Chris Hemsworth’s kids are following in his footsteps in the cutest way

The next generation of The Avengers? 

Chris Hemsworth is ready to pass on the superhero torch to his kids. The actor and his wife Elsa Pataky are parents to 3-year-old twin boys, Sasha and Tristan, as well as 5-year-old India Rose. But it looks like his kids are already ready to follow in his superhero-sized footsteps - and it's too cute. The Thor: Ragnarok star shared a behind the scenes photo of him and one of his three kids on the set of his just-released Marvel film. The Aussie actor is dressed up in full Thor costume, while his little one wears a stars-and-stripes cape. He captioned the sweet picture:

“The passing of the torch."

“They were like, ‘This is so boring. We thought you fought monsters for a living and you don’t."

The actor is currently shooting Avengers: Infinity War with his other superhero pals. He told Entertainment Weekly:

“We’re shooting [the next] Avengers [movie] at the moment, and we did a scene the other day with Robert Downey Jr., Jeremy Renner, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo — and all of us were sitting there, going, ‘Who knows if we’re ever going to get a chance to do this again, and what a ride it’s been.' “Hopefully that’s a friendship that will carry for a long, long time. I’m very lucky.”
