The Marvel Cinematic Universe has managed to catapult several actors to stardom, and Chris Hemsworth is one of its best poster boys. Previously best known for playing Kirkās dad in the opening minutes of Star Trekās 2009 reboot, the first ThorĀ movie from 2011 supercharged his career like a bolt of lightning, to the point where heās got a new action franchise in the form of Netflixās Extraction and the recent Disney+ series, Limitless.
Limitless recently premiered, and itās during the fourth episode that Hemsworth learned he has a āstrongā genetic predisposition to develop Alzheimerās disease as he gets older. Both of his parents have the APOE4 gene, which is said to lead to an increased risk of the memory-losing disease. As a result, heās announced a brief retirement from acting to spend time with his wife Elsa Pataky and their three kids.
