It was actress Tessa Thompson who recently confirmed that Christian Bale would be the new villain of Thor: Love and Thunder. Suspected for a few months of having joined the cast, it is now confirmed! Bale could even play Balder, a bastard son of Odin. Tessa Thompson (Men in Black: International, Creed), who will once again play her role as Valkyrie in this new installment, recently confirmed the information:
"Christian Bale is going to play our villain and it's going to be fantastic!" Tessa Thompson for E.T
Christian Bale: Mystery character
Little information has circulated about Bale's character. If some already see Balder, other characters seem just as credible. We think in particular of the minotaur Dario Agger or Gorr, the massacrer of Gods (no less). Anyway, it promises for the former interpreter of Batman. For his part, Chris Hemsworth will still be in the skin of the Scandinavian god and Natalie Portman will return to the saga to resume her role of Jane Foster (after a rather noticeable absence). As for the direction, it is Taika Waititi (Thor Ragnarok) who returns to take the reins of the film. Despite recent events affecting the world of cinema, no change information is known for the shooting and the film is still scheduled for November 5, 2021. As for Christian Bale, he turns this spring in the new film of David O. Russell (Happiness Therapy), which will force Marvel to wait a little bit…
