Chris Hemsworth shows off buff bod in new Vacation trailer

The reigning People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive plays the outrageously flirty and overtly sexual character in the movie, who hits on his wife Audrey's sister-in-law Debbie Griswold across a number of scenes.

Stone shows off his buff body in boxer briefs, which also highlights his 'big asset', in one of the now iconic scenes from the film.

His behaviour sparks a rivalry between Stone and Rusty Griswald, which Chris says makes for some good sparring on-screen.

Chris Hemsworth opens up about his hilarious role in Vacation

'He [Stone] tolerates Rusty but underneath he doesn't have a lot of respect for him, so there's some nice tension and digs the two of them give each other,' he said.

In a behind-the-scenes look at the reboot of the National Lampoons franchise, the former Home And Away actor said the project, from the writers of Horrible Bosses, was a "no-brainer" for him.

'I love the original films they were hilarious,' he confessed.

'And reading the script, it didn't feel dated, it didn't feel like a re-creation, it felt like something entirely new but I just think it was a great opportunity to do something different,' he added.

The handsome hunk confessed he couldn't help but laugh when he walked into the room to film the much talked about underwear scene with a prosthetic penis in his underwear, calling it 'embarrassing' but still 'hilarious'.

The Avengers star has taken on the funnyman role after a string of dramas on the big screen, with his comedic timing impressing all of his co-stars - especially Christina Applegate who plays Debbie and Ed Helms to stars as Rusty Griswold.

'Chris Hemsworth is amazing,' Christina gushed in the featurette, adding: 'You know, we're so used to seeing him serious but he's so funny in this!'

While, Hangover star Ed told Access Hollywood recently the key to the bedroom scene wasn't Chris's obvious bulge but his comedic timing.

'That scene with the underwear sight gag, I think people look at that and kind of quickly assume, "Oh it's funny because of the underwear sight gag." But it's not, that's not why it's funny. It's funny because of Chris' performance,' Ed explained.

'I could barely make it through filming [the underwear scene],' he admitted, before adding of the Thor star: 'I hope we see him do a lot more comedy.'

Vacation opens in cinemas around Australia, August 20.
