Imagine being a young kid and realizing your dad is a superhero on the big screen? Welcome to the life of India Rose Hemsworth.

Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky's adorable toddler has always known her famous father to be just that—her father. Meanwhile, the rest of the world sees Chris Hemsworth and instantly associates him with some of his well-known characters, like, oh we don't know...Thor!

But it looks like his daughter is finally grasping the concept that the same man who tucks her in at night is a hammer-wielding god in the Marvel world.

E! News caught up with the hunky Hollywood star during the Avengers: Age of Ultron premiere in London, and Hemsworth, who is also father to twin baby boys, explains that his 2-year-old is now asking her daddy to play the comic book character at home, too.

"My daughter is, I don't know exactly what the thinking behind it is, but she can pick me out of a lineup on a poster or something and say, 'Papa, papa!'" he tells us. So cute!

Aside from promoting his highly anticipated flick, which hits theaters May 1, Hemsworth has been busy shooting another popular sequel—The Huntsman.

He was spotted in all of his rugged glory while shooting scenes on set in the U.K. just a few days ago.  The film, which also stars Charlize Theron, Jessica Chastain and Emily Blunt, is a prequel to the 2012 box office hit Snow White and the Huntsman.

Plot details are vague beyond that the film reveals how the fates of two characters, the Huntsman Eric (Hemsworth) and Ravenna (Theron) intersected before they met Snow White.
