What happened to the version of 'Thor: The Dark World' that Patty Jenkins was supposed to direct?
The modern version of the Thor movies is brimming with confidence. As the release of Thor: Love and Thunder approaches, anticipation grows ever greater for this entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, based on the positive reception of the last solo Thor outing, Thor: Ragnarok. Plus, the character of Thor managed to have scene-stealing supporting roles in each of the last two Avengers installments.
Though their works as filmmakers were drastically different, it’s easy to see very broad parallels between Jenkins and original Thor director Kenneth Branagh. Before signing on to helm Marvel Studios productions, nobody would have ever associated either human being with superhero fare. Branagh was known for his William Shakespeare adaptations, while Jenkins had directed the grim 2003 crime feature Monster.
After the departure of Jenkins, Marvel Studios began scouring the globe for a new director for Thor 2. The project’s November 2013 release date was fast approaching and, as if that weren’t enough, there was also rumored behind-the-scenes turmoil of Natalie Portman allegedly being frustrated that Jenkins was no longer involved in the feature.
Speaking to Vanity Fair on the topic in 2020, Jenkins also noted that part of the problem with Thor: The Dark World was that she felt that her inability to make a good movie out of the script Marvel Studios was committed to would’ve irreparably damaged her career. Feeling that her heart wasn’t in this project and that there weren’t any upsides to anything going wrong with it, Jenkins left behind The Dark World.
