Deadline New York is reporting that Patty Jenkins has left Thor 2 due that old Hollywood chestnut, “creative differences.” Marvel is searching for a replacement even as we speak.
Known only for directing only one feature, 2003’s Monster, and a number of high profile TV series, Jenkins was considered bit of a surprise when hired. However, when you think about it, that is pretty much Joss Whedon’s resume too, although he has more writing credits to his name and his TV series’ have spawn a number of different loyal fanbases.
Regardless, it would have been interesting to see how a woman’s perspective would look on the God of Thunder.
