Chris Hemsworth was absolutely unfazed as he broke the dress code at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.
The actor, best known for playing the hammer-wielding Thor, deviated from the strict black-tie dress code as he hit the Cannes red carpet for the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga premiere.
The 40-year-old star wore sleek black trousers combined with a white jacket and a stunning Chopard Alpine Eagle 41 Frozen watch, composed of ethical 18-karat white gold and embellished diamonds and sapphires. He completed his look with diamond cufflinks, also set in ethical 18-karat white gold.

The Australian heartthrob did not include a tie with his ensemble, thus breaking the Cannes dress code on a slight technicality.
“To attend the Gala screenings, a dinner jacket (tuxedo) with a bow tie or evening dress is required,” reads the dress code section on the festival’s website.
“In the absence of this, you may wear a cocktail dress, a dark trouser suit, a dressy top with black trousers, a black dress, a black or midnight blue suit with a bow tie… Elegant shoes, with or without heels, are required. Trainers are forbidden. We ask our attendees to avoid bringing backpacks, tote-bags or large bags."

The action hero’s date at the premiere was his wife, Elsa Pataky, who played two roles in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
"It's kinda like date night for us because we have three kids," Chris told E! News about filming a scene with his wife during the Cannes Film Festival. "Going to work together is when we get some alone time."
The Snow White and the Huntsman actor said filming with his wife also meant their kids were on set a lot.

"They were on set a lot," he told the outlet. "They've seen behind the curtain and understand the tricks. Nothing is pretty shocking to them."
The Marvel star and his wife weren’t the only ones from the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga cast who dazzled on the Cannes red carpet. Anya Taylor-Joy made her own statement as she stunned in a champagne-colored Dior ball gown complemented by Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
