Taika Waititi has been embroiled in a series of controversies. From the threesome with Tessa Thompson and Rita Ora to the disappointing reception of Thor 4, there’s too much going on with the director. his latest adventure love and thunder turned out to be one of the MCU’s most disappointing projects. Now, some masses believe the director has developed a massive ego that is causing his downfall.
Following receipt of Thor: Love and Thunder, many MCU associates have come forward to defend Taika Waititi. But it’s obvious from everyone’s reaction to it that few people are happy with the JoJo Rabbit director and I don’t even have much hope for him.
Does Taika Waititi have an ego problem?
Taika Waititi can be helmed as the main lead that has made Thor one of the most fan-favorite characters of recent times. Thor: Ragnarok presented the character of Chris Hemsworth in a new light, and the director was praised for presenting the character in an all-new avatar. But now, many fans believe recent events have impacted him and made him more selfish than ever.
Fans also pointed to an interview with Vanity Fair where Waititi was spotted with Valkyrie actress Tessa Thompson. In the interview, as Thompson did her job diligently, Taika Waititi only seemed to be having fun and flirting with her instead of providing any real details about the film. Fans were quick to connect this bizarre relationship between him and Tessa Thompson to the infamous three-way kiss between him, Thompson, and his partner Rita Ora.

They concluded that the director was influenced by the series of blockbusters he provided and all the praise he received from fans.

With all the controversy hanging over Waititi’s head, there’s no denying that fans are definitely not happy with him. Many fans are worried about his next Star Wars project. On the other hand, the reactions also speak out loud that fans don’t feel the need for him in the MCU after the last movie turned out to be so disappointing.
A user wrote:
“You see the inflated ego in Love and Thunder when you hear more Korg and Taika jokes than Thor. He also cut Gorr down, I guess because he knew Gorr would steal the show….
Another user expressed tension over how the director can ruin the next Star Wars movie:
“Man, yeah, Taika is out of his league, and so honestly worried about the terrible quality of a Star Wars movie he’s going to make”
Fans even admitted that Taika Waititi had gone off limits:
“As a fellow Kiwi, he has an ego problem. Kiwi culture is very pleasant and not serious, but that’s something else.
The reception regarding Waititi is currently not at all good among the fans. It is not sure that he will return soon to direct a project in the MCU. But we can still hope that the director comes back with a well-crafted project and makes a big comeback.
Thor: Ragnarok as well as Thor: Love and Thunder can be streamed on Disney+
