You may recall that earlier this year, it was revealed that actor Chris Hemsworth (‘Thor‘, etc.) challenged himself to learn how to play drums well enough to take to the stage with pop superstar Ed Sheeran. While Hemsworth is known for playing the God of Thunder in the Marvel cinematic universe, his skills behind the drum kit were admittedly lacking. Regardless, he took on the challenge as part of the filming for his National Geographic docuseries, ‘Limitless: Live Better Now‘, which aired this summer on Disney+.
In a bid to get ready for that live performance with Sheeran in front of some 70,000 people in Bucharest, Romania, Hemsworth enlisted Parkway Drive drummer Ben Gordon to help him get his chops up behind the kit. As Gordon stated last August, he and Chris had become friends roughly eight years ago.
This morning, Parkway Drive shared the below clip from the show of their own personal rehearsals with Hemsworth behind the kit.
