Astro even recalled that even child fans reported criticism of ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’; understand!
Was ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ “Too Silly”? Chris Hemsworth admitted in an interview with GQ (via Omelete), that the fourth film of the son of Odin ended up fleeing the tone of the previous films, and that despite having fun in the production, he had no idea what the public reaction would be:
I think we had so much fun making it, and it just got so silly,” he explained. “It’s always hard to be at the center of that hurricane and get some real perspective on the movie you’re making… I love the process, it’s always a mountain- Russian. But you never know how people are going to respond.”
In addition, the star revealed that the criticism was not limited to experts, since even the children’s audience had reservations about the plot. Recalling a dialogue with her son’s friends, Hemsworth he said:
A bunch of eight-year-olds criticizing my movie: ‘We thought this one had too much humor, the action was cool, but the effects weren’t so good.’ I laugh and grind my teeth in equal measure.”
Still, the actor who has wielded mjolnir since 2011, was willing to play the Norse God in the Marvel Cinematic Universe again if “a rich creative opportunity” arises for the character, since at the moment, he is “looking for different things to do” in his career as an actor.
Released in July 2022, the film features the returns of Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson It is Natalie Portman for the roles, respectively, of Thor, Valkyrie and Jane Foster, in addition to the debut of Christian Bale playing the villainous Gorr, the Butcher of the Gods.
The synopsis available on Disney+ reads: “’Thor: Love and Thunder’ presents the God of Thunder on a journey unlike anything he has ever faced: the quest for self-knowledge. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic assassin known as Gorr, the Butcher of the Gods, who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie, Korg, and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster who, to Thor’s surprise, inexplicably wields his magic hammer, Mjolnir, being the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark on a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the Butcher of the Gods’ vengeance and stop him before it’s too late.”
