After this, Cate Blanchett also jokingly revealed the "real" reason why the Thor shooting got cancelled in Australia. She said "You know how that Thor film that was shut down in Australia?

And, look at how easy I can lift it". In addition to being the owner of Mjolnir, Cate Blanchett also showed off some of the goodies she took home from The Lord of the Rings set as well.
