He bulked up for the role of the superhero, but later had to slim down for his most recent role as Eric the Huntsman in upcoming film Snow White and the Huntsman.

Marvel Studios has a new poster for The Avengers out this morning, joining the seven-member superhero team in a bit of comic book chaos on the streets of New York.

Along with the full image, EW has exclusive interviews about what the Joss Whedon written-and-directed film does with this crew of iconic characters. Tomorrow, a new trailer for the film — out May 4 — will debut online.

CHRIS HEMSWORTH AS THOR

The point of last spring’s movie about this god-like being from the celestial realm of Asgard was that an arrogant but powerful man had to learn humility to become a true hero.

Thor doesn’t need to be told twice, says Chris Hemsworth. In The Avengers, he returns as someone with a greater sense of responsibility for the world – or worlds – he inhabits.

“There’s a maturity to the character because of the journey he went on, certainly. He was a petulant sort of kid at the beginning of Thor, and by the end of it hopefully you walk away thinking that he is matured and there was a grounded quality to him that wasn’t there before,” Hemsworth says.
