Channel Ten has teased that a major Australian star could be heading into the jungle ahead of the upcoming season of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! Australia.
The network shared a clip on Instagram on Thursday with an intriguing caption hinting that Thor star Chris Hemsworth or his brothers Liam or Luke could be making their reality TV debut.
“A Hemsworth in the jungle?” it read.
The clip showed presenters Julia Morris and Robert Irwin standing on a wooden bridge amid a tree-lined backdrop.
“I’m so sorry, Robert, I have to take this call,” Julia said before holding her phone to her ear.
The comedian then hinted that it was Aussie A-lister Chris on the line, begging to be included in the 2025 line-up.

“Hello love,” she began. ‘Listen. No honey, I don’t think I can have you this year.’
‘Are you still in Byron? Let me see what I can do, I just don’t see it happening, honey.”
Julia then ended the conversation and turned her attention to Robert.
“I mean, seriously, I can’t stop trying to get on this show,” she told Robert before her phone rang again.
“Liam,” she said as she answered the call, eliciting a nod of recognition from Robert.
Then he said to the camera, “Those Hemsworths. They don’t take any hints’ before Julia stepped in to put things right.
“This isn’t Liam Hemsworth, this is my masseur,” Julia jokingly replied.
The eldest Hemsworth brother Luke was not mentioned in the teaser clip, suggesting he may be entering the jungle.

The post was met with a lot of chatter from fans, with many suggesting that it would indeed be Luke who will appear in the 2025 season.
One fan said: ‘It will be great to have one of them on the show.’
Some celebrity sleuths thought outside the box and suggested it could be Chris’s wife, Elsa Pataky, the ‘chosen’ Hemsworth.
“Maybe it could be Elsa (Chris’ wife). She is as fit as a fiddle and would kill it,” one fan offered.
Another agreed, adding, “I think it’s Chris’s wife Elsa (she would be the mega-movie actress previously hinted at) and also ties in with the Chris/Thor/Hemsworth hints.”
“And since she’s also married to Chris, she’s technically a Hemsworth too.”
The Hemsworth tease comes after the first celebrity to venture into the jungle was revealed this week.
Matty “J” Johnson confirmed Wednesday morning that he will join the 2025 lineup.

The Bachelor star, 37, joked that his lifelong dream was to “survive” in a jungle by eating nothing but “zebra testicles,” before asking his followers to wish him luck.
Matty J, dubbed ‘the leading man going into the jungle’, was all smiles in promo photos he shared on social media.
‘Cat (or lion) is out of the bag!’ Matty J wrote in the caption.
The Channel 10 series will air on January 19, with Robert and Julia returning as presenters.
Comedian Kitty Flanagan, former Bachelorette Georgia Love, Married at First Sight bride Ella Ding and Big Brother star Reggie Bird are all rumored to be joining the show.
The speculation began when a now-deleted Instagram post teased that the cast would include “a radio star, a chart-topper and a stadium superstar.”
The post, which has been removed from the series’ official Instagram, also states that the cast includes a “comedy Genius, a pop culture icon, a silver screen star, a matinee idol, a leading lady, a sports hero and a Football Strongman’.
