Chris Hemsworth is taking Netflix by storm, and not just because of his Netflix original movies. The actor rose to prominence in his home country when he starred as Kim Hyde in the Australian soap opera Home and Away from 2004 to 2007. However, Hemsworth gained worldwide recognition when he joined the cast of the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Thor in 2011. He played the titular character, of course, and would go on to appear as Thor in ten more movies in the MCU, four of them his own (Thor, Thor: The Dark World, Thor: Ragnarok, and Thor: Love and Thunder).

Although he has continued to play the God of Thunder in the MCU many years after Thor (with a rumored fifth movie in the works), Hemsworth has experienced success outside of Marvel. He has starred in several action films, dipped his toes into the horror genre via the critically acclaimed 2011 movie The Cabin in the Woods, and appeared in several other projects, some of which are available to stream on Netflix. As of the writing of this article, the popular streaming service’s library contains six films starring Hemsworth.

Blackhat
Release Date: January 16, 2015
Close
Chris Hemsworth’s earliest film on Netflix is Michael Mann’s Blackhat, which premiered in theaters in early 2015. Hemsworth stars as Nicholas Hathaway, a convicted hacker (in prison for hacking banks) who the government recruits to track down a dangerous criminal who uses cyberwarfare to enact their nefarious plans (a tale as old as time). Hathaway agrees, of course, but on his own terms. If he’s going to help the FBI, he wants them to help him. Other actors and actresses in the Blackhat cast include Viola Davis, Holt McCallany, Tang Wei, Ritchie Coster, and Yorick van Wageningen.
Blackhat is one of Hemsworth’s films that often slips under the radar, but fans can still check it out on Netflix.
Unfortunately, Blackhat was a box office bomb. It grossed only a little under $20 million against a budget of $70 million, making it quite a disappointment for Universal Pictures. Many attribute its failures to the fact that it was competing against the widely successful biographical war drama American Sniper. Blackhat did not fare too well with critics, either. The 2015 action thriller movie’s Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer score is 33 percent, while its Audience Score sits at 25 percent. Nevertheless, Blackhat is one of Hemsworth’s films that often slips under the radar, but fans can still check it out on Netflix.

In The Heart Of The Sea
Release Date: December 11, 2015
Another one of Chris Hemsworth’s movies that was released in 2015 and often goes unnoticed is In the Heart of the Sea, which Netflix added to its streaming catalog in late 2024, and it quickly started trending on the platform. The Ron Howard movie tells the true story of the sinking of the Essex, a whaling ship, in 1820 (which partly inspired Herman Melville’s classic 1851 novel, Moby Dick). Hemsworth plays Owen Chase, the Essex‘s first mate, in the 2015 historical adventure drama film. Other cast members include Benjamin Walker, Cillian Murphy, Tom Holland, Brendan Gleeson, and Ben Whishaw.

In real life, the Essex set out on its two-and-a-half-year whaling voyage in August 1819 from Nantucket. More than a year into their journey, an angered whale attacked the ship. The Essex was about 2,000 miles west of Ecuador on November 20, 1820, when the whale rammed repeatedly into the boat, resulting in its sinking. As for how many crewmates survived the attack and whether they overcame being stranded at sea, one will just have to watch Hemsworth’s Moby Dick origin story movie on Netflix.
Unfortunately, like Blackhat, In the Heart of the Sea was a box office bomb. It grossed only $94.3 million against a $100 million budget, but the historical adventure drama’s reviews are slightly better than Blackhat‘s. Similar to Hemsworth’s other 2015 film, many blamed In the Heart of the Sea‘s box office failure on its theatrical competition as it was surrounded by two big franchise releases — The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 and Star Wars: The Force Awakens (one of the highest-grossing sequel movies of all time).

Extraction
Release Date: April 24, 2020
Chris Hemsworth’s first Netflix original hit film is Extraction, an action thriller directed by Sam Hargrave and written by Joe Russo (of Marvel fame). It’s based on Ande Parks, Joe Russo, Anthony Russo, Fernando León González, and Eric Skillman’s 2014 graphic novel Ciudad and features Hemsworth as Tyler Rake, an Australian black-ops mercenary. In Extraction, Tyler’s mission is to rescue an Indian drug lord’s son, who was kidnapped by his dad’s rivals. However, the op becomes complicated for Tyler very quickly, and he realizes he does not know who he can trust.

Extraction was a huge success for Netflix. The 2020 action thriller became the streaming service’s most-watched film in just a couple of months after its premiere as it was watched by over 99 million households. Unfortunately, four years later, Extraction no longer holds this title. Red Notice, starring Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot, managed to top the Hemsworth project in November 2021. However, at the time of its release, Extraction was a big deal and certainly proved to Netflix how well the company’s original movies can perform. It was a no-brainer for Netflix to greenlight an Extraction sequel (more on that below).

Spiderhead
Release Date: June 17, 2022
Close
Chris Hemsworth continued his partnership with Netflix via Spiderhead, a 2022 science fiction psychological thriller directed by Joseph Kosinski and written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (known for penning Deadpool, Deadpool 2, and Deadpool & Wolverine). The movie follows a group of inmates in a high-end prison called Spiderhead who participate in experimental mind-altering drug trials to reduce their respective sentences. Spiderhead‘s cast includes Hemsworth as Steve Abnesti, Miles Teller as Jeff, and Jurnee Smollett as Lizzy. Hemsworth’s character runs the aforementioned drug trials in the penitentiary.

Hemsworth’s Spiderhead certainly didn’t perform as well as Extraction did on the streaming platform. However, the actor’s first Netflix original movie set the standard quite high, meaning most that follow will fail to live up to Extraction‘s success. Spiderhead is just another one of Hemsworth’s projects that slips under the radar but can be easily watched on Netflix.

Extraction 2
Release Date: June 16, 2023
Close
As mentioned above, Extraction was so successful that Netflix ordered a sequel (and another one that is currently in development). Chris Hemsworth reprises his role as Tyler Rake in the 2023 action thriller, while Sam Hargrave and Joe Russo return as director and writer, respectively. Golshifteh Farahani and Adam Bessa also reprise their roles as Nik Khan and Yaz Kahn from the first movie, and Olga Kurylenko and Idris Elba join the Extraction 2 cast. However, this time around, Tyler’s mission is to rescue a drug lord’s family from a prison in Georgia (the country, not the state).

The sequel followed in the first movie’s footsteps by also having a mighty impressive release. Extraction 2 quickly became one of Netflix’s most popular films, with almost 130 million views within its first couple of months on the streaming service. As a result, Netflix had no choice but to keep the ball rolling. Extraction 3 was officially in development as of June 2023, and Hemsworth and Hargrave are confirmed to return for the third movie. Its release date is unknown, though. Nevertheless, Netflix now identifies Extraction as a franchise, meaning that there will likely be plenty more sequels in the future.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
Release Date: May 24, 2024
Close
Chris Hemsworth’s most recent film to hit Netflix is Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. The fifth movie in the Mad Max franchise premiered in theaters in May 2024 and was sadly (and surprisingly) a box office bomb. It grossed $173.8 million against a $168 million budget. Many attempted to justify the post-apocalyptic action film’s poor theatrical performance, with some blaming the fact that it’s a prequel and didn’t have much appeal to audiences. However, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga received rave reviews, adding yet another critically acclaimed story to the Mad Max series.

Hemsworth stars as Dementus in the cast of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Dementus is the warlord leader of the Biker Horde who kidnapped Furiosa when she was younger and forced her to grow up as his surrogate daughter. Many praised Hemsworth’s performance as the villain, a role he doesn’t typically play. The Washington Post‘s Jada Yuan even wrote in her review of the film that she believed Hemsworth had “created one of the all-time-great screen villains.” Ultimately, although Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga flopped at the box office, perhaps it will have more success on Netflix.
