Back in October, it was announced that What We Do in the Shadows director Taika Waititi is set bring his talents to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, helming the God of Thunder’s third solo outing, Thor: Ragnarok.
Speaking to Collider at Sundance where he’s promoting his new film Hunt for the Wilderpeople, the New Zealand filmmaker has been speaking about what he hopes to bring to the movie, stating that he wants to inject his own brand of humour.
“I love that one moment in Avengers when Hulk grabs Loki and rag dolls him. It lends itself to great humor, do you read those comic books? They’re wacky. They’re crazy. I think that‘s exactly what they need, to keep changing it up. They’ve got their dark films, some are more serious, and I think it’s great that they’re mixing it up. I really want to inject my style of humor into this.”
