He’s known for playing action heroes in flicks such as Thor, The Avengers and Blackhat.
But off-screen Chris Hemsworth, 31, is also a hero at home.
The Australian actor melted hearts as he showed off his loving nature during a recent day at the park with his wife Elsa Pataky, 38, daughter India Rose, two, and twin boys, Tristan and Sasha, one.

Come to daddy! The Thor actor showed he’s a hands on father as he bent down to lovingly encourage his boy to walk towards him
The father-of-three, who recently swapped Hollywood for a quieter life in New South Wales’ hippie enclave Byron Bay, was the epitome of a family man as he enjoyed a play date with his brood.
Kicking off his shoes, the strapping six-foot-three-inch heartthrob was dressed down in a pair of black shorts and a loose singlet that struggled to cover his broad frame and rippling biceps.
Lovingly encouraging his boys to take their first steps, the handsome actor smiled reassuringly as he reached down to gently take hold of the hand of one of his tiny babies as the little tot tried out a wobbly walk on unsteady legs.
The adorable little boy looked cute in miniature grey jogging bottoms and a T-shirt with his soft baby hair sticking up in little tufts like a halo.

Just like a local! The down-to-earth star is becoming a familiar face around hippy hideaway Byron, regularly spotted out surfing and enjoying the beach lifestyle
Adopting a wide-legged stance for maximum stability, the cute one-year-old, who celebrated his birthday last week, proudly managed a couple of steps before going it alone without his dad.
Next it was his brother’s turn, who dressed in a cute grey top emblazoned with the slogan Daddy’s Little Rascal on it and a pair of striped leggings gurgled happily as he took his first steps with the assistance of his doting dad.
Sharing his attention around his three children, the handsome father who won the PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive accolade last year, also made time for his adorable little girl India Rose, who is set turn three in May.

The blonde-haired cutie wore a pair of floral print shorts and a white sweatshirt as she played with her younger brothers and parents.
Hitting the playground, Chris and India enjoyed some father-daughter time as he pushed her on the swings, before indulging his inner child and enjoying a quick swing himself.
Grabbing the little girl by her ankles, her fun-loving dad, who is brother to fellow actors Liam and Luke, turned her upside down for a fun game of oopsie daisy.
In January the rugged hunk spoke of being a parent to E! News saying of fatherhood: ‘I just have so much fun doing it. It’s the best.’
He revealed that his kids have changed his world and perspective, for the better, with his career no longer his priority.
‘Now I’m a bit more choosy, I think, with when I work and how I work because it better be worthwhile to take me away from them.’
Meanwhile Spanish actress Elsa was equally doting with her adorable tribe and has been charting her adventures in motherhood on her Glamour blog.
Showing off her toned, bronzed legs in a pair of animal print shorts and a casual sweatshirt, the Fast & Furious star also went barefoot as she took it in turns to care for her little ones, later pushing them along in a Bugaboo Donkey buggy.
With her hair swept back into a messy bun, the bi-lingual beauty looked in great spirits as her husband showered her with affection.

What a team: Chris told Daily Mail Australia in October that he was keen for his children to experience an Australian upbringing
She revealed on her blog that her style has changed since moving to Byron, writing: ‘People don’t follow a specific style here – everyone wears clothes that they identify with.
‘As there is a tropical climate and a hippie lifestyle, you often see people walking barefoot on the street,’ also adding: ‘I was quite surprised at first, but now even I walk barefoot sometimes!’
The pair, who wed in 2010 in Indonesia’s Sumba after a whirlwind three month romance, looked as in love as ever with Chris playfully grabbing his wife in a headlock and throwing his arms lovingly around her slender frame.
In October the family man told Daily Mail Australia: ‘We’re spending more and more time back in Australia and I definitely want the kids to grow up here and spend time here.’
He then joked about his reported $7.2 million spend on a home: ‘But I can’t confirm I’ve bought a house here so ill side step that.
Adding: ‘We were in California a lot I missed it here and my wife missed it too so that was our goal to get back here.’
