Chris Hemsworth aka Thor, has spoken to Slashfilm about the upcoming sequel.

Most notable is that the film will shoot in August, but he also mentions reading the script and meeting with Natalie and new director, Alan Taylor. Apparently Taylor wants to bring a bit more of a tangible quality to Asgard, which should be a good thing because as pretty as it was in the first film, it never felt like a real place.

What’s also encouraging is a Collider interview with Marvel honcho, Kevin Feige, in which he admits the Thor-Jane relationship was a “quick crush”, and that the evolution of their relationship will be the primary focus of the sequel.
