VIDEO: Check Out Chris Hemsworth's Funny SNL Sketch Spoofing AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
Possibly confirming Thor & Jane Foster's relationship status in Age of Ultron, Chris Hemsworth hosted Saturday Night Live and took part in a sketch that mocked his role in the upcoming Marvel sequel
Chris Hemsworth hosted this week's Saturday Night Live show for the first time, and the Aussie actor did not disappoint viewers hoping he would slip into his Marvel role as the God of Thunder and poke fun at his upcoming appearance in Avengers: Age of Ultron. During the sketch inspired by the hotly-anticipated sequel, Thor hilariously celebrates Ultron's defeat with his fellow Avengers.
At one point during the nearly four-minute sketch, the super amped Hemsworth gives a shoutout to Thor's evil half-brother, Loki (Tom Hiddleston), as well as his "ex" Jane Foster (Natalie Portman). The latter mention just might confirm previous rumors that Jane and Thor will have split up when Age of Ultron begins. Anyhow, check out the video (via ComicBook) below! What do you think?
