Liam Hemsworth is the Newest Bench Endorser

Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth is the newest international recruit of famous Pinoy clothing brand Bench.

Aside from A-list Hollywood stars like Joe Jonas, Michael Trevino Lucy Hale; and Korean superstars Dong Hae and Si Won of Super Junior, Liam can now be seen anywhere as his Bench posters and billboards rise in the Metro.

Liam (the youngest among three brothers in Hollywood, the others are Luke and Chris who plays Thor in Avengers) played Gale Hawthorne in the recent hit The Hunger Games. He started his career in his native Australia by playing the role of Josh Taylor in the soap opera Neighbours and as Marcus on the children’s television series The Elephant Princess. In 2010, he starred in the American film The Last Song with Miley Cyrus with whom he is engaged.

Born in Melbourne on Jan. 13, 1990, to Leonie, an English teacher, and Craig Hemsworth, a social-services counselor, Liam was quoted in interviews as saying that though there is competition for jobs with his brothers, “It is friendly; it pushes us and we are always happy whenever someone books something.”

When Liam was a kid, he and his family relocated to Phillip Island, a small island where he and his brothers spent much of their time. In March 2009, Liam moved to the US to pursue his career there.

Prior to becoming an actor, Liam laid floors for six months. He began to seriously consider following his elder brothers’ footsteps and become an actor in high school when he took on an agent. He attended his first audition at the age of 16 and began his career in 2007 with guest spots on the shows Home and Away and McLeod’s Daughters. In July 2007, Liam began filming episodes for Neighbours, an Australian soap opera his brother Luke had previously starred in. Liam’s character, Josh Taylor, was a recurring paraplegic character from 2007 to 2008.

In 2013, he will appear in Empire State with Emma Roberts, Paranoia co-starring Harrison Ford and Timeless as a widower who travels back in time. He will reprise his role as Gale Hawthorne in Catching Fire, the sequel to The Hunger Games set to be released in November 2013.

He is set to play Ali Baba in Arabian Nights co-starring Anthony Hopkins and Dwayne Johnson in 2014.
