Fans couldn’t hide their excitement upon noticing the Thor wig. “Anyone notice the hair…? Thor’s hair….? he’s on set,” a fan pointed out. Another fan said, “that hair is fire.” A third fan said, “Thor’s son in training.” Hemsworth’s Extraction co-star Rudhraksh Jaiswal commented, “The new avenger!”
Thor: Love and Thunder has been in the making, in Australia, over the past few months. The Marvel movie will not only have Hemsworth and Natalie Portman reprise their roles as Thor and Jane but also introducer her as the new and the first female Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Set photos also revealed that the movie will feature members of the Guardians of the Galaxy.
During an interview with BBC in July 2020, Taika deemed the new Thor movie ‘insane’ and ‘romantic.’ He said, “I think it’s going to be really good. We’ve finished, we’ve been writing the script off and on for over a year and I’m just, actually this week, doing another pass on it. It is so insane and also very romantic. I’m into romances now. I just want to make a romance. I want to make something that I’ve never done or never cared for. I would like to attack something like that.”
Thor: Love & Thunder is scheduled to release on February 11, 2022.
