Chris Hemsworth has tackled plenty of blockbusters throughout his career, including Star Trek, Thor, Men in Black: International, Ghostbusters, and more, but we haven’t seen the project he’s the most proud of. Chris Hemsworth told GQ that Furiosa, the upcoming Mad Max: Fury Road prequel, has been the best experience of his career.

“I came into that film exhausted. I thought, ‘How am I going to get through this?’” Chris Hemsworth said. “Week one of rehearsals with [Miller], all of a sudden it was this reigniting of my creative energy.” The actor said the production of Furiosa was “by far the best experience of my career, and something I feel the most proud of. It made me think, the work isn’t what’s exhausting it’s what kind of work it is, and how invested I am in it and if it is challenging in the right way.
