Chris Hemsworth begins season 2 of Limitless with a blunt confession: "Of all the stupid things I could have done, this feels like the stupidest." The very first words of the return of National Geographic's docuseries challenging the man behind Marvel's Thor set the tone for what follows: a journey that is both daunting and deeply human.
When Chris Hemsworth first set out on Limitless, he was cast as the fearless guinea pig, pushing his body and mind to extremes in search of science-backed longevity. But for the newly titled return of the series, Limitless: Live Better Now, the journey deepens. Hemsworth is no longer simply testing limits; he’s searching for meaning.
"The first season was all about pushing my physical and mental limits using science to explore how we might live longer, healthier lives," he recalls. "I was much more of a guinea pig, thrown into intense challenges without knowing what to expect. But coming out of that experience, I was left wondering not just how to live longer, but how to live better now."
That question, what it means to truly live better, anchors the new season. Across six countries and a dizzying mix of physical, emotional, and even spiritual trials, Hemsworth is joined by world-class thinkers and risk-takers who help frame the experience. Their insights weave science, psychology, and philosophy into a narrative that’s both cinematic and deeply human.
