Cate Blanchett used YouTube videos to perfect her 'Thor' role

Cate Blanchett says she found the inspiration for the look of her "Thor: Ragnarok" character from YouTube videos.

The 48-year-old actress, who plays Hela in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, says the make-up tutorials posted by fans helped her creating Hela, the Asgardian goddess of death, reported Entertainment Weekly.

"The fan base for these things, it's huge - it's kind of terrifying," the Oscar winner said. But she found inspiration from the devoted fans who have posted Hela make-up tutorials on YouTube. "So you kind of go to the fan base, and there's so much to draw on there," she said.
 

"Thor: Ragnarok" hits the theaters on November 3.
