Kenneth Branagh sat down with
Vulture to talk about his upcoming film
My Week With Marilyn. In the interview Branagh was once again asked about Patty Jenkins taking his place as director for the upcoming sequel to his smash Summer hit,
Thor, saying that he hasn't spoken to her but they have exchanged letter on good sentiments. He also, unlike Mickey Rourke, talked about what a joyful collaboration it was to work with the people at Marvel.
Said Branagh: "We haven't spoken, we've exchanged letters, really just saying "well done" and "how thrilling." I think it’s a great choice and I'm really excited about that, and I think Marvel have always been so imaginative about the way they match these projects with directors who may have very particular things to bring to them but may not be superficially a natural kind of fit. But my gut tells me this is a tremendous choice, so I'm very excited. I'm also thrilled that the second movie is being made, and I just think her in combination with those actors is such a terrific thing. And I think she'll get on in the way that I did with the Marvel guys, which was a very happy, creative collaboration."
Chris Hemsworth is set to return as Thor The God Of Thunder, with Natalie Portman and Tom Hiddleston returning as well as Jane Foster and Loki respectively.
Thor 2 will hit theaters on November November 15, 2013.
