During a Q&A session at the BFI London Film Festival, she praised Hemsworth, saying (via Variety<\/a>):<\/p>\n Thompson remarked that the Australian actor is \u201ca baby with muscles, a very big infant,\u201d who has \u201cno inhibitions.\u201d She added that the 42-year-old actor \u201cwill just do anything, you know, to get the laugh and to discover, so it\u2019s a pleasure to work with him,\u201d praising the Thor star.<\/p>\n It seems \u201cinfant\u201d is Thompson\u2019s favorite description, as she used similar words for Taika Waititi. She described Waititi as \u201ca huge infant, just, he\u2019s like an infant with a bank account.\u201d<\/p>\n She also praised his childlike enthusiasm for filmmaking, revealing, \u201cIt\u2019s terrifying.\u201d Furthermore, Thompson added, \u201cHe should be stopped,\u201d implying that his childlike love for cinema has no limitations. Notably, the 42-year-old actress has shared the screen with Hemsworth in Avengers: Endgame, Thor: Ragnarok, and Thor: Love and Thunder, portraying the role of Valkyrie (or Val) in the films.<\/p>\n She also discussed her experience working on big-budget Marvel productions and why she sought that opportunity in her acting career. \u201cIt\u2019s so goofy making those movies sometimes,\u201d Thompson confessed.<\/p>\n She likened the experience of making action-packed Marvel films to that of a child. \u201cThe mechanism of making those films requires a place of pure imagination, you know, where you just have to play like a kid,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Thompson is known for balancing her career between intimate indie dramas and large-scale blockbusters. She explained her desire to take on a big-budget Marvel film, saying she wanted to test her ability to handle a production of that scale.<\/p>\n \u201cI really wanted to make a movie like that because I\u2019m not sure I can do that, and I really want to figure out if I can. And it was just so fun. It really, really freed me up,\u201d the Hedda star said.<\/p>\n The post Tessa Thompson Calls Chris Hemsworth \u2018Baby With Muscles, A Very Big Infant\u2019<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Tessa Thompson has some unusual words of praise for her Thor co-star Chris Hemsworth.\u00a0Thompson spoke about Hemsworth at the BFI London Film Festival\u2019s Screen Talk on Monday, where she was promoting her new film\u00a0Hedda.
