Chris Hemsworth explains why he wants his daughter, India Rose, to hold off on acting following her performance in Thor: Love and Thunder.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Hemsworth explained how his daughter India Rose’s role in Thor 4 expanded and why he wants her to halt her Hollywood career. “You know, that was originally supposed to be just a super quick little moment in the film, and then the character expanded due to the story changing,” Hemsworth said, regarding his daughter’s role in the film, continuing.

“I said, ‘Oh, do you want to do some dialog in the film?’ And she’s like, ‘Yeah, cool!’ And she was a pro and loved it.” Hemsworth explained that he wants his daughter to “have a childhood” before adding, “I think so does she.”

The Australian actor also said he is open to her returning to acting if she expresses enthusiasm as she gets older and encourages her to try different things, as a career in acting may leave her missing out on other activities.
