Marvel Studios kept us waiting, but the first teaser trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder didn't disappoint. Despite being less than 90 seconds long, it was packed full of surprises and reveals, all of which we'll be taking a closer look at a little later today. In the meantime, though, both Chris Hemsworth and director Taika Waititi have shared their reactions to this first official look at the blockbuster.
While the filmmaker jokes that this is "the full-length finished movie," the God of Thunder himself promises "all the feels of a classic Thor adventure" and says, "You’ll laugh you’ll cry, then you’ll laugh so much you’ll cry some more!" Needless to say, we can't wait to see more from this one.
Another trailer is unlikely to be released before late May/early June, but we do have some very cool merchandise to keep us going. As you can also see below, Funko has released its full range of Pop figures, including a downright amazing "Movie Moment" with Thor riding his Goat Boat!
Look closely, and you'll notice that it's usually used for tours of the skies above New Asgard.
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. Sounds like an electrifying ride, eh?
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.
