While we are well past Father's Day here in the U.S., September 5 is Father's Day in Australia.

To commemorate the occasion, actor Chris Hemsworth—who played "Thor" in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) films—posted pictures of his loving dad, one of which floored fans over their uncanny resemblance to each other.


We will get to that later.

His father, Craig Hemsworth was a social services counsellor when he married his wife, Leonie. Together, they had three sons, Luke (born 1980), Chris (born 1983) and Liam (born 1990)—all of whom are actors.

You can tell the handsome gene runs well in the family.

"Happy Father's Day you big bloody champion!!" wrote Chris.

"Thanks for always being there. Love ya dad."

Luke Hemsworth also joined Chris in celebrating their father on social media.

He posted pictures with his dad and wrote in the caption:

"You'll always be my favorite superhero. Happy Father's Day Craigo!"


And when Liam Hemsworth posted a photo of his pop, it was a clear indication the Hemsworth brothers won't be losing their eye-candy appeal any time soon.

But what had Buzzfeed contributor Lauren Yapalater completely floored was how much Chris Hemsworth looked like a clone of his father when he was younger.

"Because it's as if Chris was copy + pasted and made into a human based on this picture," wrote Yapalater.

Here is the photo Chris Hemsworth posted of his family from many years ago.

Because social media users surely did.

The Rock commented "that Apple did not fall far from that tree."

Ralph Fiennes Got Absolutely Shredded For His Next Film Role—And Fans Are Impressed

You really have to hand it to method actors: when they commit to a role, it seems like there's nothing they won't do to become the character they're portraying on the screen or stage.

Ralph Fiennes, for example, is no stranger to method acting. Back when he worked on Schindler's List as Amon Goeth, Steven Spielberg commented on his commitment to the part, both studying historical documents and published diary entries and gaining weight for the part.

'Home Alone 2' Director Wishes He Could Cut Trump Cameo—But He Knows What Might Happen If He Did

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York director Chris Columbus says he wishes he could cut President Donald Trump's cameo from the film, though he acknowledges that to do so could force him out of the country.

In a recent interview with the San Francisco Chronicle, director Chris Columbus admitted that Trump’s cameo in Home Alone 2 has turned into something of a “curse"—one he now regrets. Columbus revealed he had considered cutting the scene entirely but ultimately left it in after test audiences responded well to the brief appearance.

Mike Johnson Just Tried To Blame Medicaid Cuts On Video Games—And It Didn't Go Over Well

House Speaker Mike Johnson was called out after he erroneously claimed that Medicaid cuts are happening due to "young men" who play video games "all day" instead of going to work.

Medicaid, the joint federal-state program that provides health coverage to low-income Americans, children, pregnant women, and people with disabilities, has long been in the GOP’s crosshairs. Critics within the party argue it discourages work, particularly among younger adults.

New Wax Figure Of Viola Davis Leaves Fans—And The Oscar Winner—Stunned By Its Accuracy

Usually when one of Madame Tussauds' new wax sculptures makes headlines, it's because the sculpture in question looks nothing like the person it's meant to depict, and instead some uncanny valley horror show.

But the new figure of Oscar winner Viola Davis is not one of those cases!
