Chris Hemsworth charters a private jet from Sydney back to Byron Bay after filming scenes for Thor

Chris Hemsworth spent his week hard at work on the set of Thor: Love and Thunder in Sydney.

On Friday, the 37-year-old chartered a private jet back home to Byron Bay, and to his wife Elsa Pataky and their three young children.

Instead of opting to do the eight-hour drive home, the actor was seen at a Sydney airport chatting to jet staff before boarding his one-hour flight up north.

It was his second trip by private jet in four days, with the actor also boarding a chartered flight to Sydney alongside his co-star Matt Damon on Sunday. 

Despite his penchant for private flights, Chris is known to be a climate change activist. 

He marched alongside daughter India in a strike at Byron Bay in 2019, calling for action on the issue. 

In an Instagram post at the time, the Avengers star shared a clip of himself carrying young India in crowd shouting: ‘What do we want? Climate action. When do we want it? Now.’ 

He also wrote in a lengthy post that we must, ‘move away from the burning of fossil fuels, no more new oil, gas, coal projects’.  

Chris added: ‘The climate crisis is upon us. Children understand the basic science that if we continue to pollute the planet climate change will worsen and they won’t have a future. None of us will. The planet will die’.  

 

He appeared to be accompanied by a personal trainer, dressed in a white top and black cap, who also enjoyed a short conversation with the staff. 

Chris looked ready to kick start the weekend with his family, dressed in a casual ensemble.

He wore a sleeveless shirt – that drew attention to his bulging biceps – along with black shorts.
