Liam Hemsworth has been keeping a low profile since news broke of his divorce from Miley Cyrus, and her subsequent relationship with Kaitlynn Carter.

The Hollywood actor definitely needed some time to himself, and flew back to his native Australia to spend quality time with his brother, Chris Hemsworth.

Sometimes we just need some sibling love, and Chris has brought a smile to Liam's face amid his heartbreaking break-up from his partner of 10 years Miley.

The brothers set off on a family holiday to Makepeace Island, just off Noosa in Queensland, Australia, to have some down-time and the pair looked more chilled out than ever.

Chris shared some photos of his time away with Liam and his wife Elsa Pataky on Thursday; "Another little hidden gem in Australia Thanks for the hospitality Makepeace Island!,’ Chris said.

The snapshots show Chris posed alongside Liam and his gang of seven.  Chris jokingly puts his foot on Liam’s head in one moment, so we reckon they're just like every other brotherly pair.

The Thor star has had a turbulent week, with family dog Sunny going missing earlier last week and getting zapped by electric fencing.

The Marvel star's Goldendoodle ran off in Byron Bay, and the actor's family friend Tracey Sparkes shared an appeal on Facebook explaining that Sunny was a ‘very friendly’ pooch who was ‘approaching her third night lost’, Page Six reported.

"She ran off after getting a zap from electric fencing," she wrote, before asking members of a local Byron Bay Facebook group to "please keep a look out for her".

Chris and his wife, who adopted Sunny in November 2014, were reunited with the dog later on, luckily.

Liam definitely needed a holiday after splitting from Miley Cyrus just eight months after their marriage in December of last year.

The Slide Away singer is already dating new girlfriend Kaitlynn Carter just days after confirming the end of her marriage.

Miley was seen kissing Kaitlynn on their trip to Italy and it’s now reported the pair are living together. People claim that the pair have taken the next step, and Miley has "no regrets" about her break-up.

According to The Blast, settlement discussions between the Miley and Liam have been ‘amicable’ since Liam filed for divorce and their pre-nup means dividing their assets is simple.

It's been a long time coming, but Marvel have finally unleashed the second phase of the MCU and it's diverse AS F*CK. We're in heaven.

One of the best snippets of superhero news we've heard from Comic Con (apart from Natalie Portman as female Thor, that slayed us) is the first openly LGBTQ+ hero arriving to the party.

Fan-fave character Valkyrie, played by the incredible Tessa Thompson, will have an LGBTQ+ storyline in the fourth Thor movie, due out November 2021.

The character is bisexual in the comics, and was portrayed by the actress in Thor: Ragnarok and Avengers: Endgame.

Thor: Love and Thunder will feature Chris Hemsworth as the titular character, Natalie Portman slaying as his female equal and now Tessa as Valkyrie. Wow.

Appearing at Marvel Studios' Comic-Con panel in Hall H over the weekend, Thompson announced to the audience:

"As new king, she needs to find her queen. So that will be the first order of business. She has some ideas. I'll keep you posted."

When asked whether Valkyrie will have an LGBTQ+ storyline, MCU boss Kevin Feige told io9: "The answer is yes.

"How that impacts the story remains to be seen with that level of representation you’ll see across our films, not in just Thor 4."

Feige added to Collider that Marvel fans will also be treated to an LGBTQ+ character in The Eternals as well: Long may it reign.

Marvel has come under fire for its lack of LGBTQ+ representation in recent years, with Feige promising work on developing this hole in the franchise: 

"We have both ones you've seen and ones you haven't seen," he said.

A deaf woman-of-colour, Lauren Ridloff, was also cast in The Eternals, alongside Richard Madden and Angelina Jolie.

The next Captain America (Falcon) is now a black man, a woman will play Thor, Mahershala Ali is starring in the Blade reboot and an Asian-Canadian newcomer Simu Liu snagged his role as Shang-Chi by literally annoying Marvel on Twitter.

Black Panther 2 is also in the works, and hilarious actress/comedian Awkwafina will join Simu Liu in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. 

Much diversity, many feels. Thank Goddess they came to their senses and decided to include people, now we need women and people of colour, as well as people with disabilities in the writing room and director's seats.

Many fans are pointing out that the billion-dollar company waited until it was convenient and profitable for them to bring diversity to the table, but we just have to be grateful they finally stepped up.

Avengers: Endgame has just become the best-selling movie of all time, beating out Avatar in the box office.

Chris Hemsworth has opened up about the mental health difficulties he faced after his career stalled following his appearance in Star Trek.

The actor is a massive Hollywood movie star currently, alongside fellow Chris's Pratt and Pine.

Hemsworth became a household name (along with his brother, Liam) after scoring the role of Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, playing the God of Thunder in nine blockbusters.

The news that Taika Waititi will return as the director of Thor 4 guarantees Chris' return to the role, and it's also confirmed that he will feature in Guardians of the Galaxy 3. 

In summary, he's got no shortage of gig offers. He even competed against himself when Avengers: Endgame and Men In Black: International were released in cinemas at the same time.

However, there was a time before he gripped hold of the hammer when the Australian actor was struggling for work. He had a small role in JJ Abrams' Star Trek, which began as a trilogy.

Hemsworth played Captain Kirk's father in the opening sequence, but things slowed down after playing George Kirk in the reboot.

He explained; "I got a job pretty quick when I got to Hollywood, so I was very fortunate in that sense. Then I didn’t work for a while and I started to think it might not work out."

Breaking into the acting scene is notoriously difficult and once you have any tiny portion of success, it's even harder to sustain it.

Despite having a role in a huge franchise, he had a hard time working after Star Trek failed. Hemsworth later suffered from deep anxiety during this process, as he emphasised to Heat.

"I had a huge amount of anxiety when I was auditioning, and that just got worse and worse the more I heard the word ‘no’," Chris said, of the disappointments.

"I did a lot of soul searching on a number of occasions, where I asked myself: ‘Why am I doing this? What’s my motivation to put myself through this?'"

If someone as great as Chris Hemsworth can have self-doubt, it can happen to anyone. He put spirited performances into his myriad MCU appearances, as well as his role in Bad Times at the El Royale.

It's official: Chris Hemsworth is putting the breaks on his Hollywood acting, and the world is in mourning.

We have to say, this news broke our hearts into a million tiny, miniscule shards of glass.

The 35-year-old Avengers: Endgame and Men in Black star made the revelation to The Daily Telegraph, telling the paper that he's turning down all projects for the rest of 2019.

Why? Family, of course. Damn it Chris, WE ARE YOUR FAMILY. Your work partners-in-crime, your loyal fans, your humble servants. How could you do this to us?

With that dramatic outburst over, let's carry on by expanding on his reasoning for spending more time with his young family:

"This year I probably won't shoot anything. I just want to be at home now with my kids," said the dad(dy), who shares three children with wife Elsa Pataky.

He has a seven-year-old daughter named India and five-year-old twin sons Tristan and Sasha, who live with him in Byron Bay, Australia

"They are at a very important age," he added. "They are still young and they are aware when I leave more than before."

Chris has been on our screens for pretty much the entirety of 2019, starring in blockbusters and reboots which have garnered huge revenue.

His turn as an overweight and alcohol-soaked, depressed Thor showed his comedic timing in the final Avengers movie. The chilled-out Aussie has always valued family and admitted his money makes him "feel gross".

GQ magazine interviewed the actor last year, who according to Forbes earned an incredible $64.5 million since the start of 2018. He explained his distaste with having too much money:

"I remember saving up for a surfboard when I was younger. The surfboard was 600 bucks and I saved up for a whole year with Dad's help," he recalled. "I didn't even want to surf on it for fear of damaging it. 

His new Byron Bay home is rumoured to be worth a staggering $20 million.

His wife told Australian Harper's Bazaar last month that Byron "is a different world":

"Here, there's a disconnect. It was a dream I'd have this kind of life. It has been our means of slowing down and made me learn how to be happy without all that. To stop worrying about trying to find another job. It makes you connect with your family. It's about teaching them to enjoy this instead."

We hope we'll still see one of our favourite actors on the screen in another while, once he gets his break from the craziness of Hollywood and stardom. We love a family man.

Many actors have been known to change their entire body for a movie role – we're looking at you, Renee Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey – but this has to be the most extreme transformation we've seen yet.

Chris is the main star in Ron Howard's upcoming film In the Heart of the Sea, based on a true story that inspired Herman Melville's classic, Moby Dick

The 32-year-old plays a sailor who gets shipwrecked for almost three months after a whale hits his ship… and as you can see Chris had to change his body for the role, a lot

On Saturday the actor shared a photo on Instagram of what he looked like when he was filming the movie.

 

Just tried a new diet/training program called "Lost At Sea". Wouldn't recommend it.. #IntheHeartoftheSea

The Hemsworth brothers have both just recently joined Instagram, and we're 100% more obsessed with them as a result.

Just yesterday Avengers star Chris shared a snap that made our hearts melt – and clarified that he knows EXACTLY how to win fans on social media.

The dad-of-three shared a snap of him running on a treadmill, while holding one of his twin sons over his shoulder, in a very Thor-esque pose.

 

A photo posted by Chris Hemsworth (@chrishemsworth) on

"The family who trains together, stays together," he wrote.

Cute babies AND fitness? Yup, that's a winning Instagram snap right there.

Chris and his wife, Spanish actress Elsa Pataky, have three children together. They welcomed their daughter India Rose back in 2012, followed by twins Sasha and Tristan last year.

While Chris still hits the gym regularly, we hope he's toned things down a notch since his Thor days, when he trained with a former Navy SEAL to get those arms of steel and ate mainly red meat, spinach and broccoli to fuel him.

And yet for his role in Star of The Sea last year, the actor had to restrict his eating to just 500 calories a day to drop huge amounts of weight – leaving him unrecognisably skinny.

"'I'm not even sure which is my real body anymore," the actor said in an interview back in July.

"I feel like I've lived like an athlete these last few years because I've constantly had to bulk up for Thor, then lose it all again for something like this."
