Pataky and Hemsworth met in 2010 through the Avengers star's agent, and wed three months after making their relationship official. The couple went on to welcome three children – daughter India Rose, 10, and the twin boys.

Two of the Hemsworth kids make cameos in the latest Thor movie, joining costars Christian BaleNatalie Portman, and director Taika Waititi's children. Chris's daughter "plays the character of Love" while ones of his sons portrays a young Thor.

"It's really cool. They really wanted to be in it," said Hemsworth last month.

The weekend after the blockbuster hit theaters, earning $143 million across the U.S. in its opening weekend, the proud dad called his costar daughter his "favorite superhero" in a loving tribute.

Hemsworth uploaded a throwback of India visiting him on the set of his Marvel film as a baby while he's in full costume – complete with his character's hammer, which is almost as big as she was at the time.

The second photo shows a more recent snap of the father-daughter duo on the set of Thor: Love and Thunder, in which the actor can be seen cradling his daughter in his arms during what appears to be a moment of downtime during filming.
