Chris Hemsworth, 31, feared for his life when he visited a prison.

The actor wanted to find out what life was like behind bars as part of his research for his role in Blackhat, in which he plays a hacker who gets broken out of prison, but admits he had second thoughts when he arrived at the correctional facility.

He recalled: “(We) got to the prison and I just felt, ‘what am I doing here?’ And the warden says to us: ‘Okay, this is at your own risk. All they do is think about ways to kill people, so, just so you know’. I was like: ‘What are we doing here then?’”

Chris was relieved to find he got off lightly with the inmates thanks to one of his most famous roles: “I didn’t even think about the Thor thing. Straight away, a lot of them had seen Thor, and it was like: ‘Oh, Thor’s in here.’” - BANG Showbiz
