Some films end up needing reshoots to fix unforeseen issues with plot and story, but in Thor: Ragnarok's case it seems it was to accommodate a favorite Marvel pastime; after credit sequences and cameos.
Thor: Ragnarok's Tessa Thompson, who plays the lethal Valkyrie in the upcoming Marvel epic, spoke to Collider at Comic-Con about the reshoots, which she also confirmed she was a part of. She also slyly confirmed the after credit sequences were a part of the equation.
"I was. Dude, we killed it. I mean hopefully, we did so many setups, and also what was so exciting was like at the end of a day you could see it cut in. For example, there...oooh, yeah I'm about to say something you're not supposed to say. Let's just say there are two characters in the film that potentially have a fight scene and some of the reshoots were just adding, so it wasn't like reshooting stuff, it was just additional photography, or shooting tags which may or may not have included cameos from fun people from elsewhere."
This could possibly include a cameo by the Guardians of the Galaxy, Doctor Strange, Iron Man, or any number of heroes involved in Avengers: Infinity War.
As for Thompson, she was enamored with how quickly the team is able to create these visual worlds from the simplest of setups.
"That's what's so neat. I remember there's one where you see Valkyrie on her Pegasus for example. Like at the end of a day they can show me that, that composite. Like at the top of the day I was on a horse, and at the bottom of the day, I was on a horse and the horse was doing nothing it was just still, and then at the end of the day the horse had wings and it was flying and I had a sword, and it's skilled folks that do this."
The description for Thor: Rangarok is included below.
