Chris was rejected and Liam Hemsworth was Selected As Thor but they called Chris Back because they Wanted "Older Version" of Liam 😂

It's hilarious how attractive people think they have some guardian angel protecting them when it's really just their looks.

I'm sure he doesn't mind the six movie deal thing now after all the MARVEL Movie money he's made.
