Last month,
set photos surfaced of Chris Hemsworth filming on location for
Thor: Ragnarok. It appeared that the Odinson was searching for the home of Stephen Strange as he was holding a business card with the Sanctum Sanctorum's address on it.
In a new interview with DigitalSpy, director Taika Waititi says fans might be jumping to conclusions. "
Ohhh I don't know. I am not sure if... I don't know actually. I can't comment on it. It may have just been something for the fans." He went on to insinuate that he may have been playing a prank, knowing that paparazzi and rabid fans would be looking to take spoilery snaps. "
Might be something like that," said the
Hunt for the Wilderpeople director in response to the scene being a possible end credits stinger. "
Might be a little tease. Or maybe a tease just for people who wanted to zoom into that photo."
Do you believe that's the case or is this his attempt at damage control? We'll find out for sure when the film is released in North American theaters on November 3, 2017.
ABOUT THOR
Thor Odinson is a Marvel Comics superhero created by Stan Lee, Larry Leiber and Jack Kirby. He debuted in 1962 in Journey Into Mystery #83. A little known fact is that a different (and more traditional) version of the mythological figure appeared in Marvel Comics in 1951's Venus #12. The new version was specifically created to be a hero who was stronger than the Hulk according to Lee.
THOR: RAGNAROK DEVELOPMENT: Chris Hemworth, Tom Hiddleston, Idris Elba and Anthony Hopkins all return to the franchise to reprise their respective roles as Thor, Loki, Heimdall and Odin. Newcomers include Cate Blanchett as Hela, Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, Jeff Goldblum as Grandmaster and Karl Urban as Skurge. Mark Ruffalo will also appear as the Hulk. Principal photography began on July 4 in Australia. Stephany Folsom penned the script. The film was originally slated to be released on July 28, 2017 before being pushed back to November 3, 2017. Kevin Feige previously stated that 80-90 percent of the film takes place far away from Earth.
