Despite the delay, Portman has masterfully directed the upcoming film and stated how Chris Hemsworth assisted her throughout the process because she didn’t know how to use the hammer properly, “A lot of the time, and I would even venture to say most of the time, you’re working with nothing, which was really helpful to have Chris there, you know, and his experience with it kind of guiding me through how to look like you’re wielding it, even when you know, you’re really holding nothing.”
