“Thor 4”: Photos from the set suggest a funny star spectacle

All those who are looking forward to “Thor 4” (full title: “Thor 4: Love And Thunder”) can already look forward to a star-studded theater spectacle – in the truest sense of the word. As in the previous “Thor 3: Day of Decision”, the fourth part is supposed to be a kind of theater play in which nameless actors reenact the events of the plot from “Thor 2”. These seemingly unknown actors are actually Hollywood superstars like Matt Damon, Luke Hemsworth and Sam Neill, who then appeared as fake Loki, fake Thor and fake Odin.

Theater cast also in “Thor 4”

It was already speculated in advance that director Taika Waititi was planning such a meta-spectacle in the fourth part as well, in order to deal with the events of the third part. As the British newspaper “Daily Mail” now reports, set photos confirm these speculations. Damon, Neill and Hemsworth are said to be there again as theater versions of Loki, Odin and Thor. In the pictures, Hemsworth and Damon wear the same costumes as Original Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Original Loki (Tom Hiddleston) when they meet Doctor Strange.
