"Alan Taylor is directing, and he's one of the producers and directors of 'Game of Thrones.' I love that sort of mythical element, that there was an organic real world there, and I think Asgard and Thor's ethereal universe could be injected with that," Chris Hemsworth told
MTV Splash Page in a recent interview while promoting his next movie
Snow White and the Huntsman.
"It could be more sort of tangible. So more locations, less green screen. I think the Viking influence that that sort of world came from. It should feel [tangible]. It should exist more, instead of too shiny, clean, golden."
Despite the fact that filming begins in the next month or two, the actor reveals that he's yet to see the script (
"Marvel has a habit of, the day before we shoot, handing us the script and saying, 'Quick, learn your lines!'") but promises that we will see the God of Thunder back on Earth.
"You've always got to tie in Earth, I think. But Thor in the comic books, I found, that after the initial kind of establishing the character got more interesting because there were so many realms and things to explore."
Since Thanos popped up in the end credits of
Marvel's The Avengers, there has been a lot of speculation as to whether Thanos will face off against Thor in his upcoming solo sequel (a possibility made all the more likely by the fact that "The Other" told Loki there would be consequences should the invasion of Earth fail...which it did). However, the actor laughed that he would be
"too easy," adding that,
"We need a bigger fish." An intriguing comment, but don't be too surprised if we do see the Mad Titan play a role in
Thor 2! Sound off with your thoughts in the usual place.
