Things We Saw Today: Sam Neill Joins Thor: Ragnarok
While Sam Neill’s involvement in any upcoming Jurassic projects is as of yet unconfirmed, the actor did let it slip that he’ll be participating in another big franchise–namely, the MCU. In an interview with ShortList for his current project Hunt for the Wilderpeople (also by director Taika Waititi), Neill said he’d just filmed a bit on Thor: Ragnarok just prior to the press junket: “I had to sign all sorts of things. So if I say anything else, Marvel’s secret agents — and they are lethal — will come and get me and probably my children, as well.” Maybe we can look forward to a mini Jurassic-reunion with him and Jeff Goldblum?
- Remember the new DuckTales series that’s coming to Disney XD?

Pretty neat, huh?
