Although Christian Bale will make his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the film Thor: Love and Thunder, the actor has revealed that he has not seen any of the previous films that have focused on Chris Hemsworth’s version of the God of Thunder.
When asked why he thought Thor was such a hit with moviegoers, Bale offered the following in response: “My only exposure to Thor was in the films Ragnarok and Love and Thunder, both of which starred Chris Hemsworth as the title character. I haven’t looked at the other ones yet.” In spite of the fact that Bale did not spend much time with the role, he had nothing but complimentary things to say about his co-star Hemsworth. Bale was quoted as saying to Prensaescenario, “You’ve got an actor who was born to play Thor.” “Who else but you could accomplish that? He’s a monster of a man, but also one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, and he absolutely obliterates the competition. He does an amazing job portraying this persona.”
The original Thor film, Thor: The Dark World, and Thor: Ragnarok came before Thor: Love and Thunder, which is the character’s fourth solo outing. Additionally, the character has made cameo appearances in a number of other Marvel Cinematic Universe films, notably as the various Avengers ensemble flicks and Doctor Strange (2016). Thor is the first character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to reach four solo outings, and Hemsworth is undecided as to whether or not this will be his final appearance as the God of Thunder. “Every time I take the stage as Thor, I keep thinking, “This is the very last time they’ll let me do it.” Hemsworth said, “So, I don’t know,” before adding that he would “come back for more and more until someone kicks [him] off the stage.””
His run as Batman came to an end with the release of 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises, and the first character in a comic book movie that Christian Bale has taken on since then is the monstrous Gorr the God Butcher in the film Love and Thunder. Bale believes that he can better showcase his talents by portraying a villain rather than a hero. “It is the least difficult task. Since the audience is always interested in the antagonist, portraying the role of the antagonist is rather simple. Taking on the role of the hero is the most difficult job of all “He gave an explanation.
Dealing with the prosthetics that were necessary to change him into Gorr was one of the aspects of the character that was more challenging for Bale to portray. In order to play the character, Christian Bale was required to shave his head, spend several hours per day having his makeup performed, and even have acrylic nails applied. “I was a pitiful human being,” he admitted. “I was surprised to see that I was having thoughts such as, “I don’t think I can walk since I have long nails.” It had an effect on my mental state. I was thinking something along the lines of “I can’t eat, I have long nails.” I was attempting to type something. I was powerless to take any action.”
