The online flirting between Dwayne Johnson and Chris Hemsworth is not going to end any day soon. After Avengers: Infinity War actor ‘took a page from The Rock’s book’ it was only a matter of time when will he get a response from Rampage superstar.
The message exchange started when Hemsworth posted a gym video in the style of People’s Champ, in order to thank the Avengers fans for making Infinity War the highest grossing superhero film of all time. In the video he is walking around the gym, picking up weights while talking into the camera. He only showed workouts for the upper part of the body, and Johnson decided to address this.
In his video, Chris is saying: “Hey guys what’s up? Just taking a leaf out of The Rock’s book. Every time he posts he’s at the gym, so I’m just going to do a couple of curls while we’re chatting. Avengers opened at the weekend in China, and it was the second biggest opening of all time, it was the biggest superhero film opening ever.”

The God of Thunder continued the chat with: “The film continues to smash record left right and centre, and I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, it’s all down to you guys, all you legends who went out and saw the film. Thank you so much to everyone who continues to support those characters and the Marvel universe, you’re the best, and we can’t thank you enough.”
Well, Chris indeed wasn’t as naive to think that The Rock will let this slip by him. Former WWE wrestler allowed Hemsworth to have the upper hand for a few days before responding with: “First of all, of you’re truly going to take a page outta my book when shooting gym videos, then you’d be naked from the waist down. Never mind. TMI.A HUGE congrats to you brotha. You just made history! Very proud and happy for you and the team!! (sic).”

Of course, the two actors were just joking around, so, Hemsworth gave a funny but intriguing answer to Jumanji: Welcome to The Jungle actor: “Thank you mate, but who says I was wearing pants? You may have noticed I was strategically shooting from the waist up.”

The fans were thrilled with the exchange between two actors. Many wondered when will they do a project together, or is The Rock going to join Marvel universe. A joint film is a possibility, but Johnson won’t be joining Marvel as he is contracted by WB and DC Comics to play Black Adam. Franchise movies about superheroes are the ones generating most money these days, and we can only imagine how much Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam will make taking into account his star power and the ability to make any film, he takes on, success at the box office.
