The film is inspired by the comics and it was a good time to do a sequel.  The Director wants his next film to be “very different from the first film” and “grounded in emotion”. He’s adding that, while there is a lot of humor in this film, “There are also moments of incredible drama.”  Chris Hemsworth said that he’s never worried about repeating his performance as Thor like other actors might. “Thor is such an arrogant character, but he has the heart of someone who faces down the most challenging situations with great courage.”  Tom Hiddleston says that he’s excited to see how Love and Thor will work together since they have had very little to do with each other thus far.

Who are the director’s favorite characters and why?

The favorite character of the Director is Thor. “He’s just a fun, big, juicy character to explore.” He also likes Valkyrie because “there’s something very strong and heroic about her that I find very engaging.” Jaimie Alexander revealed that she will be appearing in this film, though it is not known whether she will be playing her original role as Sif.

With the hanging story around Thor’s hammer, the writer wants to explore what it would do if it fell into the wrong hands. The writers added, “I’m not making a political statement about violence against women.” Then said that there are multiple ways to have an impactful story using a hammer like this. One could either have a hammer that represents oppression or one that represents liberation.
