gossymer]

I still remember his face in the first rebooted star Trek movie and then wondering what the hell happened to him when Thor came out, cause omg how.

[miwa201]

it's the blonde eyebrows i think

[__onthebound]

Thor 1 was best body. Thor 3 with the short hair is hot. Combine them together

He said this because he read my comment in the FFAF, lol.

But really I agree. Muscles are nice, but like... Attainable muscles. Not 6000 calories + 8 hours in the gym and probs steroids muscles.

Hugh Jackman in the first X-Men to whichever Wolverine movie where he was overly ripped really shows how the male gaze also effects men. I wish there was more discussion around it instead of "workout like Wolverine!" articles in Men's Health.

wolverine’s cage intro in x1 🥰

like no shit rogue ignored those twinks fighting for her attention in the first two movies, her type is tall slim and insufferable martial artists who dress like a-team characters and refuse to discuss their pasts

[potter_lover456]

No lie, I do think that little neck roll he does in the cage was probably my late sexually awakening 🥵

I'd have ignored them too if I was Rogue.

[headcaseheidi]

during the x2 school raid when the kids are cornered, he jetés off the balcony and shish-kabobs like three dudes at once 💕

[missyxxmisch]

face was the best in 3. He looked soooo ugly in thor 1. Like what was wrong with his face? too much makeup, idk.

[jenfolder]

It was the dyed eyebrows fam, they just didn't work.

And his beard too. You can see the difference here:
