Taika Waititi Reveals Some Major Behind The Scenes Information
In a recent interview with Insider, Taika Waititi discussed how painful it was to cut some scenes and actors, while at the same time there was no other choice.
Waititi opened, “I wrote the thing so when you cut anything it’s a little bit of a challenge to yourself because you’re like, “Am I not that good? Should I have seen this coming?”
He further added, “But every film I’ve done I’ve probably cut the same amount out. When you go into the edit you just never know. A scene on its own could be the most funniest thing or intriguing thing, but sometimes those things if you keep them in will just make the movie screech to a halt. So you have to do what’s best for the film.”
“And if you ask any of those actors who were cut out — Jeff Goldblum, Lena Headey, Peter Dinklage — they all understand how it works. They have been in the game long enough. But that’s just the way I look at things,” Waititi concluded.
Lena Headey Is Webbed Under A Lawsuit
After this reveal by Taika Waititi, fans are keen to know who Lena Headey would have embodied in the movie. Speculations are indicating that she would have played Amora the Enchantress or a valkyrie. Jeff Goldblum and Peter Dinklage would probably have reprised their MCU roles of the Grandmaster and Eitri respectively. They would have fallen victim to Gorr.
Well, this leads to a recent gossip regarding Lena Headey being sued for $1.5 million by her former talent agency. The agency claims that she owes them unpaid commission fees. That includes ‘Thor: Love and Thunder,’ even though she didn’t make the final cut. From MCU debut getting canceled to getting webbed in a lawsuit, Headey is pretty much going through a tough phase. Hope some luck showers on her soon.
