Marvel has tapped Taika Waititi to direct Thor: Ragnarok.
The report also confirms Chris Hemsworth will be back to reprise as Thor, but makes no mention of Tom Hiddleston, who recently questioned returning to the role of Loki.
Taiki Waititi also wrote and directed episodes of Flight of the Conchords and is a writer on Disney’s upcoming animated feature Moana, which stars Dwayne Johnson.
As noted, Taika also appeared alongside Ryan Reynolds in the 2011 Green Lantern movie as Tom Kalmaku.
Thor: Ragnarok has a November 3, 2017 release.
