Liam Hemsworth Biography

Liam Hemsworth is a popular Australian actor who truly made a name for himself after moving to America. Despite his brother Chris Hemsworth being significantly more popular than Liam, he never took advantage of his brother's fame for his own gain. The actor strived to achieve success in the film industry on his own. He actively pursues self-improvement and never misses an opportunity to showcase his talent in various projects. He managed to gain global fame thanks to his roles in all four parts of the hit movie "The Hunger Games".

Childhood and Family

Liam, the youngest of the three Hemsworth brothers, was born in Melbourne. His mother, Leonie, was an English teacher at a school, and his father, Craig, was a social service worker. His brother Luke was ten years older than Liam, and the middle son Chris was six and a half years older.

The Hemsworth brothers spent their childhood in a farm near the provincial town of Bulman. The actor confessed that his earliest vivid memories were of buffalo and crocodiles they watched in the Northern Territory. While their parents worked on the ranch, the boys invented their own entertainment.

There was no television in their house, so the brothers would go to the mountains, where they made weapons and played "war." The older brothers always gave Liam a head start so he could hide from the "bandits" or "Indians," and then they would chase him around the forest. That's when Liam's "love for adventures and fantastic stories" awoke, by his own admission.

Over time, the brothers' games became increasingly dangerous: Liam recalled that he once nearly killed Chris by throwing a sharp knife at him. Relatives called the younger Hemsworths "devilish children" and threatened to make them undergo an exorcism ceremony. To prevent dangerous situations from reoccurring, Craig and Leonie separated the troublemakers during holidays and sent them to different relatives.

The Hemsworth family moved frequently - from Melbourne to Bulman, then from Bulman to Melbourne, and when Liam was 8 years old, the parents settled on Phillip Island, where they bought a small house. Here, the youngest Hemsworth developed two passions - acting and surfing.

After school, Liam would go surfing with his father and brothers: "We were always busy surfing, and honestly, it's the best way to spend childhood. We caught waves before school and after school..." In school, the boy participated in the drama club and took part in all the plays, and at 12, he even went to his first audition, which, however, ended in failure for him.

The first to leave the parental home was Luke: he returned to Melbourne and soon everyone saw him in the popular Australian soap opera "Neighbours," where he landed the role of footballer Nathan Tyson. Chris also soon made an appearance there, playing robber Jamie Kane. "Neighbours" did not overlook the youngest Liam - he appeared on screens as surfer Josh Taylor.

This was the first time the brothers' career paths crossed, but certainly not the last. They often competed with each other both on set and in life: "We're competitors in everything, from backyard cricket and football to who controls the TV remote. From the outside, our relationship looks like a balance between love and hate." But when one of the brothers was invited to an audition, the whole family worried: "We always help each other with auditions, working together on the script," Liam shared.

First Roles

Liam Hemsworth started his professional acting career at the age of 16. At this point, he already had his own agent, whom he "borrowed" from Chris. The younger Hemsworth appeared in soap operas "Home and Away" and "McLeod's Daughters", then he took part in "Neighbours" - his character Josh Taylor was a participant in the sitcom for 25 episodes.

At the end of 2009, Chris and Liam Hemsworth set off to conquer Hollywood. Without money or connections, the Australians found temporary shelter in the home of their agent, William Ward. For Liam, endless auditions began. The first job in a big movie for the young actor was the film "Knowing" with Nicolas Cage and Rose Byrne.

In 2010, the young actor was chosen as a partner by Sylvester Stallone himself in the movie "The Expendables". This film was supposed to be the American calling card of the 19-year-old Hemsworth, but, ironically, all scenes with his participation were cut.

In 2011, after participating in the horror film "Triangle", Hemsworth starred in the melodrama "The Last Song". The actor got the role of Will Blakelee - the beloved of Veronica Miller, character of Miley Cyrus. This was Liam's star hour - he was nominated for the Teen Choice Awards and Young Hollywood Awards.

That same year, Kenneth Branagh invited Liam for the lead role in the movie "Thor", a new project from Marvel, but the producers preferred the more masculine and experienced Chris Hemsworth.

Career Blossom

Yet, Liam didn't become envious of his brother but continued to audition. Eventually, the producers of the "Hunger Games" franchise took a liking to his type, and Hemsworth was approved for the role of Gale Hawthorne, the childhood friend of Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence.

"The Hunger Games" brought Liam Hemsworth an MTV award in the "Best Breakthrough Performance" category. After this, a new stage began in his career. Firstly, he eventually became Stallone's partner in the sequel to "The Expendables" with the role of sniper Billy Timmons.

In the same year, he got the lead role in the melodrama "Love and Honor" alongside young Australian Teresa Palmer. Then came the action movie "Empire State," where Liam Hemsworth again featured as the leading actor. And in 2013, he starred alongside Hollywood greats Gary Oldman and Harrison Ford in the psychological thriller "Paranoia". He transformed into a typical office worker destined to become a pawn in the game of two media magnates.

In the same year, he returned to work on the sequel to "The Hunger Games," although the role, according to him, was just a small piece of the plot mosaic. However, the third part of the franchise, "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part I", breathed new life into his character: Gale's relationships with the characters of Josh Hutcherson and Jennifer Lawrence changed, revealing new facets of his character.

In 2014, the film "Cut Bank" was released: viewers once again witnessed the rapidly developing relationship between Hemsworth and Palmer's characters, but this time in the genre of a "thriller". However, the film went unnoticed, unlike the independent film "The Dressmaker" released in 2015, in which Liam's partner was none other than Kate Winslet.

In November 2015, the premiere of the final part of "The Hunger Games" took place. "It was hard to believe that it was all over. We were very sad, but we supported each other. Another interesting chapter of our lives came to an end," Liam Hemsworth recalled after the end of filming.

In 2018, Liam appeared in only one project - the short film "Dundee: The Son of a Legend Returns Home," which also starred his brother Chris, Luke Bracey, Russell Crowe, and Isla Fisher. However, the next year saw the planned release of the comedy "Isn't It Romantic?", where Priyanka Chopra and Rebel Wilson will become Liam's partners.

Personal Life

Liam's first girlfriend was Australian Laura Griffin, but their relationship didn't survive the long distance. They broke up shortly after Liam moved to Hollywood.

In June 2009, he started a serious relationship with his co-star from "The Last Song," Miley Cyrus. "When the filming started, I couldn't understand why Miley's trailer was always besieged by journalists with cameras, and when she left the dressing room, everyone went crazy. Then I thought she must be a special girl," Liam recalled about his first meeting with Miley.

The couple dated for several years, and in late May 2012, news broke of their engagement. But in 2013, after Cyrus's scandalous performance at the MTV Video Music Awards 2013 (Miley staged a striptease and simulated sex with musician Robin Thicke), the couple broke up.

Immediately after breaking up with the flamboyant Miley, the actor was seen with Eiza González, but their relationship lasted only a few weeks.

In February 2016, a new issue of the American magazine Life&Style appeared with the headline "Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth secretly married in Australia," but the actor later denied this information. However, their relationship had reached a new level; the artists even got matching tattoos with quotes from Teddy Roosevelt's speech. On Liam's hand was the beginning of the phrase "If he fails, at least fails while daring greatly", Miley immortalized the continuation on her forearm: "So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

However, it took more than two years for the ceremony to take place - Liam and Miley got married on December 27, 2018, almost 10 years after their first meeting.

The marriage lasted half a year. In the summer of 2019, Liam announced that he was filing for divorce. The former lovers cited different reasons: Liam accused Miley of infidelity, while she insisted that they divorced because of his alcohol addiction. Later, Hemsworth admitted that the divorce was extremely difficult for him.
I’m appreciating the little things. It’s something I always try to remind myself to do, especially in times that maybe things aren’t going the way I planned or the way I wanted things to go. Appreciating what I do have and searching for things that make me happy and things that make me a better person. This last six months, honestly, for keeping my head level and just staying balanced, I’d say exercise has been big for me.
A few months after the divorce, Liam started dating model Gabriella Brooks. They were together for almost three years, but in August 2022 they were suspected of breaking up. According to insiders, Liam was afraid to get involved in new serious relationships. However, in November they again appeared in public as a couple.

In early 2023, Liam once again realized that you can't just erase ten years of a relationship from your life. Exactly on his birthday, Miley Cyrus released the song Flowers, which she dedicated to their relationship. The music video for the song went viral, after which Hemsworth sued his ex-wife for defamation, believing that her song had caused irreparable damage to his career.

In the fall of 2022, it was announced that Liam Hemsworth will replace Henry Cavill in the fourth season of the series "The Witcher". Just like Cavill, Hemsworth is a huge fan of this universe and was incredibly excited to get the role of Geralt of Rivia. "Henry was amazing, and it's a great honor for me that he's handing over the reins for the next chapter," he stated when asked about his initial impression of the confirmation.
