14 Times Hiddleston & Hemsworth Were Best Friends

by Martha Sorren

On Saturday, Chris Hemsworth hosted Saturday Night Live — and, more importantly, he also joined the Twitter-sphere. There was no one more excited about these accomplishments than his onscreen brother. Tom Hiddleston sent Chris Hemsworth a flattering message on Twitter, and reminded fans that, while they play bitter enemies on screen, the two actors actually always have each other's backs. Ever since the pair met in 2009 to film Thor, Hemsworth and Hiddleston have been best buddies. "We came into this, at the same point in our careers, with the same enthusiasm and love for these types of films, and just had a great time doing it," Hemsworth told Collider at the time. "You either have chemistry with someone or you don’t and, thankfully, it was there."

Hiddleston wholeheartedly agreed. "It’s quite literally a bromance," he told Collider of his co-star. "The fact that we get along, we just egg each other on. We raised each other’s game. We just had a really, really good time." From that point on, and through all the other Marvel films, they've remained close friends. But even more than that, Hemsworth and Hiddleston are each other's biggest champions. Here are 14 times they supported each other through thick and thin.
