Chris Hemsworth's children "don't care" about his global stardom.

The 42-year-old actor thinks daughter India, 13, and 11-year-old twin sons Sasha and Tristan - whom he has with his 49-year-old wife, model-and-actress Elsa Pataky - loved his films when they were younger, but have grown less interested.

Asked if his children are scoring him "cool points" for being a big film star, Chris told People: "They don't care. They don't care at all.

"I reckon when they first realized I was Thor, they thought it was really cool. And then they realized they couldn't fly, and they thought it was less cool.

"Now they're just like, 'Ah, Dad, whatever.' Teenagers."

The Crime 101 star and Elsa - who got married in his native Australia in December 2010, months after they were introduced by his talent agent, William Ward, earlier that year - welcomed India, Sasha and Tristan into the world in 2012 and 2014, respectively.

Following their births, Chris - who grew up with little money - taught them the value of hard work.

In July 2017, the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga cast member explained to People: "As a kid, we had very little money, and my parents saved up all year to just pay for a two-week camping vacation.

"Financially, we're in a different position, but I want to make sure they know these things don't come easy. You have to work for it, and you can't take it for granted.

"Success is more about the values we have and the type of people we are rather than the material objects that we might obtain."

In 2015, Chris admitted that he relishes the challenges of fatherhood and that being a dad has changed his outlook on life, as well as his illustrious movie career.

The Extraction actor explained to E! News: "I think it makes you less selfish, because it's no longer about you.

"It can't be. It's about someone else, which is refreshing. It's nice to not spend all your time thinking about your own problems and garbage up there, and I just have so much fun doing it. It's the best.

"And now I'm a bit more choosy, I think, with when I work and how I work because it better be worthwhile to take me away from them."
