Taika Waititi Reveals His Plans For A Potential ‘Thor 5’, Including ‘Outlandish & Crazy’ Monsters & A ‘More Formidable’ Villain
etcanada.comWhile Marvel has yet to make an official announcement about another “Thor” sequel, director Taika Waititi reveals he’s got some ideas for a potential fifth film continuing the exploits of Chris Hemsworth’s hammer-wielding hero. “What is left to do to him?
