Movie Stars and Their Star-Studded Cars

Whether you're a method actor or an action movie star dodging explosions, actors need a car to get around when they're not behind the camera. But which cars do the best actors in Hollywood drive when they're not filming the next blockbuster movie? From Chris Hemsworth to Natalie Portman and everyone in between, here are the vehicles the A-list zip about in when they've got some time off as well as some iconic car moments in movies. 

What cars does the star of Thor, Chris Hemsworth, own?

Chris Hemsworth is best known for his role as Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), but he's also appeared in popular flicks like Men in Black, Extraction, Ghostbusters (not that one), Rush and Cabin in the Woods. He's also got a penchant for snazzy motors. Mr Hemsworth's car collection includes an Audi R8, Cadillac Escalade, Mercedes C63 AMG and a Mercedes V250d that he uses to transport his friends and family around.

What cars does the star of Thor, Natalie Portman, own?

Starring alongside Chris Hemsworth in Thor: Love and Thunder is Natalie Portman. One of the best actors in Hollywood, she's also featured in Black Swan, Leon, Star Wars, Closer, Jackie and Mars Attacks. Indeed, her acting career started at 12, and she hasn't looked back. As you can imagine, starring in so many movies comes with a pretty decent paycheque, some of which she's splashed out on cars. She's owned a Lexus RX, Toyota Prius at a time when every actor going had one, Ford Escape, Honda Civic and a Mercedes-Benz S-Class. It's a pretty humble set of cars for someone with a reported net worth of $90 million.
