While talking about the same, during an interview with the officials at 7News Australia, the Thor: Love And Thunder actor can be heard saying that it is the biggest "pinch-myself" moment, as he had grown with the film series and given the fact that the franchise is so iconic, it's a huge honour for the Thor: Love And Thunder actor. To the same, he added that he sure feels "A lot of pressure",  but it is "exciting pressure"  which is very much motivating in nature. George Miller and the film's producer, Doug Mitchell, were heard sharing that June 23, 2023 is when the film will be released by Warner Bros. theatrically. The titular character of the George Miller directorial will be played by Anya-Taylor Joy of The Queen's Gambit fame.
