One of my favorite characters in the series MovieComic The MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) is Thor, the god of thunder, which is part of the Marvel comics. In the cinematic world, this character is played by actor Chris Hemsworth, who liked to wear his clothes in different ways. In fact, we’ve seen him with long hair, short hair, and a greased version. In the latest film dedicated to the god of thunder, Thor: Love and Thunder, we also saw the character played by Natalie Portman, Jane Foster, donning armor and wielding Thor’s famous hammer. The latter film was directed by Taika Waititi, who won the 2020 Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for a Film. jojo rabbitadaptation of part of the book Sky in a cage Kristin Lunens, who already filmed in 2017 Thor: Ragnarok, the third chapter dedicated to the god of thunder. Just Waititi talks about Thor’s future in the MCU in a book Thor: Love and Thunder Official Movie Special Titan, which will be released on September 19, 2023 in the United States, in which he will give his opinion on the hypothetical new adventure of the god of thunder, which may be presented on the screen in a yet to be announced Thor 5.
Thor 5? Director Taika Waititi already has ideas for what he’ll show viewers
There are a lot of rumors these days about a possible fifth installment of the Thor saga, but for now, only rumors remain as the film hasn’t been announced and due to a writers’ and actors’ strike in Hollywood, it’s very unlikely that Disney and Marvel will jump into planning. Thor 5 until the end of this situation. In fact, it was precisely because of the strikes that many film and television productions were interrupted, including Deadpool 3and hence starting a new one is somewhat impossible these days.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t fantasize. Especially after director Taika Waititi (via ScreenRant) talks about Thor’s future in the MCU in the book “Thor: Love and Thunder Official Movie Special“, where he seems to have clear ideas about the possible next chapter of Thor. The director, after the words of Chris Hemsworth, who considered the fourth film about Thor “too stupid”, defended his work to the end, and also spoke about the next villain he wants to bring to the big screen. Waititi’s idea was to always continue the evolution of Thor in a fun way, but still give him obstacles that the character must overcome due to the appearance of even more terrible villains in the films. At the same time, the director does not consider it possible to insert a villain who is weaker than Hela, but rather, even more formidable and clearly invincible.
Continuing, the director believes that Thor has unique characteristics such as bravado and lightness, so he is a suitable character when it comes to space adventures where you visit different worlds and meet aliens from other planets, which allows you to introduce scenarios, fun , colorful worlds and characters from unimaginable worlds. Otherwise, you wouldn’t get the same result with an ordinary earthling traveling in space.
Despite the director’s ideas, Disney CEO Bob Iger earlier this year, after the poor results received by the fourth Thor film and the third Ant-Man film, hinted (via CNBC) that individual Marvel superhero sequels may have begun to bore audiences despite his time with the company.
