Chris Hemsworth, Elsa Pataky Married: Actor's 'Vacation' Co-Star Opens Up On That Infamous 'Bulge' Scene [VIDEO]
As audiences await the arrival of the new comedy Vacation starring Ed Helms and Christina Applegate, there is one scene in particular that's already being talked about- the part when Chris Hemsworth exposes himself through his underwear.

The trailer for Vacation shows a moment when Hemsworth wears nothing but boxer briefs and strikes manly poses that show off his abs and broad chest. But the main thing that comes into plain sight is the actor's bulge, something that Helms dished on.
"There was a lot of conversation about what's funny [and] when does it go from funny to horrifying?" the actor said about the bulge in Mondays' report from Access Hollywood. "It wasn't part of those discussions. I happened to think they nailed it. Whatever it is, it's exactly what it should be!"

Helms then pointed out that there's going to be more to the scene than just what hangs inside Hemsworth's underwear.
"The scene with the underwear sight gag, I think people look at that and kind of quickly assume, 'Oh it's funny because of the underwear sight gag,'" the actor said. "But it's not, that's not why it's funny. It's funny because of Chris' performance."
Helms mentioned that it was difficult to get through the whole scene due to how hilarious Hemsworth was.
"I could barely make it through filming [the underwear scene]," he said. "I hope we see him do a lot more comedy."
Vacation will open in theaters on July 29.
