At the premiere of Transformers One in New York City, Hemsworth couldn’t stop singing Henry’s praises, calling him “one of the most handsome men in the world” and adding, “I love him.” His admiration for Henry is as genuine as it gets. The two actors star in the latest Transformers animated film, and their off-screen friendship is clearly strong.
Hemsworth, who held the title of Sexiest Man Alive back in 2014, seems to have passed on the torch with a playful spirit. When asked if he had any advice for the future honoree, his response was simple: “Congratulations!” Reflecting on his own experience from a decade ago, Hemsworth recalled the mix of humor and disbelief he felt after receiving the title.
“I think it bought me a couple of weeks of bragging rights at home,” he joked, remembering how he used to tease his wife, Spanish model Elsa Pataky, about his status. He quipped that he would use the title to dodge household chores, saying, “I’m above that. I’ve made it now.”
Despite the lightheartedness, Hemsworth's grounded nature shines through. Beyond his successful Hollywood career, he treasures his time at home in Australia with Elsa and their three children—daughter India and twin sons Sasha and Tristan. The actor often shares how much he values those moments with his family, recalling a joyful day at the beach during his 2014 PEOPLE cover story.
As for the upcoming Transformers One, it promises to be an action-packed journey into the origins of some of the most iconic characters in the franchise. Hemsworth voices Optimus Prime, while Brian Tyree Henry takes on the role of Megatron. Keegan-Michael Key also joins the cast as Bumblebee. The film will explore how these characters went from being close allies to bitter enemies, bringing fresh depth to the Transformers saga.
With Hemsworth’s heartfelt endorsement, all eyes will be on Brian Tyree Henry as we wait to see if he takes home the title of Sexiest Man Alive.
