"Thor: Ragnarok" has added "Jurassic Park" star Sam Neill to its cast. The actor himself spills the beans about his secret role in the third "Thor" movie during an interview with ShortList. "I'm not really allowed to say this and I can't tell you what it is...I did a couple of days on 'Thor' just before I came over here," he reveals.
Noting that he has been sworn to secrecy, he adds that he "had to sign all sorts of things. So if I say anything else, Marvel's secret agents - and they are lethal - will come and get me and probably my children, as well."
The role reunites Neill with helmer Taika Waititi who directed him in "Hunt for the Wilderpeople" as well as with "Jurassic Park" co-star Jeff Goldblum.
Chris Hemsworth is back as Thor, Tom Hiddleston returns as Loki, Idris Elba reprises his role as Heimdall, and Anthony Hopkins once again plays Odin. Added to the cast are Cate Blanchett as Hela, Karl Urban as Skurge, and Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, while Mark Ruffalo will reprise his Marvel role Bruce Banner/Hulk.
The movie is currently in production in Australia. Hemsworth recently showed his bulked-up body for his role as the God of Thunder. The movie is due out November 3, 2017 in the United States.
