Who wants to live forever? Chris Hemsworth may not want to live forever, but he definitely wants to live better. Limitless with Chris Hemsworth is a new docu-series by Darren Aronofsky and the team behind One Strange Rock and last year’s Welcome to Earth, as they follow Thor himself on a journey to combat aging and discover the full potential of the human body.

We got the chance to speak to executive producer Ruth Shurman about how the project came about, how Chris Hemsworth got involved, and what a series like this can do for viewers.

What if you could combat aging and discover the full potential of the human body? Global movie star Chris Hemsworth (Extraction, Thor, The Avengers) explores this revolutionary idea in the new National Geographic original series Limitless with Chris Hemsworth, created by Darren Aronofsky and hailing from his production company Protozoa and Jane Root’s Nutopia.

New scientific research is shattering conventional wisdom about the human body and offering fascinating insights into how we can all unlock our body’s superpowers to fight illness, perform better and even reverse the aging process. This science is put to the test by Hemsworth, who, despite being in peak superhero condition, is on a personal mission to learn how to extend our health, strength and intellect further into our later years. Undergoing a series of epic trials and extraordinary challenges in order to understand the limits of the human body, he’ll learn firsthand how we can live better for longer by discovering ways to regenerate damage, maximize strength, build resilience, supercharge memory and confront mortality.

Limitless with Chris Hemsworth premieres on Disney Plus and Disney Plus Hotstar on Wednesday, November 16.
