It was superhero vs superhero as the two Avengers stars took each other on at Comic Con over the weekend!
Chris Hemsworth, 30 and his co-star Chris Evans, 33, were at Comic-Con in San Diego over the weekend to meet and greet fans of Marvel’s The Avengers and debut footage from the new film Avengers: Age of Ultron – the sequel to the 2012 film.
They’d just walked offstage when the cheeky Aussie star Hemsworth, decided to put his name-sake in a headlock for a bit of playful rough-housing. “He started it!” Hemsworth said. “He pushed me first! You saw it!”

Chris said that they also hadn’t seen the clip for the movie yet and said “we were as impressed as the fans were”.
Of the comic-con fans he said “This is the real fan base and this is the most genuine group …they love it for all the right reasons. And when you come to something like this, it’s always nice when they cheer that much and carry on.”
