Waititi, who recently wrote the script for Disney’s Moana, is also known for his work on Eagle vs. Shark.

Although I’m generally not a fan of the Thor movies, Waititi’s involvement would definitely be a huge draw for me; the projects he’s worked on are all hilarious, improbably sweet, and incredibly original.

Thoughts? What do you think Waititi’s take on the MCU would look like?
