Hemsworth, who plays Dementus in this action movie, walked the red carpet at the film's premiere with his wife Elsa Pataky and their children Sasha and Tristan on May 2nd. In an interview with PEOPLE magazine about the latest Mad Max installment, Hemsworth mentioned that due to the violence and explosions in the film, it's not suitable for kids. However, his own children were on set and got to see the filming process up close.
“I know it's not a kid's movie, but they've seen it all,” Hemsworth told the outlet, adding that the experience was much like a Halloween party for the kids. “They were laughing through the bits that they're supposed to be terrified in.”
For Anya Taylor Joy, who is the noted star from The Queen’s Gambit, the young ones are definitely a cool lot. Having interacted with them on set and whilst on the press tour, the actress can vouch for the kids to be action stars in the future. “They’re going to kill it,” said Joy. Hemsworth seems to agree, saying that the children are not necessarily worried when it comes to pulling off dangerous stunts.
