Paramount Pictures has won a bidding war for 'Down Under Cover', due to start shooting in Australia in February.
Thor actor Chris Hemsworth is the fourth recipient of AACTA's Trailblazer Award, designed to recognise an Australian screen practitioner who inspires others in the industry.
The next instalment in Marvel's 'Thor' franchise, 'Thor: Love and Thunder', helmed by Taika Waititi and set to star Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman, will be filmed at Fox Studios in Sydney.
Legendary Pictures' Kong: Skull Island and Thor: Ragnarok, the third instalment of the Marvel Studios’ franchise starring Chris Hemsworth as the hammer-wielding comic book Super Hero, will both shoot in Queensland.
If there was an element of risk when Disney/Marvel Studios hired Kiwi director Taika Waititi to helm the 'Thor' reboot – a massive jump in scale and ambition after his 'Hunt for the Wilderpeople' – that now seems a very smart bet.
The Thor actor has been nominated for a Rising Star Award at the prestigious BAFTAs
The world’s hottest directors, Joe and Anthony Russo ('Avengers: Endgame'), have agreed to co-produce 'Down Under Cover', a buddy cop action comedy that will star Chris Hemsworth and Tiffany Haddish.
'Thor: Love and Thunder' picks up with the titular character (played by Chris Hemsworth) on a journey unlike anything he’s ever faced – a quest for inner peace.
