I Thor: Ragnarok får vi bekanta oss med en variation av udda figurer från olika planeter, där en av dessa - krigaren Korg - spelas av regissören själv, Taika Waititi, som till en början övervägde en annan stenrelaterad skådis för att spela stenjätten:
"Obviously, being made of rock, we really wanted someone like The Rock to play him. But there wasn't enough chicken or salmon in Australia to sustain both him and Chris [Hemsworth]. So we got the next best thing, which is we got this super hot young actor from New Zealand. This super hot young character actor named Taika Waititi"
Waititi passar även på att förklara vad som var tanken med karaktären och diskuterar utmaningen i att relatera till en stenig CGI-gigant:
"He is one of the few characters to befriend Thor on the planet. He helps him out and explains how things go and becomes an ally to Thor. Of course, he's 8-feet tall and made of rocks, and it's very hard to create a character who you want to relate to and really like... Being so big, he's a slugger. He's not very graceful. He just sort of hits hard. He uses his bulk size"
Gör Taika ett bra jobb som Korg, tror du?
Seså, det finns nyzeeländsk grus så det räcker till alla...
