The Thor: Love and Thunder deleted scenes have been revealed, and sadly, they are just as lame as the movie itself.
It’s known that director Taika Waititi shot around four hours of footage, but only two hours made it into the final cut that aired in theaters.
It’s also known that some of that footage was pretty epic as it featured Christian Bale’s Gorr the God Butcher killing Jeff Goldblum’s The Grandmaster and Peter Dinklages’ Eitri, as well as Game of Thrones actress Lena Headey was going to appear as a Valkyrie.
Bale said they were some beautiful and brilliant scenes.
“I got to work with Peter Dinklage. That’s not in the final film but I got to work with him, he’s fantastic,” Bale told a YouTuber. “I got to work with Jeff Goldblum. He’s not in the final film, either. As you see lots of stuff ends up on the cutting room floor even though it is beautiful brilliant stuff.”
It’s thought that Waititi basically shot two versions of the movie, with the goofy version we got in theaters, and the second featuring the more serious footage that was cut.
Well, fans voted with their dollars and obviously wanted the more serious version as the flick has actually been compared to that of Batman & Robin and Eternals, and it failed to live up to the box office expectations of Thor: Ragnarok as it only brought in $738 million worldwide at the box office (even less than The Batman).
