In a talk with Deadline on the red carpet, Barry Bas Idoine told an easygoing story about filming the highly awaited naked Thor scene. According to him, the nude scene of the actor made it extremely difficult to concentrate on their job, and he said the crew faced difficulty to get the shot that had us waiting after the trailer tease. He said it’s “incredibly hard to shoot Chris Hemsworth’s butt.”

“It’s incredibly hard to shoot Chris Hemsworth’s butt. I mean, nobody concentrates, nobody does their job, everybody’s looking at the butt, they’re not looking at what they’re supposed to be doing. That was a challenge.”

The incredible fondness between fans and Fat Thor since Avengers: Endgame has also stimulated some serious conversations about self-love. He wanted to keep Fat Thor, not only for a comedic base but also to explore a new aspect of the hero that was not illustrated by his physical stature. Thor: Love & Thunder will get into the roots of expressive aspects within the character, evolving him through different stages of his midlife dilemma. A fierce drilling montage may just be one step closer to Thor discovering himself, facing difficulties, and confronting new rivals such as Gorr the God Butcher.
