The creative excitement level was through the roof at the ‘Thor: Ragnarok’ world premiere Tuesday night in Los Angeles. The main focus of the conversation was the third Thor film is new and different. When you say things like this, it’s sort of a backhanded compliment to all the previous films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. As of late, the MCU gets labeled ‘cookie-cutter’ more often than not, but it was surprising to hear Chris Hemsworth admit that he was bored.
“It was kind of a perfect storm of different ideas and a great, wonderful collaboration. After doing the second Thor and the second Avengers felt a little bored with myself and what I’d done. And thought, “We can do more and let’s reach further.” Then Tiaka came on board, and we knew each other prior to this partnership, and both (of us) said yeah there’s a lot more to explore that we haven’t yet. So every day was about doing something different and taking risks and breaking the old version and reinventing it. I think we did that and it was the best experience I’ve had,” said Hemsworth at the ‘Thor: Ragnarok’ world premiere.
Has the MCU earned enough money for Disney to where Marvel Studios President, Kevin Feige can start taking risks with more creative filmmakers or different storylines?
