Chris Hemsworth | Thor: Ragnarok

Marvel movies are known to have turned their actors into superstars in the movie industry, and it goes without saying that investments in these actors aren’t cheap. Since the earliest movie releases, most actors have started with modest salaries in their earliest roles to make eight-figure salaries in the present. One of these actors is Australian heartthrob Chris Hemsworth, who was paid $150 thousand for his role in Thor.

However, it is worth pointing that the Aussie actor received $15 million for starring in Thor: Ragnarok. He is currently the highest-paid Marvel Cinematic Universe star, making a jaw-dropping $76 million in 2019. Indeed, Hemsworth’s cinderella story in the film industry is nothing short of extraordinary. Aside from his roles in the Thor franchise, Hemsworth also swung his hammer in a related feature, The Avengers. The actor also has leading roles in Snow White and the Huntsman, Rush, and In the Heart of the Sea.
