Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is considered the God of bodybuilding had an unexpected encounter with Chris Hemsworth at a gym in Brazil. The Thor and Terminator actors met before their red-carpet appearances at Netflix’s 2023 Tudum event on Saturday that happened in Brazil. “I don’t know what it was like for them to run into us,” Hemsworth said adding that the run-in with the Terminator actor was unreal. “But it was kind of a dream come true,” he added.

Hemsworth said that the duo has appeared in a promotional video for Netflix together but they were never able to meet on set as they filmed the entire video on green screens at different places. So, the recent meet-up in Brazil was special for the Thor actor. “We were on green screens in separate countries,” Hemsworth told PEOPLE. “So to work out with him, meet him…”

Hemsworth further added that the legendary actor, Schwarzenegger was “as gracious and kind as I’d hoped.”  “It was a pretty special moment,” he added.
