Men in Black spin-off set photos show off Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson
Here come the new Men in Black. Just to clarify, technically it’s one man in black, one woman in black. It’s Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson, the stars of the upcoming spin-off film who revealed themselves in character through new set photos on the celebs’ social media.
Anyone keeping tabs with the paparazzi have likely already seen shots of this duo filming on location in London, but here are some approved selfies from the production.
Hemsworth and Thompson already have on-screen chemistry from their days in the Revengers (i.e. playing Thor and Valkyrie in Thor: Ragnarok). With Men in Black, the pair are under the helm of filmmaker F. Gary Gray (The Fate of the Furious), who directs the spin-off from a script by Iron Man’s Matt Holloway and Art Marcum.
It seems safe to say they’re having a good time.
