Marvel fans want to know if Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, The Creator, and 2014’s Godzilla director Gareth Edwards is directing Thor 5 film for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Or, if it’s not him, who else could be directing the new MCU movie?

Does Thor 5 have a director yet?

No, Thor 5 does not have a director officially attached to the project at the time of writing.

At the time of publishing, Thor 5 has not been officially confirmed by Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige, let alone a director attached to the film. However, industry insider DanielRPK, who is semi-reliable when it comes to Marvel rumors and scoops, has revealed that Marvel Studios was not only reportedly planning a fifth Thor film but were also reportedly eyeing 2014’s Godzilla and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story director Gareth Edwards to take the directing gig.

Moreover, RPK has also revealed Marvel’s reported reasoning for considering Edwards, which is supposedly wanting the film to have more of a dark and mature tone compared to the last two films directed by Taika Waititi, which were intentionally light-hearted, humorous, and over-the-top.

While Edwards is reportedly considered for Thor 5, fans have also thrown in other names like Furiosa’s George Miller, the Russo Brothers, and Zack Snyder for the directing gig.

However, fans should take all this information with a grain of salt, like with all rumors, and wait for official confirmation from Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige.

Is Gareth Edwards directing the new Thor movie?

At the time of writing, Gareth Edwards has not been officially confirmed to direct the new Thor movie.

Marvel Studios has not confirmed Gareth Edwards as Thor 5’s director. However, Gareth Edwards would definitely be a great pick to helm Thor 5 as he has proven via Rogue One, Godzilla, and The Creator that he can handle darker and more mature stories.
