'Thor 2: The Dark World' Cast Celebrates National Slap A Co-Worker Day

It seems that almost every week we have a different national holiday making the rounds. However, tomorrow's Slap Your Co-Worker day might just be catching on. Even superstars are getting into the act. Recently, Thor 2: The Dark World's Natalie Portman got into the spirit, when she gave her co-star Chris Hemsworth a few high fives to the face. Now the actress is talking about how satisfying it was to hit a hero.

In a recently released clip from Thor 2, we see Jane Foster ( Natalie Portman) giving both brothers Thor and Loki the business, when she slaps each of them right smack in the face. Portman recently told E! Online just how good it felt to take it to the hero, saying:

"I found it very satisfying. I think it’s behalf of all my girlfriends who had guys that didn’t call them back or disappeared or just fell off the face of the earth."

However, Chris Hemsworth wasn't too torn up about the attack, adding:

"It actually become kinda hilarious because she had to do it over and over again as you do, and a couple times she sort of connect here or here or miss completely and we weren’t meant to laugh but it ended up being high school...When you’re not meant to laugh, you have to…It’s just ridiculous, over and over being slapped by the same person."

It might sound like Portman has a problem with her co-star, but in fact its just the opposite. In an interview with Marie Claire, the Harvard-educated actress doted over the hunky Aussie:

“Chris [ Hemsworth] is, like, one of the greatest people in Hollywood. He’s the kind of actor who’s so charismatic, he must be tired when he goes home.”

She went on to further praise her co-star in an interview with Details, saying:

"He's like a person you actually want to hang out with...a full human,There's no scoop, except he's rad. The scoop is he's just great at everything. When we were doing the first Thor, we would joke that we should remake The Way We Were. Little Jewish girl, a smoking-hot Gentile. If we work together again, that's clearly our project."

She also added:

"He's confident in a very quiet way. Not a look-at-me kind of way. He's like the silent guy at the table. He can sit there and listen and be generous and not have to be tap-dancing all the time-which is really unusual for an actor."

Thor: The Dark World opens on November 8 and Slap a Co-Worker day is October 23. We at Classicalite do not condone the striking of co-workers.
