Liam Hemsworth told Men’s Journal in 2015 that despite his popular image, “I’m a complete jerk – I’m not a cool guy at all.” So when he explained that his episode of “The Muppets” might be his “favorite of all the work I’ve done,” it made sense.
In the episode, Gonzo uses Hemsworth’s photo on a dating profile, then asks the actor to sit on his date with potential love interest Debbie. Hemsworth accepts, thanks to the intervention of Rizzo and Pepe. However, the handsome comedian gets along with Debbie and leaves with her, eventually ending Gonzo’s date.
The actor said he loved filming the episode because “it was so funny watching puppets and talking seriously to them.” He clarified that the puppeteers act in character even when the takes are messed up, so interacting with the Muppets felt natural. “I seriously talk to them like they’re people. And the whole time, I was really trying not to laugh, because it was so hilarious.”
