Director Alan Taylor Claims Thor 2

After losing director Patty Jenkins earlier this month over creative differences, Marvel Studios have decided upon a replacement for their sequel Thor 2, and according to Deadine, it’s Alan Taylor, the director who has mainly been helming television shows for HBO like “Game of Thrones,” “Boardwalk Empire” and “The Sopranos” (for which he won an Emmy) with a resumé that goes back to “Oz.”

His last feature was 2003’s Kill the Poor and he directed Palookaville in 1995. With a director accustomed to working fast, the film is back on track for its November 15, 2013 release date, working from the script co-written by Don Payne.
