Chris Hemsworth reveals he's quitting Hollywood to spend more time with his family

Chris Hemsworth has announced he's quitting Hollywood to spend more time with his family.



The Australian actor, 35, who's best known for playing Thor in the Avengers franchise, says he wants to prioritise his wife Elsa Pataky, 42, and their three children.

Chris has spent 12 months making movies back-to-back and is taking the next year off.

He told the Sydney Daily Telegraph : "This year I probably won't shoot anything. I just want to be at home now with my kids.

"They are at a very important age. They are still young and they are aware when I leave more than before."

The hunky actor is dad to a daughter, India, seven, and twin boys Sasha and Tristan, five.

He is said to be planning to spend his time off at the family's home in Byron Bay, Australia, where they have lived for the last five years.
