Thor: Love and Thunder filming almost completed, This is revealed by Taika Waititi, who returns to direct for the MCU after the triumph of ‘Thor: Ragnarok‘. Taika Waititi set the bar high with Thor: Ragnarok. So much so that it did not only ensure his permanence in the MCU, but the New Zealand filmmaker’s schedule became one of the most congested in Hollywood thereafter. After winning the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay for Jojo Rabbit, Waititi appeared in The Mandalorian as an actor and director of one of its chapters, starred in the future Free Guy , served as a producer on the series What We Do in the Shadows, and shot Next Goal Wins. This latest film is in post-production, so the tireless filmmaker immediately got on with Thor: Love and Thunder.. And it seems that his filming is already nearing completion.

Rodriguez/Getty Images for Disney)This was revealed by Waititi in an interview with Daily Mail; this May 1, specifically, he said that “we have four weeks of filming left, and I can already see the light at the end of the tunnel.” Thor: Love and Thunder have been filming in Australia with the occasional use of the StageCraft, a patented technique for The Mandalorian that greatly facilitates the search for locations in times of coronavirus. After Love and Thunder, Waititi’s future as a director appears linked to a long-awaited new adaptation of Akira and a Star Wars film, but for now, he has to finish his film for Marvel and seems to be very satisfied with it.
In fact, the director points out that “it could be the best Marvel movie of all time. “ Beyond the possible exaggeration, the truth is that the synopsis of this new Thor adventure that Chris Hemsworth embodies is most striking: in addition to picking up the story where Avengers: Endgame left it (allowing the Guardians of the Galaxy to reappear at the full), Waititi’s film will narrate how Jane Foster, Thor’s former love that Natalie Portman played for the last time in The Dark World, becomes the new carrier of Mjolnir at the same time as she becomes ill with breast cancer.
Thor: Love and Thunder also star Tessa Thompson, Jaimie Alexander, and Jeff Goldblum from previous films in the franchise, and has cast Christian Bale as the villain and Russell Crowe in a cameo as, supposedly, the god Zeus. The film opens on May 6, 2022, and the approaching end of filming coincides with the news that Taika Waititi will play Blackbeard in the HBO Max series Our Flag Means Death.
