got a mixed reception from fans. The MCU sequel extended the wacky and comedic tone of Thor: Ragnarok further. However, in a recent interview, actor Chris Hemsworth expressed some regret over this direction for the movie and talked about where he feels the project went wrong.
Following Thor’s character growth in Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame, Thor: Love and Thunder took the character’s journey in an unexpected direction.
In an interview with Vanity Fair’s Karen Valby, Chris Hemsworth talked about what did not work for his fourth solo outing as the God of Thunder.
He expressed his regrets about focussing more on comedy in the sequel. He explained: “I got caught up in the improv and the wackiness, and I became a parody of myself.
I didn’t stick the landing.” Earlier in the interview, Hemsworth described why he grew frustrated with playing Thor. He stated that the other Avengers had better character arcs, while he as Thor only “felt like a security guard for the team.” Then, Thor: Ragnarok tweaked the character.
