Marvel Studios’ upcoming Thor: Ragnarok<\/strong> is getting a new writer. Stephany Folsom is stepping to work upon a foundation already built by Thor: The Dark World<\/strong> screenwriters Christopher Yost and Craig Kyle.<\/p>\n

Folsom becomes the third female writer for the studios’ superhero franchises. Their 2014 hit Guardians Of The Galaxy<\/strong> had its initial drafts penned by Nicole Perlman before director James Gunn made a pass through the screenplay. Perlman, who developed her Guardians<\/strong> script while in the studio’s writers program, is now collaborating with Meg LeFauve on the studio’s planned 2018 female-centric superhero Captain Marvel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Folsom first gained notice when her script 1969: A Space Odyssey or How Kubrick Learned to Stop Worrying and Land on the Moon<\/strong>, a dramatization of the ridiculous conspiracy theory that NASA faked the moon landings with the help of film director Stanley Kubrick.<\/p>\n

This is not the only recent addition to the Thor: Ragnarok<\/strong> production. Marvel hired What We Do In The Shadows<\/strong> director Taika Waititi at the beginning of October<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Production on the film is expected to get underway next June and will feature Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner\/Hulk teaming up with Chris Hemsworth’s Thor. Thor: Ragnarok<\/strong> is slated for release on November 3, 2017.<\/p>\n
