The "Reacher" star lost out to Chris Hemsworth because he didn't take acting seriously, he said.
Advertisement"Reacher" star Alan Ritchson said he almost played Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but lost out to Chris Hemsworth because he didn't take acting seriously.
Over the next decade, Ritchson went to acting classes and collected roles in "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire," "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," "New Girl," and "Brooklyn Nine-Nine."
When Ritchson reprised the role for "Reacher" season two, it exceeded expectations and earned itself a 98% rating on the review site.
