Though production began just under a month ago in Austrailia, the Hulk himself Mark Ruffalo has confirmed on Instagram that he has completed filming on the upcoming Thor: Ragnarok.
“Had such a great good fun time making this movie,” he wrote in a post. “Thanks Taika Waititi, Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson, and Marvel for the love and the laughs.”

Since production on the film will likely still continue for a few more months, this does raise the question of how big of a role The Hulk will play in the film. Since he’s a CG character, however, it does make sense that Ruffalo would have a limited time on the set, especially if his human alter ego Bruce Banner has a limited presence. You can check out a candid photo of Ruffalo with his greener half in the gallery below.
Thor: Ragnarok will feature the return of Chris Hemsworth as the God of Thunder himself, with Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Mark Ruffalo as the Hulk, Idris Elba as Heimdall and Sir Anthony Hopkins again portraying Odin. Cate Blanchett plays the mysterious and powerful new villain Hela, Jeff Goldblum stars as the eccentric Grandmaster, Tessa Thompson will bring the classic hero Valkyrie to life on the big screen, and Karl Urban will add his might to the fray as Skurge.
Kevin Feige will produce the film, joined by executive producers Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Victoria Alonso, Thomas M. Hammel and Stan Lee. The screenplay hails from Stephany Folsom, Craig Kyle, Eric Pearson and Christopher Yost. Current plans call for the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s “Phase Three” chapter to shoot until October, although production could feasibly continue through the end of the year.
Directed by Taika Waititi, Thor: Ragnarok will smash its way into theaters on November 3, 2017.
