Taika Waititi talked about an alleged connection between Thor: Love & Thunder and love novels. This confession may not be to the liking of Marvel fans.
The next film, from Marvel Studios, is just a few weeks away from being released in theaters on July 8th. As announced, one of the first Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 4 movies, Thor: Love and Thunder has been postponed several times due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Although he faced obstacles, Waititi finished the film on time. However, due to the full franchise program, marketing has suffered massive delays.

But he said that he tried to maintain the limits of the genre “, said sources from the aforementioned editorial office.
In the same interview, Waititi also shared that he always wants to keep the interesting elements that characterize him, always doing something unexpected. He did not go into detail about how the love novels helped him discover the story for Thor: Love & Thunder.
