It has resonated deeply with viewers for its honest and personal approach to health and mortality.
Despite his success, Hemsworth has not been immune to feelings of imposter syndrome, a reflection of his humility and grounded nature. He has openly shared his experiences with self-doubt, even amidst the accolades and recognition he has received.
