Thor: Love and Thunder is now just 10 days away from arriving in theaters, and Marvel Studios is kicking off the countdown with an action-packed new TV spot.
We see a lot of the Guardians of the Galaxy, while it appears we'll be spending at least some time with the Viking Thor who debuted in Avengers: Endgame. We know from the trailers that this movie will explore the God of Thunder's weight loss journey, but it's good to know the look will get some attention before Thor returns to his usual buff self.
During a recent interview with Cinema Blend, Chris Hemsworth and director Taika Waititi were asked about someone we won't see in the movie: Tom Hiddleston's Loki.
"He didn't want to be involved. He, he said 'I hate all of you, and, and in particular me,' and I was like, that's a shame," Hemsworth joked. "And that's it. I mean, how many times can we kill him? We love Tom. We love Tom. Yeah. But he's dead. Not him, but the character of Loki."
"No, no he's just dead to us," Waititi interjected before Hemsworth added, "He's obviously dead to us, as far as friendship goes." Once again, they're obviously just kidding around here, and the God of Mischief's story will continue when Loki returns to Disney+ sometime in 2023.
Check out this latest look at Thor: Love and Thunder in the player below:
The movie finds Thor (Chris Hemsworth) on a journey unlike anything he’s ever faced – a quest for inner peace. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who – to Thor’s surprise – inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor.
Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher’s vengeance and stop him before it’s too late.
Directed by Taika Waititi, the movie stars Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, Tessa Thompson, Russell Crowe, Jaimie Alexander, Chris Pratt, Karen Gillan, and Sean Gunn among others.
Thor: Love and Thunder is set to be released in theaters on July 8, 2022.
