Oscar-nominated filmmaker Darren Aronofsky is getting plenty of attention these days for his new film The Whale, but he has another high-profile project that’s also generating buzz for very different reasons: National Geographic’s Limitless with Chris Hemsworth.
The six-part series on Disney+ features Marvel Cinematic Universe actor Hemsworth exploring various techniques to combat aging and extend the human lifespan, and learning about the effects of these techniques firsthand. Aronofsky serves as an executive producer on the series, which has Hemsworth experimenting with various activities reported to have an effect on how — and how long — we live, including meditation, fasting, and exposure to extreme conditions.
