Thor: Love and Thunder star Chris Hemsworth revealed that he starts shooting the God of Thunder’s sequel in January.
After the recent news that Natalie Portman has arrived in Australia to prepare for production on Thor: Love and Thunder, Chris Hemsworth revealed he starts filming in January. The star was speaking to the Swisse Vitamins & Supply company when he provided the update about the upcoming sequel. Love and Thunder will seemingly adopt Jane Foster’s cancer storyline from Mighty Thor, as Natalie Portman mentioned it in a recent interview.
But when discussing his role in the next Thor film, Chris Hemsworth mentioned that he’s excited to push both the film and the character in new directions after audiences have come to expect wild, dramatic things from the God of Thunder after his last few appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He was also quick to praise the rest of the cast in the film as well as director Taika Waititi, who he says is currently writing the script. Take a look at what Chris Hemsworth had to say about Thor: Love and Thunder below.
“I was supposed to be shooting Thor right now but obviously everything got pushed back and I’ll be starting that in January. It’s the fourth time, the fourth Thor film and I think the eighth or ninth time I’ve been in a Marvel movie. So, very excited, excited to try and do something different. You know, the last three films we certainly pushed the envelope and created different versions of the character and now people expect massive dramatic changes so we’ve got our work cut out for us in that sense. But we’ve got Taika Waititi, the same director back, he’s writing the script currently. Natalie Portman’s going to be in the film, Tessa Thompson… So we’ve got a fantastic slew of actors in there, and crew and cast.”
