Ok, yeah the #NataliePortman weapons are going to have their own list in the #ThorLoveAndThunder credits, but I’m more interested in choosing the costume as a deliberate reminder.

Additionally, a new behind-the-scenes video is circulating the internet that features Portman playing a risky action scene.

On the plane in question, it is possible to notice that it is suspended in the air with the help of safety equipment and stuntmen. Additionally, she seems to be receiving a heavy load on her body, relying on her quick movements.

Also check out other behind-the-scenes footage:

The film’s cast includes Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tessa Thompson and Christian Bale, as well as Dave Bautista and Vin Diesel.

The comic recently reported that the sequel received a rather curious production title: “The Big Salad.”

It’s likely that the choice of the call had to do with a specific moment of the God of Thunder (Hemsworth) in ‘Avengers: Endgame’: in a certain scene, the hero goes into depression after being defeated by Thanos ( Josh Brolin), leading – to gain weight and be pushed by his mother, Frigga, who tells him to eat a plate of salad.

Directed by Taika Waititi, the new film is set to open on February 11, 2022 (opening of the American Valentine’s Day weekend).
