Chris Hemsworth paid off his parents' home once he got his big break.
"That was the first thing I did," the "Thor: Ragnarok" star, who's one of three children, told GQ Australia in 2017. "As you get older, the roles reverse – they had us so young, they worked long hours, they gave up all their youth, to give us a great life."
Hemsworth also told Men's Health that he loved acting, but was motivated to be proactive about seeking out auditions because of his family's financial strains.
"I always wanted to act, and one of the first things I wanted to do when I got any money was pay my parents' house off," he said. "I'd asked Dad once when he thought he'd pay it off and he said, 'Honestly, probably never.' Most people are in that boat and I wanted to change that. So I was super active with auditions."
Hemsworth later told GQ Australia that he hit a rut after he was able to fulfill that promise to parents Leoni Hemsworth and Craig Hemsworth.
"I must admit that once I had paid off my parents' house and taken care of my family, I had a moment where I thought: what now? What's driving this?'" he said.
Younger brother Liam Hemsworth also recalled the moment Chris told their father that he cleared their debt.
"He [his father] called my brother Chris back and said: 'I don't know how to feel. Since I left home I have had debts and I thought I'd be paying them off until I died and have this weight hanging over me, and now to have them completely cleared,'" Liam recalled in a 2015 interview with The Independent.
He added: "They are so happy now and able to spend more time with us, I would love to be able to do something for my parents like that."
