Taika Waititi Plays Adolf Hitler In His THOR: RAGNAROK Follow Up, JOJO RABBIT. See The First Stills Here.

Following his enormous success with his MCU debut Thor: Ragnarok, Taika Waititi has found new ground to break. With his next project, a World War II satire titled Jojo Rabbit, he aims to makes audiences laugh and cry, with the additional intent of “pissing off racists.”

Waititi has strung up a talented ensemble for his latest flick, with Scarlett Johansson playing the female lead in his forthcoming endeavor. The cast also includes Pitch Perfect's Rebel Wilson and Iron Man 2's Sam Rockwell. The titular character, Jojo, will be portrayed by newcomer Roman Griffin Davis.

Though it will be fun to see Korg interacting with Black Widow, many are still on the fence on whether Waititi can pull it off, let alone justify its existence. Knowing his creative and unique sensibilities showcased from his previous projects, there is no way Waititi can do any wrong. Gathering everything that has been released so far, this movie both sounds and looks like another home run.
