Hot on the heels of yesterday's big Matt Damon news, Chris Hemsworth has revealed that he'll actually start filming Thor: Love and Thunder later this week, meaning we could be getting an official announcement or maybe some early first look behind-the-scenes photos before Friday.

In addition to Hemsworth as the God of Thunder, the cast will also feature Academy Award-winner Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, Academy Award-winner Christian Bale as Gorr the God Butcher, Chris Pratt as Peter Quill/Star-Lord, Jaimie Alexander as Sif, Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer, Karen Gillan as Nebula, Pom Klementieff as Mantis, 8x Academy Award-nominee Bradley Cooper as Rocket Raccoon, Vin Diesel as Groot, Taika Waititi as Korg, and Academy Award-winner Matt Damon in an undisclosed role.

The Academy Award-winning Waititi will return to the director's chair, utilizing a screenplay he co-wrote with Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Someone Great; Sweet/Vicious). Plot details are currently under wraps. 

Thor: Love and Thunder hammers its way into theaters May 6, 2022.

Hope this one relies more of the Thor mythos. While Ragnarok was great, they kind of wasted the Ragnarok event, doesnt play that much in the plot until the very end and a good bulk of the movie was more like planet hulk. Like really couldnt they have done a movie about Thor taking on Surtur

Why do I feel like there's other characters in the story that they haven't cast yet?

Ragnarok is in my top 5 MCU films and I am excited to see what Taika and company bring to the table with Love and Thunder.

I wonder how soon before we start seeing costumes leaked. I'm looking forward to seeing how Jane Foster's Thor costume looks

With cameras set to start rolling, hopefully we get an idea of the aesthetic soon (especially Bale).

Hemsworth is freak level shredded here. They might be filming his shirtless scenes the first thing in the schedule.
