Chris Hemsworth blessed us all with an eye-popping snap to celebrate the end of filming for Thor: Love and Thunder – and also commemorated ‘National Don’t Flex Day’ while he was at it.

The 37-year-old has been out in Australia filming the upcoming Marvel flick alongside a string of stars, including Tessa Thompson, Natalie Portman and Matt Damon.

Taking to Instagram, he confirmed that the shoot has officially wrapped, sharing a very casual snap as he showed off his bulging muscles in a white vest top and black jeans.

‘That’s a wrap on Thor Love and Thunder, it’s also national don’t flex day so I thought this super relaxed photo was appropriate,’ Chris captioned the upload as he posed beside director Taika Waititi.

‘The film is gonna be bats**t crazy off the wall funny and might also pull a heart string or two.

‘Lots of love, lots of thunder! Thank you to all the cast and crew who made this another incredible Marvel journey.

‘Buckle in, get ready and see ya in cinemas!! @taikawaititi @marvelstudios 📷 @jasinboland.’

As thirsty as fans predictably were in the comments section, no one was more impressed than his fellow superhero actors.

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson slid into the replies to pen: ‘Congrats my brother.’

Jeremy Renner followed suit, posting: ‘Congrats brother!!!’

Jason Mamoa got in on the action, commenting: ‘Congratulations bro.’

As Leslie Jordan said what was secretly on all our minds, adding: ‘I’m not scared. Without your hammer, you’re nuthin’ [sic].’

The fourth instalment of the Thor franchise is due to be on the big screen next May, and it looks as though the gang had a blast while filming the flick Down Under.

In fact, pictures of Taika cutting loose with Tessa – who plays Valkyrie – and his rumoured girlfriend Rita Ora all but broke the internet last month, when the trio were seen snuggling up over cosy drinks.

Photos obtained by Mail Online showed the producer and Anywhere singer appearing to lean in for a peck as they caught up with Tessa.

Further snaps show the stars sharing a laugh while hanging out, with the Dear White People actress leaning in to Taika’s chest.

The images sent fans into a tailspin, with all three stars trending on Twitter soon after they emerged.

However, it has now been claimed that Marvel bosses were left unimpressed by the buzz, and ‘reprimanded’ the Oscar-winner.

According to a source close to Thor: Love and Thunder, the behaviour seen in the photo is ‘not exactly the image they’re looking to project in relation to one of their biggest franchises’.

The Daily Telegraph added that, even though Taika is known for being a ‘party animal’, Marvel bosses think the photos ‘crossed a line’.

Thor: Love and Thunder is slated to hit cinemas on May 6, 2022.
