Chris Hemsworth has revealed that he thinks his acting career has suffered because of his children.
The actor has three young children with wife, Elsa Pataky, and thinks that some of his film roles have suffered due to his family commitments.
“I do wonder sometimes, if we hadn’t met, what my career would look like. Have I made decisions based on that? How has that influenced me?” he told GQ Australia.
“There’s times when I’ve thought, ‘Wow, because having kids is more important to me, some of my roles have suffered,'” the 35-year-old continued.
“There’s definitely a couple of films I could’ve put way more energy into but I was like, ‘No, I’d rather be with my kids,'” the father-of-three admitted.
Chris said that he hasn’t regretted his decisions to concentrate on his family more than his work and stated: “I often find myself saying it’s all for my family but in all this I definitely have personal things I need to achieve, too.”
Although the actor recognises that his children are growing up in a very wealthy family due to his and Elsa’s careers, the 35-year-old said that he doesn’t want his children to think that they are privileged.
Chris said that he “feels gross” about Tristan, Sasha and India growing up rich.
“Elsa and I talk a lot about how we instill that same appreciation and respect for things. I don’t want them to feel like they’re privileged in any way,” he said.
“The fact that we have money and their parents are famous, that somehow they’re special, that scares me because we grew up with no money,” the actor revealed.
