ROMANTIC GUY: Chris Hemsworth heroically raises an umbrella to protect Elsa Pataky, his wife during their wet stroll across New York City in preparation for the Met Gala

Chris Hemsworth proved on Sunday in NYC that he is worthy of his superhero status.

On a wet afternoon, the 40-year-old actor and his wife Elsa Pataky were seen wandering through New York City. They are in town for Monday’s Met Gala.

As they strolled to Serafina Fabulous Pizza on the Upper East Side for lunch, the Thor star affectionately draped an arm around his wife’s shoulder and carried an umbrella.

With a charcoal jacket, tan button-down, and white T-shirt, the Marvel star was dapper and at ease.

Additionally, he sported a pair of white-soled sneakers and straight-cut black pants.

Hemsworth hid his dark blonde hair under a black billed cap.

He sported amber-colored shades and a well-groomed beard.

Wearing a belted black denim jacket and straight-leg black pants, 47-year-old Pataky exuded style.

She emerged wearing ankle boots with a black lacing system and silver rivets.

A little black Louis Vuitton crossover bag adorned with a golden chain was carried by the bilingual actress.

Putting her long, blonde hair in a high ponytail, the actress from The Fate of the Furious looked stunning.

A little pink lip and big, black-framed sunglasses completed her natural-looking makeup.

Despite being 14 hours apart in time, the couple seemed to be doing really well.
