Thor

Taika Waititi opened up about Thor: Love and Thunder and shared his excitement about welcoming Christian Bale into the cast as Gorr.

The director told AP News that Thor "is just trying to figure out his purpose, trying to figure out exactly who he is and why he’s a hero or whether he should be a hero." In a recent interview with AP News, Waititi discussed the premise of Thor: Love and Thunder and shared his excitement about having the Oscar winner portray the antagonist. "It’s a great, really fun, weird little group of heroes, a new team for Thor with Korg, Valkyrie, and The Mighty Thor," he said.

Marvel Studios' new film Thor: Love and Thunder is going to immerse audiences to a slew of new experiences for the God of Thunder (Chris Hemsworth) himself. In ...

To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who – to Thor’s surprise – inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher’s vengeance and stop him before it’s too late.” However, under the direction of Academy Award-winner Taika Waititi, Jane Foster is looking to have a comedic upgrade. Under the direction of both Kenneth Branagh and Alan Taylor, Natalie Portman’s role as Jane Foster in the first two Thor movies has been competent, but not all that memorable. And with the character of Jane, you want a little bit more. In particular, audiences will reunite with his former flame, Jane Foster ( Natalie Portman). This time however, she will be seen wielding Mjolnir as the Mighty Thor. You want her to be part of the adventure.

THOR is now one of the most pivotal members of the Avengers. But, back before the Asgardian's first movie was released, Chris Hemsworth lost his chance of ...

He said: "Definitively, the one thing I would definitely do differently if I had to do it over again, is we would not have dyed Chris Hemsworth’s eyebrows blonde in the first Thor. Because we were like, Thor is blonde! Director of Thor Kenneth Brannagh said of the new Loki actor: "Tom gave you an impression that he could be ready for anything, performance-wise. "Basically, at the time, they were looking for sort of less well-established actors so that the audience didn’t have an association," he explained. Yes, Tom, who fans now know and love as Loki, was on his way to becoming the God of Thunder. Chris Hemsworth, at the time, was struggling to find an acting agency to represent him and get him film auditions. But even when Chris was cast as the hero, Kevin Feige has one major regret about how he was portrayed.

The God of Thunder and the crew are back as Hot Toys debuts their newest set of Cosbaby Bobble Head figures from Thor: Love and Thunder.

"Thor Cosbaby turns the God of Thunder who dropped the hammer into a rock star and replaced the guitar with his Stormbreaker; Thor (Battling Version) presents him in the iconic battle outfits and Stormbreaker, surrounded by his thunder power, with luminous reflective effect applied. From Luminous Reflective effect and a enhanced design, this is the Mighty Thor fans will want to add to their Marvel collection. Up first is Ravanger Thor as he wields the power of heavy metal, rocking out on his Stormbreaker. We know the Guardians of the Galaxy are in this film, and it will be pretty exciting to see what Thor makes of himself while on the team.

New claims about Christian Bale's Gorr The God Butcher have called the Thor: Love and Thunder villain "freaky" and "very scary."

Whatever fans currently think of the supposed look of Christian Bale’s Gorr the God Butcher, director Taika Waititi has certainly not held back on hyping the movie or the character up, going so far as to call him the best villain Marvel has ever had. The first teaser for Thor: Love and Thunder finally arrived a few weeks ago, and while it gave fleeting looks at Russell Crowe’s Zeus, Natalie Portman as The Mighty Thor, and the return of Chris Hemsworth’s Thor and the Guardians of the Galaxy, there was no hint of Christian Bale’s new villain in the footage. However, those who claim to have seen footage of Bale’s Gorr have said that he is a truly terrifying addition to the MCU’s list of bad guys.

Jane Foster returns as the Mighty Thor in 'Thor: Love and Thunder,' but what made Taika Waititi pursue this storyline in the first place?

The first teaser trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder only briefly shows Jane Foster as the Mighty Thor, but fans are excited for this take on the character. For much of Marvel Comics — and the Marvel Cinematic Universe — Jane served as Thor’s (Chris Hemsworth) love interest. And that’s not the only reason enthusiasm has spiked. Thor: Love and Thunder will also bring Jane Foster back in spectacular fashion, having her take up the hammer as the Mighty Thor. That was writer and director Taika Waititi’s decision, but how did it come to be? Taika Waititi announced Natalie Portman’s return to the franchise at San Diego Comic-Con in 2019, revealing she’d play an iteration of her character inspired by Jason Aaron’s Thor comics. With Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in the books, Thor: Love and Thunder is the next feature film Marvel fans are looking forward to.
