Zack Sharf Digital News Director Chris Hemsworth graces the cover of Vanity Fair’s May 2024 issue, where he revealed that he feels Marvel fans deserve another “Thor” movie after the whiff that was 2022’s “Thor: Love and Thunder.” The actor already admitted to GQ last year that his fourth standalone “Thor” movie was “too silly” for its own good, but the misstep appears to continue to haunt him. “I got caught up in the improv and the wackiness, and I became a parody of myself,” Hemsworth told Vanity Fair. “I didn’t stick the landing.” While Hemsworth has always been grateful for his career-defining role as Thor, he admitted to the publication that he grew frustrated with the character while playing him in four standalone Marvel films and additional “Avengers” movies.
WGA Strike Leaders Chris Keyser and David Goodman Warn Members to Stay Vigilant: ‘The Strike is Over, the Fight Goes On’
15.04.2024 - 00:45 / variety.com
Cynthia Littleton Business Editor Chris Keyser and David Goodman, the veteran showrunners who steered the five-month Writers Guild of America strike last year, warned guild members on Sunday to stay vigilant in a fast-changing business landscape despite the gains of last year’s historic labor action. “Though this strike is over, the fight goes on. If we take our eye off the ball, everything we gained can literally go away tomorrow,” Goodman told the crowd at the Writers Guild Awards at the Hollywood Palladium.
Goodman and Keyser served as co-chairs of the WGA‘s negotiating commttee last year. The pair, both past presidents of the WGA West, were honored with the guild’s Morgan Cox Awards for dedicated service. “Nothing is given to labor that it does not demand,” Keyser told the crowd.
Keyser said the long struggle of last year was the end result of a long period of getting the union to be more aggressive in contract negotiations. “It was about education for the Writers Guild. It was a transformation that took nearly 20 years and had its ups and owns and in the end it turned us into a fighting force.
It taught us to trust each other and our allies and it led us to accomplish that which every single person that you meet said we could not do that. Again and again,” Keyser said. “It’s an unbroken chain of sacrifice and bravery that begins with the generation that fought the strike of 2007 and 2008 — [former WGA West president] Patrick Verrone and [former WGA West executive director] David Young — and it extends to to the strike authorization vote of 2017 and the strike 2023.” References to the strike were frequent in New York where the WGA East held a simultaneous ceremony at the Edison Ballroom in Manhattan.
