Though originally meant to be a surprise cameo, Deadline has confirmed that Russell Crowe has a role in the upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder after he was spotted in set photos. Crowe lives in Australia, where the movie is being filmed.
There is currently no information about Crowe’s role in the film, but insiders say he is just one of many surprises. Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman will be reprising their roles as Thor and Doctor Jane Foster. Matt Damon will also be reprising his cameo from Thor: Ragnarok, and Christian Bale will be playing the film’s villain.
Taika Waititi is returning as director of the film, which is set to release on May 6, 2022.
