Chris Hemsworth thrilled nearly 70,000 fans at Ed Sheeran‘s concert in Bucharest, Romania, on Saturday night. He surprised the crowd by joining Sheeran on stage to play the drums during the song “Thinking Out Loud.”
This marked Hemsworth’s first public performance on the drums, which was captured for an upcoming episode of his National Geographic series, Limitless With Chris Hemsworth, set to premiere in 2025.
Sheeran quickly shared the news on Instagram after the show, revealing that Hemsworth had reached out via email about his documentary on cognitive health and the benefits of learning an instrument. “He came to visit me, and he’s learned drums,” Sheeran explained in the clip. Hemsworth, with his trademark humor, mimicked playing the drums and expressed his excitement about the performance.
Limitless follows Hemsworth as he takes on physical and mental challenges to improve his well-being. The series explores the secrets to living a longer, healthier life, guided by experts and mentors from around the world. The second season features executive producers Tom Watt-Smith, Jane Root, and others, including Hemsworth himself.
