The first few years in L.A. were really tough and scary, but I had to figure things out for myself. – Liam Hemsworth
I love watching my brothers raise their kids and not have to do it for myself and have the responsibility. – Liam Hemsworth
I love getting into physical shape for a film; it makes me feel more like what the character needs to be. – Liam Hemsworth
If we get to shoot the third one, which I’m really hoping we do, the third one’s great. There’s a big uprising and rebellion, and my character Gale’s a big part of that. If we get to shoot that, I’ll be very, very pleased. – Liam Hemsworth
There is a time and place for publicity, but to stay a sane person, you must have a personal life. – Liam Hemsworth
Personally, when I’m not working, I like to do as many things outside of the industry as I can – other things that make me happy. You kind of need to be grounded in something else besides just being an actor. – Liam Hemsworth
Ninety percent of my best friends back home are plumbers, electricians, builders, or landscapers. Most of our dads worked in trades. – Liam Hemsworth
I feel like anything I’m doing in life, I try to stay myself and be as honest and true as I can be, you know, and be a nice person. I’ve always been taught to be kind to people and have an open mind about life. – Liam Hemsworth
We love making movies. We got into the business to make movies. At the end of the day, whether you’re doing a low budget film or a big budget film, you want it to do well and you want people to see it. That’s the whole point. You want to put some kind of message in it. – Liam Hemsworth
I surfed competitively from age 13 to 18. Every day, before and after school. I wanted to surf for the rest of my life. It’s what all my friends did – I even had it as a subject in school for a number of years. – Liam Hemsworth
Gary Ross is amazing. He’s just – he always has a billion ideas of what he wants, but has a very clear perspective also; he just makes it work. He really does. He’s trying different things and making everything look amazing. – Liam Hemsworth
I think a lot of stuff like people’s emails getting hacked or that an email you sent is stored on a hard drive somewhere, that kind of stuff worries me a little bit. It’s a weird thought that someone else could get into my information that easily. That stuff’s pretty scary. – Liam Hemsworth
We shot in a place called Asheville, which is like beautiful, beautiful forests. And then part of it we shot all the reaping stuff, which was just crazy – because the reaping in the book and in the script is such an emotional thing for everyone. It really did feel like that when we were shooting it. – Liam Hemsworth
Harrison Ford comes on set, and he’s very polite and says, ‘Hello’ to everyone. He cares about everything that’s going on, on set. He cares about what’s going on with your character and what’s in the scene and what’s on the desk. – Liam Hemsworth
I think when I started acting, the whole time I was working towards one day coming to America. Hollywood, in particular, is seen to be the center of this industry, and I was just waiting for the right time to come. – Liam Hemsworth
I go down to Newport and Huntington a lot. It’s more crowded than where I grew up on Phillip Island, but I think it’s helped me adjust to life in America – getting into the water as much as I can. – Liam Hemsworth
For a few years, I went down a path where I forgot to be in the moment and enjoy the moment. – Liam Hemsworth
I grew up in a good family with good parents, and I was able to dream big and have the support to live it out. – Liam Hemsworth
