Thor: Love and Thunder’s shocking post-credits scene cameo just leaked

One of the great things about Thor: Love and Thunder is that the plot, post-credits scenes, and cameo surprises did not leak in full months in advance of the premiere. Instead, spoiler fans only got these details in the past few days from people who attended the film’s red carpet premiere.

Since then, we saw Love and Thunder’s full plot leak, including the post-credits scenes. But even the plot leaks were very blunt, sticking to the main events of the movie. As for the post-credits scenes, we only got written descriptions, not actual video clips.

But now one of those post-credits has leaked online in video form, and we can confirm one of the biggest cameos in Thor: Love and Thunder. Of course, big spoilers will follow below. If you want to be surprised, you should avoid all Love and Thunder reports this week.

The post-credits scenes

Thor: Love and Thunder will have two post-credits scenes, the recent leaks said. And one of those reports even teased the surprise in these scenes. Let’s revisit them:

-First Post Credit Scene is the Hercules one. Zeus sends Hercules (presumably [Brett] Goldstein) to kill Thor (who is with Gorr’s daughter now). Hercules is wearing basically nothing, and has only one line. This scene is setting up a sequel of some sort.

-Second scene is Heimdall in a white and gray robe welcoming Jane to Valhalla.

Heimdall, played by Idris Elba in previous Thor and Avengers movies, stands out immediately. He died in Infinity War, so his reappearance signals the possibility of resurrection down the road.

But now that the Zeus scene has leaked, the Hercules detail is all the more interesting. That’s because we can finally see the actor playing Hercules, and it’s quite an exciting development.

Thor: Love and Thunder surprise cameo confirmed

Brett Goldstein is famous for his Roy Kent role in Apple TV’s critically acclaimed Ted Lasso show. Hopefully, the actor will bring the same intensity to the Hercules role in the MCU.

That’s because the first Thor: Love and Thunder post-credits scene leaked on social media, confirming this amazing cameo.

As detailed before, the post-credits scene is a dialogue between an injured Zeus and Hercules. Redditors have transcribed the exchange, and it goes like this:

Zeus: They beg you for mercy without ever knowing if you’re listening. Now, they look to the sky – they don’t ask us for lightning, they don’t ask us for rain. They just want to see one of their so called super heroes. When did we become the joke? No…no, they will fear us again when [inaudible] falls from the sky.

Do you understand me, Hercules? Do you understand me my son?

Hercules: [stands from kneeling position]: Yes, Father. [swings golden mace into his hand as he poses]

Goldstein is absent from view for most of the scene. The camera focuses on Russell Crowe’s mobster-like monologue before revealing the cameo surprise. It really feels like Zeus is a bad guy in this movie. But, thankfully, he did not die by the end of it, as we had suspected.

What’s important here is that Goldstein is playing Hercules in Thor: Love and Thunder, just as rumors suggested. And he might soon be going after Thor (Chris Hemsworth) in what would be an amazing Thor 5 movie.

Where to watch the leaked post-credits scene

With that in mind, we can’t wonder what Ted Lasso actor will cameo in MCU post-credits scenes next. We already had Cristo Fernandez, who plays Dany Rojas in the TV show, show up in the No Way Home post-credits. Maybe Nick Mohammed should be next. That way, he could be a proper villain.

That said, we won’t show you this Thor: Love and Thunder cameo. But you can find the post-credits scene on social media exactly where you expect to see it. But the videos are deleted quite fast.
