Actress Natalie Portman, who plays Thor's mortal love interest Jane Foster in the superhero film, has revealed that actor Chris Hemsworth's wife Elsa Pataky filled in for her during a romantic scene.
Pataky, performed end credits scene in a wig when Portman couldn't make it back to Marvel Studios film in time for reshoots. In the scene, Foster gets a passionate kiss from the super hero at the end of the movie, reported New York Daily News.
"It was for reshoots (after the film was finished) and he was working in Hong Kong and I couldn't get there because I was working on my own film," Portman said.
"And so they put his wife in my wig and costume, that's why it was so passionate. It was such a perfect solution, wasn't it," she added.
