Chris HemsworthandEd Sheeranare trading tools!
The singer-songwriter joined the Marvel star on Instagram Sunday, gifting him a guitar in exchange for Thor’s hammer ‘Mjølnir’.
“Just an instrumental trade offbetween two blokes,” Hemsworth, 39, captioned playful video footage of the exchange. “Ed Sheeran I’ll make this guitar sing like no other and you swing that hammer with all your soul. Love you brother!”
In the video, Sheeran, 32, presents Hemsworth with one of his acoustics. “One of my stage guitars,” he says, taking it out of the case. “Wow,” Hemsworth says as he takes the guitar, then presents Sheeran with the hammer.
“This is my own weapon of choice,” the Marvel actor jokes.
In a 2022 interview withExtra, Hemsworth talked about where the iconic Mjølnir lives in his home. “It kind of varies in its location from the toy box to the mantlepiece,” he joked. “It quickly gets taken off there andends up in the bathroom.”

“Sport has always been an essential part of my life,” Hemsworth began the caption of his post, which includedan image of him surfingwith one of his 8-year-old sons. “I’ve played and watched so many types over the years. But the one that I’ve always loved the most is surfing.”
“Growing up, my dad would pack my brothers and me in the Kombi van to take the hour-and-a-half ride to the beach to surf. Surfing gave me an active lifestyle, but most importantly, it gave me the best memories with my family,” the father-of-three continued.
He added: “Surfing remains a mainstay in my life and has become a part of my identity, and I continue to make memories with my family in the ocean.”
