Now, taking to Twitter, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 director James Gunn has confirmed he is working as a consultant on the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe film – which is set to be directed by Taika Waititi and looks likely include all of the Guardians (sans Gamora) as we pick up from Avengers: Endgame.

Although plot details for Thor: Love and Thunder are currently being kept under wraps, Natalie Portman seemingly confirmed that the sequel will incorporate Jane Foster’s cancer storyline from the comic books.

Directed by Thor: Ragnarok helmer Taika Waititi, who also reprises his on-screen role as Korg, Thor: Love and Thunder stars Chris Hemsworth (Thor), alongside the returning Natalie Portman (Jane Foster), Tessa Thompson (Valkyrie), Jaimie Alexander (Lady Sif), Chris Pratt (Star-Lord), Karen Gillan (Nebula), Dave Bautista (Drax), and Christian Bale (Ford v Ferrari) as Gorr the God Butcher.
