The Thor star is also latest muse of Ron Howard, who played in the 2013 Formula One drama Rush, and now, playing first mate Owen Chase in the next ocean disaster movie in the heart of the sea.
Based on the true story that inspired Herman Melville's Moby Dick, second trailer for the film has above Hemsworth looking dreamy and determined as he fights a sperm whale plowing in his ship, the Essex. As he makes clear, he is not afraid of the deep sea-monster, that is so great that it comes on the boats as an earthquake rolls through the waves.
Cillian Murphy and Benjamin Walker co-star in the film, which looks at a rollicking adventure that will be a lot more fun if you do not already know how it ends (so, think Nathaniel Philbrick's 2000 book of the same not read name).
In the heart of the sea hits theaters on March 15, 2015.
