Chris Hemsworth admits that working alongside Anthony Hopkins everyday on the set of Thor was a 'blessing'.

The former Home and Away actor was promoting the latest marvel comic book movie at San Diego's Comic Con this weekend, as well as being revealed as part of The Avengers line up.

The movie sees him take on his first major lead role in the Kenneth Branagh directed movie, which also stars Natalie Portman, Stellan Skarsgard and Idris Elba.

In an interview with Collider he said: "I’ll tell you one particular story. Working with Anthony Hopkins every day is a blessing. The guy is incredibly humble and obviously talented, and I could keep going.

"But, we were in this one scene where we were having a big argument. It was all going along and he was doing it one way and it was great, and then Ken came up and whispered something in his ear and he said, 'Oh, that’s a good idea.'

"And then, we started doing the take and it was like, 'Oh, my god!' He was emotional and angry and it was incredibly powerful. Then, they called, 'Cut!,' and the whole set started applauding and some people were crying.

"I remember sitting there and going, 'That was amazing! I suck and I’ll never be able to do that.' I was thinking, 'I’m in the ring with Hopkins, I’m doing all right, I’m holding my own,' until that moment."

Thor is released 20th May 2011.
