'Very little prep time needed to form that chemistry!': Chris Hemsworth talks shooting scenes with wife Elsa Pataky for Horse Soldiers
Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky had no difficulty finding 'chemistry' in their new movie Horse Soldiers.
The 33-year-old star and Spanish actress, 40, wed in 2010 and have embarked on their first ever movie project together playing a husband and wife who are separated by war.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight about working with his spouse for the first time, the Australian hunk said: 'It is great.'
The chemistry remains: Chris Hemsworth spoke to Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday on how 'fantastic' it felt to work with his wife Elsa Pataky in the upcoming film Horse Soldiers. Here they are in a still from the film that the actor posted on Instagram
'Very little prep time needed to form that chemistry. It's fantastic.'
The film was shot in New Mexico in the US and movie bosses specially requested Pataky join Hemsworth for the project.
He said it became like a 'working holiday' for them and their four-year-old daughter India and two-year-old twins Sasha and Tristan.
Chris explained: '(It's like a) working holiday.'
Tackling the drama: The Thor star appears in the film as a soldier sent to Afghanistan following the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Here he is in a scene from the movie in another Instagram post
'They said, "Look, we are big fans of your wife, and we would love it if she came and played your wife in this,"' Chris explained. 'And I said, "Great!"'
Horse Soldiers is based on Doug Stanton's non-fiction book of the same name and tells the story of a group of US Special Forces sent to Afghanistan to fight against the Taliban after the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York on September 11, 2001.
Horses were the troops' main mode of transportation and the Thor star was relieved he had ridden a horse in his previous movies and was given thorough weapons training.
Six years: Chris and Elsa have been married since December 2010. Here they are in Westwood, California in April 2016
Chris said: 'We did a little horse shooting in the first Thor. I also had the best horse, Carly.
'I would tell them it was my horsemanship and my skill, but it was not that.'
'It was a lot of weapons training, a lot of movement training. It was great, because you can't really fake this stuff.'
Handsome couple: The pair attended the 74th Annual Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills, California last month
