Kevin Feige said toMake it Bigger?
InLove and Thunder, when Thor along with Jane Foster, Valkyrie, and Korg go to Omnipotence City to seek help from Zeus played by theGladiatorfame Russel Crowe, there’s a hilarious scene where Zeus ripped off Thor and there we spotted an exciting easter egg in the form of a “RIP Loki”Tattoo on Thor’s back.
The particular scene was centered around when Thor went to speak with Zeus regarding Gorr, the God Butcher, Zeus get angered by the God of Thunder and ripped off his clothes in front of everyone. Taika Waititispoke to Insiderthat there had been plans for a similar scene inRagnarokbut for some reason, it couldn’t able to make it to the film so he needed anyhow to put that in this movie:
It was a comedy bit that was supposed to be in “Ragnarok.” When Loki faked his death and he’s reunited with Thor and Thor can’t believe he’s alive, he was to say, “I mourned you, look I even got this stupid tattoo,” and Thor lifts his sleeve and it’s a tattoo that says “RIP Loki.” For some reason, it didn’t make it into the film, but I was determined to get it into this one so I doubled down and put it on his back.
To his idea, the Marvel head Kevin Feige amusingly remarked to make it bigger so that it can cover Hemsworth’s entire back:
And then [Marvel Studios head] Kevin [Feige] was like, “Can we make it five times bigger?” [Laughs.] So that’s why it covered his entire back.
Although Loki is somewhat alive in MCU in a way still not so it is a creative move to feature the God of Mischief in that way in a Thor movie.
