Thor: Ragnarok Brings in New Writer
Marvel has sought out a new screenwriter to take the reigns for the second Thor sequel, THR reports.
Stephany Folsom has been given the job to pen a new draft of the script for Ragnarok, becoming the third female writer to take on a Marvel project.
Nicole Perlman originally wrote the screenplay before Guardians of the Galaxy prior to James Gunn taking over, and is now working on Captain Marvel with Inside Out co-writer Meg LeFauve.
Folsom becomes the third writer to work on Thor: Ragnarok, following Thor: The Dark World screenwriters Christopher Yost and Craig Kyle honing the script prior.
The film will begin production June 2016 with director Taika Waititi, who also has writing background. Little has become known about the upcoming film besides the fact that Mark Ruffalo's Hulk will appear in the film.
