AceShowbiz - Christian Bale will play the villain in the new "Thor" movie, according to Tessa Thompson.
The actress let the news slip to Entertainment Tonight at the "Westworld" season three premiere, revealing she can't wait to work with "The Dark Knight" star.
"Christian Bale is going to play our villain, which is going to be fantastic," she told ET. "I've read the script (but) I can't tell you much."
And she's not the only one excited about "Thor: Love and Thunder". Natalie Portman, who returns as Jane Foster in the new movie, loves the idea of sharing the screen with her fellow Oscar winner.
"(There have been) lots of exciting text messages exchanged between Natalie and I," Tessa added. "We're going to have fun."
The actress also revealed she'll be playing King Valkyrie in the new movie.
"She's king," she said. "If she can't find her queen, she'll just be king and queen at the same time."
"Thor: Love and Thunder" is scheduled to hit theaters in November 2021.
