You already know that we here at Empire are big Sam Neill fans. So you can imagine how happy we are to learn that Neill will reunite with his Hunt For The Wilderpeople director Taika Waititi for Thor: Ragnarok.
Talking to ShortList, Neill revealed that he will be appearing in the new Thor film, which Waititi is busy directing. We don't, however, know exactly what he'll be doing? Can we expect Wilderpeople's grump-tastic Hec to show up in Asgard? Unlikely. Perhaps there will be a Jurassic Park reunion, with Neill playing a mysterious, etherial being alongside Jeff Goldblum. Whatever happens, it should be good.
Chris Hemsworth is back, of course, as Thor, with Tom Hiddleston's Loki causing more trouble. The cast also includes Idris Elba, Cate Blanchett, Tessa Thompson, Karl Urban and Anthony Hopkins.
Hunt For The Wilderpeople is on our screens now. Thor: Ragnarok will arrive on October 27 next year. Check out Neill's most recent visit to the Empire Podbooth below.
