To find the correct intensive pronoun that completes the sentence, we need to identify the subject of the sentence. In this case, the subject is "The actors." An intensive pronoun emphasizes and reflects back to the subject.
Looking at the options provided:
- "yourselves" refers to the second person (you) and does not match the subject "The actors."
- "himself" refers to the third person singular (he) and does not match the subject "The actors."
- "themselves" refers to the third person plural (they), which matches the subject "The actors."
Therefore, the correct intensive pronoun that completes the sentence is "themselves."
