Christian Bale Reveals Two Marvel Characters That Were Cut From THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER

Christian Bale, who plays Gorr The God Butcher in Thor: Love and Thunder, recently revealed that there were two Marvel characters that were supposed to appear in the film, but didn’t make the final cut.

During a recent interview with Prensa Escenario, Bale said that he filmed scenes with both Peter Dinklage and Jeff Goldblum. Dinklage previously appeared as Eitri, the King of the Dwarves, in Avengers: Infinity War. Jeff Goldblum played the Grandmaster in Thor: Ragnarok. Here’s what Bale said:

"I got to work with Peter Dinklage. That’s not in the final film but he’s fantastic. I got to work with Jeff Goldblum, he’s not in the final film either. As you see, lots of stuff ends up on the cutting room floor, even though it was beautiful, brilliant stuff."

Neither of these characters were previously confirmed to appear in the film, but Goldblum had previously jokingly addressed the possibility Grandmaster coming back for it in an interview with Esquire saying:

"Am I going to be in Love and Thunder? The truth is, and I can say it now because the trailer has come out, I appear in it. It's my most challenging role to date, and I believe my highest accomplishment. I'm not seen, visually. You never see me. And you don't hear me. Nor am I referred to, I believe, in any scene. I am sensed, only vibrationally.”

So, even though the scenes they shot with him in the movie were cut, don’t worry, you’ll still be able to sense his presence. Hopefully, these deleted scenes will be shared when the movie is released on home entertainment. I like these characters, and it’d be cool to see what their place in the story would have been.
