Thanks to some paparazzi set photos, it was revealed earlier this year thatMatt Damonwill be reprising his cameo role as Actor Loki inThor: Love and Thunder. (Unfortunately,Tom Hiddlestonwon’t be returning as the real Loki for the fourth Thor movie, but at least he’ll appear again in Season 2 of his own show.) The Marvel films are always filled with fun cameos and easter eggs, and fans were completely surprised seeingMatt Damonpretending to be the God of Mischief inThor: Ragnarok.
The Oscar winner spilled the beans while being interviewed on SiriusXM’sThe Jess Cagle Show. With this confirmation, and how hilarious his cameo was in the previous film, it definitely amps up anticipation for the new one. In Damon’s own words:
I don’t know if it’s secret or not though everybody knows. I went down there to shoot. I think they sussed out because paparazzi took pictures of us so that they sussed out what we were doing. We were kind of reprising a cameo that we, that Luke Hemsworth and I did in the last one. And we had a ball and so Taika [Waititi] had us back again, to kind of run that joke back and upgrade it a little bit.
Damon’s comments confirm thatLuke Hemsworthwill also return as Actor Thor, which will surely be another great cameo. While it may be a given that there’s probably another play, it would be amusing if it turns out that Actor Loki and Actor Thor are actually variants of the ones we know and love. There is a multiverse after all, so it’s possible.
