Neither of the actors has worked previously with Taika Waititi who will be directing the Thor: Love and Thunder. However, given the funny nature of previous Thor film, the duo could be a nice addition in the cast. Thor: Love and Thunder cast will see several familiar faces reprising their roles like Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie and Natalie Portman as Jane Foster and Chris Hemsworth in the titular role. Christian Bale has also been confirmed as the antagonist Gorr, the God Butcher, for the movie. The plot details are not known for now but the makers are eyeing a 2022 release.
