Taika Waititi on Thor: Love And Thunder – “This is the craziest film I’ve ever done” : Bollywood News

Thor: Love and Thunder director Taikia Waititi says the upcoming Marvel film "shouldn’t make sense.” Waititi last directed 2017’s Thor: Ragnarok, the God of Thunder’s third outing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He is best known for his irreverent and sometimes dark comedies like Jojo Rabbit and What We Do In The Shadows, brought his unique style of humor to the project, and delivered one of the most bombastic and vibrant films in the entire MCU.

Thor: Love and Thunder will see Chris Hemsworth return as Thor, alongside Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie as well as the Guardians of the Galaxy, but how involved they will be is still unknown. The most interesting return is Natalie Portman who will reprise the role of Jane Foster, her role from 2011’s Thor and 2013’s Thor: The Dark World. Portman left the series after Thor: The Dark World. Something has changed, however, with Portman set to return and wield Thor’s hammer Mjolnir as Mighty Thor. Joining the film is series newcomer Christian Bale, who will play Gorr the God Butcher.

Speaking in an interview with Empire, Waititi expressed how utterly bewildering it is to him that he got to make the film. He said, “I’ve done some crazy sh*t in my life … But [this is] the craziest film I’ve ever done … If you wrote down all the elements of this film, it shouldn’t make sense. It’s almost like it shouldn’t be made. If you walked into a room and said, ‘I want this and this and this.’ Who’s in it? These people. What are you going to call it? Love And Thunder. I mean, you’d never work again. Maybe I won’t after this.”

After his statement, it seems like Jane Foster’s transformation into Mighty Thor, which promises to be an exciting new direction for the character. Just how much sense Thor: Love and Thunder will make is still yet to be seen, but hopefully, fans can expect some answers ahead of the film’s release in 2022.
