Chris Hemsworth is clearly the spitting image of his father, Craig, as we get a glimpse into their heartfelt journey in "A Road Trip to Remember." Just this past Friday, the charismatic actor known for his role as Thor took to Instagram to unveil the trailer for his moving new documentary. The striking similarity between Chris and his father has left fans in awe. They embarked on a poignant road trip across Australia, revisiting cherished memories as Chris supports Craig, who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.
In his heartfelt words from the trailer, Chris shares, "My dad and I are going on a road trip, going back into our past. He has early-stage Alzheimer’s, and I want to do everything I can to assist him. It turns out that this experience could actually aid in combating the disease." During this emotional journey, he also shared some treasured photographs, igniting reactions from fans who were astonished by the resemblance between the two. One fan commented, "Wow, your dad looks just like a younger version of you; I thought that was you!", echoing the sentiments of many others.

The trailer evoked strong emotions within many of Chris's followers, with several moments proving to be particularly sentimental—like when they return to their old family home nestled in the Northern Territory of Australia.
In an emotional caption accompanying his post, Chris reflected, "My dad and I have always discussed the idea of taking a trip back to the Northern Territory, where our family had lived many years ago. However, life often got in the way, making it hard to find the time to make it happen. More recently, the notion of this road trip became more pressing and essential. Ultimately, the journey turned out to be more profound, more moving, and far more surprising than I ever imagined."
