Christian Bale gets into full costume as Marvel's Gorr the God Butcher in some new Thor: Love and Thunder set images.

It first came as a shock to many that the Batman Trilogy star was cast as Gorr the God Butcher in Thor: Love and Thunder. Gorr will be the primary villain in the film and will go head to head with Jane Foster (played by Natalie Portman) and Thor (Chris Hemsworth). Although we did see Bale hang around the film's main shoot in Australia, we never really got to see him in full costume.

Principal photography may have wrapped all the way back in June, however, it’s been reported that some additional photography and reshoots are now underway for Thor: Love and Thunder. Because of this, a set of images finally reveals Bale’s villain in all his god-butchery glory. Of course, this won't be his final look as there will definitely be some CGI added in there to make him look more menacing. 

Gorr first appeared in God of Thunder #1 (Thor, January 2013). He grew up on a nameless barren planet where there were no gods to help them. However, they still trust blindly in the gods. When Gorr's mother, mate, and children died, he thought gods could not exist and because of that, he became an outcast. When Gorr learned gods did exist but did not help those in need such as his dying family, Gorr vowed to kill them all. He then acquired All-Black from Knull. The Necrosword which also happens to be the very first symbiote.

Does this mean we'll finally get to see Venom and the symbiotes make an appearance in the MCU? I guess we'll have to watch Thor: Love and Thunder to answer that.
