Liam Hemsworth sat down with Willie Geist for Sunday Today and he told him he auditioned for Thor. I guess he did not have the right look because he did not get the role. It went some guy named Chris Hemsworth.
Another role he did not get at first was The Last Song. They originally cast another guy to play opposite Miley Cyrus, but it did not work out. Therefore, they brought him back and the rest is a Hollywood love story. One that has a very happy ending.
