Actor Chris Pratt is set to make an appearance as his Guardians of the Galaxy character Star-Lord in MCU's fourth Thor film.

Titled Thor: Love and Thunder, the film directed by Taikia Waititi features Chris Hemsworth in the lead as the titular superhero alongside Natalie Portman, who returns as Jane Foster to the franchise for the first time since 2013's Thor: The Dark World. Also part of the cast are Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie and Christian Bale in a mysterious role.

While the plot details are being kept under wraps, Waititi had revealed in July that the script of Thor: Love and Thunder is "insane and romantic."

The film was initially scheduled to start shooting in August in Australia, but the production got delayed due to the coronavirus outbreak, forcing the makers to push the release date from November 2021 to February 2022.
