Mad Max helmer George Miller has reportedly shown interest in working with Marvel for upcoming projects like Thor 5 and Hulk. Though his initial plans for a DCU film (Justice League: Mortal) could not be materialized due to the 2007-08 WGA strike, seeing him behind the lens for a Marvel movie would not be much of a surprise!

When asked in an interview with ComicBook about his interest in directing a Marvel movie, Miller replied that he would definitely like to work with the iconic comic media franchise. He even mentioned in a statement to Deadline that he loves to watch Marvel movies. Miller's exact words were:

"I watch all of them. To be honest, in terms of this debate, cinema is cinema and it’s a very broad church. The test, ultimately, is what it means to the audience."

This he said while countering Martin Scorcese's anti-Marvel opinion. The latest updates have given rise to a lot of anticipation on social media as to how the future looks for MCU and George Miller.

According to reports, George Miller expressed his urge to work with Chris Hemsworth in the upcoming Thor movie in the MCU. He said:

"I would work with Chris on anything. I really would. He’s a wonderful actor. He’s got the full range of all the skills… I mean, you’ve got to be athletic, physically… But, you also gotta be athletic emotionally and intellectually to take on these very, ultimately fairly complex, any role really."

Even though nothing is official as of now, the possibility of a sequel makes sense after the story of Thor: Love And Thunder. Fans are still awaiting confirmation on a fifth Thor movie, and as no filmmaker is yet attached to the upcoming chapter, Miller's interest will likely materialize into something!

Further reports have revealed that Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga star Chris Hemsworth was the bridge between Kevin Feige and George Miller.

Per The Cosmic Circus, Marvel Studios is already at work for World War Hulk. Bruce Banner will reportedly return to an unfavorable society with 'Hulks' being genetically engineered by the US government. The Savage Hulk going up against President Ross's Red Hulk is something fans are eagerly waiting for.
