"At this point, I'm happy to be part of something special. As an actor I liked to choose scripts that I'm passionate about"
About this Quote
The second sentence is a preemptive defense disguised as craft talk. “As an actor” narrows the claim to something respectable: taste, discernment, professionalism. In an industry where actors are routinely reduced to casting decisions, “choose scripts” asserts agency. The caveat is that audiences know how limited that agency can be for working actors, especially those whose careers are built inside big studio machinery. “Passionate about” becomes a soft shield against cynicism: if a project is commercial, at least it was heartfelt; if it’s artistically risky, the motivation is integrity.
The subtext is career management. Hemsworth is aligning himself with the modern expectation that entertainers should have a curatorial identity, not just a filmography. He’s telling fans and gatekeepers: I’m not chasing checks; I’m chasing meaning - and if I’m in something massive, I’m grateful, not calculating. That combination reads as likable, and likability is its own form of currency.
