The star of Thor: Love and Thunder he does not remember the experience fondly, calling it “the definition of monotony”.

“This is the first time I’ve done this. I mean, the definition of him is monotony. You have good people. You have other actors who are much more experienced than me. Can you differentiate one day from another? No, absolutely no. You have no idea what to do. I couldn’t even differentiate one phase from the next. They kept saying, “You are in the third stage.” Well, it’s like “What is that?” “The blue one.” I’m like, “Yes. But you are on stage seven. “Which is that?” “The blue one.” I was like “Uh, where?”
