Australian reality stars turned out in droves for the glitzy premiere of Thor: Love and Thunder on Monday night.

Marvel star Chris Hemsworth, 38, and his wife Elsa Pataky led red carpet arrivals at special screening in Sydney, while also posing with their rarely-seen twins Sasha and Tristan, 8.

It was certainly a family affair, with New Zealand director Taika Waititi walking the carpet with his children, Te Hinekahu and Matewa Kiritapu.

Some of the film’s biggest stars, including Natalie Portman, Matt Damon and Chris Pratt, were not in attendance at the Australian premiere.

Elsewhere, reality TV stars and local influencers also strutted their stuff at the film’s high-profile debut.

One-time reality stars including 2014 Big Brother housemate Aisha Jade, recent Bachelor runners-up Bella Varelis and Brittany Hockley, Survivor contestant Sarah Tilleke and Richard Wilkins’ son Christian Wilkins were mong those posing for photographers.

Bizarrely, former Married At First Sight star and notorious red carpet reject Nasser Sultan also appeared to be in attendance, as he uploaded a video on Instagram speaking to respected TV journalist, Jessica Rowe, from the venue.

However, it appears Sultan did not walk the red carpet and was not wearing a media accreditation pass.

Nasser uploaded a video of himself speaking to Jessica Rowe.
