Natalie Portman on playing first female Thor: Excited to wield the hammer

Oscar-winner Natalie Portman who is all set to return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe with 'Thor: Love and Thunder' said that she is very excited to "wield the hammer".

According to a report, Portman said, "I'm very excited to wield the hammer." "They came to me with the idea and said, 'We have this idea for you that was a storyline in some of the comics where Jane becomes Lady Thor,' and I was like, 'This is very exciting!'" she added.

She went on to explain her absence from the 2017 film 'Thor: Ragnarok' saying, "Obviously, I wasn't written into because of where it took place. It wasn't really on Earth, and my character is on Earth."

The news that Portman will be the first female Thor was announced at this year's Comic-Con at San Diego. The actor even appeared on stage alongside Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson. The 'Black Swan' actor described her fellow actors "so exciting to work with."

"I love Tessa and Chris so much," she added. While Portman has starred in previous Thor films as the titular character's love interest Jane Foster, this is her first stint as Thor!

"Her super new role in the fourth Thor film is based on Jason Aaron's comic book run that saw Jane Foster ultimately become the Mighty Lady Thor when Thor Odinson finds himself unworthy of picking up Mjolnir for the first time in the rebooted Thor #1".

Along with Portman, the upcoming film will also star Thompson as Valkyrie, one of Marvel's first queer superheroes, along with Hemsworth. It's slated to hit the theatres in November 2021.

Jeremy Renner takes to social media to express his anguish over 'Spider-Man' exit

The Marvel Cinematic Universe will reportedly no longer produce Spider-Man films as the deal between Disney and Sony Pictures has ended and the two giant studios have parted ways now.

The two studios have been sharing the Spider-Man brand across a plethora of films since 2015 and sharing profits. However, both the parties recently opted to break the deal as they are "unable" to reach new terms for funding of future movies, as reported by Hollywood media.

While social media saw an uproar from the fans expressing their anguish over the split which resulted in the exit of Spider-Man from MCU, 'Avengers-Endgame' actor Jeremy Renner wasn't far behind in expressing his thoughts on the same.

Renner took to social media and wrote, "Hey @sonypictures we want Spider-Man back to @therealstanlee and @marvel please, thank you #congrats #spidermanrocks #🏹 #please"

'Spider-Man' only began appearing in Marvel films after a highly secretive, 2015 deal struck between the Hollywood giants but with the deal coming to an end the future of the teen web-slinger in MCU seems to be very bleak. 

Channing Tatum quits Instagram, says gonna go and be just in the real world for a while and off my phone

On Wednesday, the American actor and singer broke million hearts with an announcement. He shared his decision of quitting social media as he wants to take a break and be away from his phone for a while. In his announcement, he also added that he needs a break and would be taking a hiatus from Instagram and his other social media accounts.

He wrote, “I’m gonna take a break and come off socials for a minute,” he wrote in a post to his fans. “I’ve been trying to get inspired and create again. And to be honest I don’t really feel, or at least I haven’t felt very creative on social in the last couple years now. I’m gonna go and be just in the real world for a while and off my phone. I’ll probably come back at some point. But if I do I want to have a direction or a clear point of view of why I’m on here and what I’m putting out there.”

Probably, the reason for him to take this decision is he wants to get inspired and create again. While it came as a shocker to some of his fans, some supported him with his decision of staying away from social media.

“Sometimes the best way to re-balance and clear our mind to refocus, is to completely disconnect from the noise,” commented a fan. “Disconnect to reconnect with yourself,” commented another. “Good decision, sometimes you need to be off . Of everything,” a fan added further. 

Tom Holland: I live the most regular life ever

It has been a crazy ride to fame for Tom Holland, who is winning hearts all around the world as the new Spider-Man. But he does not want to get lost in the glitz and glamour of the industry.

The actor thinks he has done a great job at evading the spotlight, and says he lives the most normal and regular life ever. 

"I have done quite a good job of only being in the spotlight when I need to be. Like I don't get paparazzied. I don't go to fancy parties. I don't do that kind of stuff," Holland said in an interview while promoting his film 'Spider-Man: Far From Home'  in Bali.

"When I am not on the press tour or doing red carpet, I live the most normal and regular life ever. I have done a good job, at kind of, keeping out of the spotlight when it is possible," he added.

How important it is to stay away from the limelight?

"It is very important because you can get lost in it. No one will ever say no (to you) and no one will ever tell you anything bad. That is why I keep my brothers, my family very close because they will tell me that 'I am being an idiot or not'," the 23-year-old said. 

"So, it is super important and I try very hard to keep away from it. And that is why when I am not on the press tour, you will never see me in the newspaper or on a tabloid because I am at home playing golf," added the actor, who has three brothers Sam, Paddy and Harry.

The London native says working and travelling back-to-back can get lonely, and being with family helps him deal with it well.

"What is great is that they (family members) don't tag along because Harry works (with me). He is a videographer. And we are actually planning to direct our film this year, which is exciting. Sam sleeps in his hotel room. He is on a holiday here," he said with a chuckle.

On a serious note, he said, "It is lovely to be able to share this process because it will be quite lonely otherwise. I spend so much time on the road."

For Holland, the path towards showbiz began getting carved when he was a child. The son of English comedian Dominic Holland studied dance when he was in school, and went on to do 'Billy Elliot The Musical'. 

He featured in films like 'The Impossible', 'How I Live Now', 'In The Heart of the Sea' and 'The Lost City of Z'. But his big ticket to Hollywood came with role as the iconic web-slinger.

Holland was introduced as Spider-Man in 'Captain America: Civil War' in 2016. He got his first solo movie with 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' which took the superhero back to school.

He will be back as the superhero with his second solo movie 'Spider-Man: Far From Home.

The actor might not be a superhero or the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man in real life, but he came across as a friendly and affable person with a charming personality, with the way he cracked jokes in the middle of the interview, by taking a jibe at his track record of giving out spoilers and a little panic attack when he was unable to find his phone in his pocket.

Looking back at his journey, he said, "It has been crazy man. 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' was a whirlwind, and the press tour was crazy. And since then I haven't stopped. I have been lucky that I have been making movies and working with people who I really admire."

He says the ride in showbiz has so far been fun, but a little tiring as well.

"I have learnt this year that sometimes working too much leads to doing bad work. I am kind of learning to take a little bit of break and look after myself a little bit better."
