Chris Hemsworth & John Smith

Chris Hemsworth is, by anybody's measure, a very handsome man. When Hollywood directors go looking for a dashing guy to play the lead role in their latest movie project, Hemsworth's name must be very close to the top of the list. He was a soap star in his native Australia before moviemakers picked up on his obvious talents and good looks, and picked him up to be the star of blockbuster hits like 'Thor,' which led on to the entire record-breaking 'Avengers' series.

If you're a Disney fan, you might have spent the past few years thinking you've seen Hemsworth somewhere before, but can't quite place him. Allow us to make the connection for you. When Hemsworth grows his hair out a little, he's a dead ringer for Captain John Smith. You'll know the character from the classic animated version of 'Pocahontas.' Same sharp blue eyes, same well-maintained hairstyle, and the same distinctive jawline. Smith may be British rather than Australian - but we're sure Hemsworth could do a British accent if he needed to.
