Thor Odinson makes his triumphant return to the MCU with the
franchise's latest installment, Thor: Love and Thunder,
once again starring Chris Hemsworth in the titular role alongside
Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, and writer-director Taika Waititi.
Waititi's co-writer, Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, discusses the
process of landing her first Marvel gig: “My journey with Marvel
has been long; I pitched on Black Widow, I pitched on
Hawkeye, I pitched on Captain Marvel 2, so I
pitched on several different films. Kevin [Feige] is so specific
and such a genius when it comes to putting the right person on the
right project… and Kevin was like, ‘This is not the right thing for
you, but we’re going to put you on Thor...' and then a
week later, I was in a room with Brad [Winderbaum] and Taika
talking about the lore and coming onto the project.”
Robinson goes on to share the importance of pushing yourself
and not being afraid to make mistakes: "Don't let the fear of the
thing being bad or wrong or weird get in the way of you doing it...
If you mess up, if you fail like I've failed, it's fine... you just
have to blindly believe in yourself because no one is going to care
about you as much as you. No one is going to believe in you as much
as you."
Thor: Love and Thunder is now playing in
theaters.
