At this point, waiting for a mid-credits scene is second nature for any Marvel fan. You don't want to miss any new teases for the next MCU movies, or any reveals about which actors are joining the super-powered franchise. (Recent new additions include Charlize Theron as Clea and Harry Styles as Eros.) Lucky for us, the MCU's latest installment, Thor: Love and Thunder, features a reveal of Herculean proportions that comes with a Ted Lasso-tinged twist.
No, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) doesn't do "biscuits with the boss" with King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) — although I would love to see that. And no, tragically, none of the characters do the "Dani Rojas" chant (Cristo Fernández, who plays Danny, doesappear in the mid-credits scene of Spider-Man: No Way Home). However, the surprise is still sure to make fans of Marvel and Ted Lasso go absolutely bananas.
So here it is: Roy Kent himself, Brett Goldstein, is officially joining the MCU.
Goldstein takes on the role of Greek hero Hercules, but we only get a glimpse of him in Thor: Love and Thunder's mid-credit scene. The scene mainly focuses on Russell Crowe's Zeus, who we discover did not actually die by Thor's hand in the battle of Omnipotence City. The King of the Gods survived — and now he wants payback. Too long have people forsaken their gods in favor of superheroes, he says. It's time for Thor to fall. And who better to take on the task of kicking Thor's butt than Zeus's uber-tough, uber-strong son Hercules?
Thor and Hercules have a history of showdowns in the Marvel comics, and it makes sense why. Both are extremely powerful mythological figures, as well as the sons of godly kings like Odin and Zeus. Who wouldn't want to watch these two duke it out in a future Marvel movie?
However, Hercules isn't just Thor's enemy in the comics. He's also a member of the Avengers. So while the MCU versions of Thor and Hercules may start out as adversaries, as implied by the mid-credits scene, there's a chance they could become allies at a later date. That, in turn, means that there's a chance Brett Goldstein could be sticking around the MCU for a bit.
Between this, Sesame Street, and Ted Lasso, one could say Goldstein is here. He's there. He's every-fucking-where. And that's pretty fucking great.
Thor: Love and Thunder is now in theaters.
