As to when the details about the director will be revealed, Feige said that fans will be receiving the news soon,  "probably towards the end of the summer we would announce a filmmaker and a writer.

Casts for the film will include, of course, Chris Hemsworth for the titular role, and Tom Hiddleston as Loki. Actress Jaimie Alexander is also apparently part of the cast as she confirmed during the San Diego Comic Con that fans will soon be witnessing her character, Sif, in the upcoming film, although she also admitted that she still does not know how much she will be playing in the upcoming movie.
