Reynolds has said The Adam Project feels like “’80s wish-fulfillment.” The movie will see him as a man who goes back in time to get help from his younger self (Walker Scobell) to find their father (Mark Ruffalo) to save the future. The movie is also set to star Catherine Keener, Jennifer Garner, and Zoe Saldana. According to Reynolds, the movie is meant to feel like The Goonies, E.T., and other hits of the 1980s.
As for Hemsworth, he’ll soon be reprising his role as Thor in Thor: Love and Thunder. The movie is also set to feature the return of Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, and Jaimie Alexander as Lady Sig. Some some of the Guardians of the Galaxy stars are also expected to appear in the movie. In addition to the many returning favorites, Thor: Love and Thunder will feature Christian Bale as Gorr the God Butcher. It was also announced that Russell Crowe will be featured in the film, and the actor revealed last April that he will be playing Zeus. In the past, director Taika Waititi has teased that Thor: Love and Thunder “is so insane and also very romantic.” During a recent chat with Empire, the director emphasized that it’s “the craziest film” he’s ever done.
The Adam Project is now streaming on Netflix, and Thor: Love & Thunder is currently scheduled to hit theaters on July 8th.
