Robert Downey Jr. brought the jokes to Chris Hemsworth’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony.
The actor, 59, paid tribute to Hemsworth, 40, as the Thor actor received his star on Hollywood Boulevard Thursday, May 23. Downey brought with him a list of “roasts” from their other Marvel costars, each describing him in three words.
“First off, [Jeremy] Renner says ‘absurdly annoyingly amazing.’ [Mark] Ruffalo came in strong with ‘Friend from work.’ That’s a callback, now I get it,” Downey Jr. said in front of a crowd that also included Hemsworth’s Furiosa: A Mad Max Sagadirector George Miller, costar Anya Taylor-Joy and Hemsworth’s family.
