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.
