A small Australian town's attempt to lure Chris Hemsworth has gone viral. Here's how the actor responded

A small Australian town's mission to convince actor Chris Hemsworth to visit has paid off. Here's how the actor responded to their creative campaign video.

(CNN) — In the past five years, the Australian town of Cowra has been hit by droughts, Covid and even a mouse plague.

So when it came to bringing tourists back to this sunny piece of New South Wales, Cowra Tourism manager Glenn Daley knew it was going to take something massive. Or maybe someone massive.

That's when he came up with the idea to reach out to actor Chris Hemsworth, who is Australia's national celebrity tourism ambassador and regularly shares snapshots of himself traveling around Oz on Instagram.
