Hemsworth, 36, posted to Instagram how firefighters were “really still in the thick of it”.

And, they faced “plenty of challenging times ahead”.

He added: “Like you, I want to support the fight against the bushfires here in Australia.

“My family and I are contributing a million dollars.

“Hopefully you guys can chip in too.

“Every penny counts so whatever you can muster up is greatly appreciated.

“In my bio I’ve added links to support the fire fighters, organisations and charities who are working flat out to provide support and relief during this devastating and challenging time.
