On July 8, the Marvel Cinematic Universe will introduce fans to a new villain in Thor: Love and Thunder . The fourth installment of the god of thunder starring Chris Hemsworth hits theaters in less than a month, and in it, Christian Bale plays Gorr , a character who seeks to assassinate all the gods. His aesthetics and movements in the film's trailers have drawn a lot of attention from UCM fans and the surprises don't end there because Bale himself has shared his influences in order to bring this character to life and they are... unexpected.

During an interview with GamesRadar , Bale has discussed how he became fixated on Nosferatu , the iconic vampire. But also from a dance sequence inspired by Kate Bush , a famous singer in the 80s who has resurfaced now thanks to season 4 of Stranger Things and her song 'Running Up That Hill' . Lastly, the Oscar winner for best supporting actor for The Fighter also mentions a video by composer Aphex Twin .

"Mostly, hearing Taika's thoughts on it," Bale begins of how he built Gorr. "Obviously there's a slight Nosferatu attitude. Taika and I wanted to do a dance, which we couldn't do, but we had all this Kate Bush stuff that we worked with . I think she realized she was never going to be allowed to put that on. " in the final movie. I'd say the biggest thing I was looking at was Aphex Twin's 'Come to Daddy' video . I don't even know if this will be in the final movie."
Nosferatu's influence, especially on Gorr's aesthetic, is pretty clear. As for Aphex Twin and its video clip, there are also certain similarities on a visual level. The curious thing is the idea of Waititi and Bale to include a dance scene with Kate Bush, something that counteracts with that dark and terrifying image of the character .
Thor: Love and Thunder is set after the events of Avengers: Endgame . The god of thunder leaves New Asgard in the hands of Valkyrie ( Tessa Thompson ) and goes on a journey with the Guardians of the Galaxy . During an existential crisis, the protagonist will have to face a new threat and also the return of his former partner Jane Foster ( Natalie Portman ), who is now the bearer of Mjlnir and therefore the goddess of thunder.
