Meanwhile, the Thor actor explained that his 'consultants,' India Rose, Sasha, and Tristan, took care of their respective roles and "played a big part" in assisting Hemsworth in joining the Josh Cooley-directed prequel.

He said, "They were in the background as I was recording a lot of these lines. They were kind of yelling suggestions or trying to distract me. It was cool."
