It also remains to be seen whether Grandmaster will be more or less annoying and frustrating than Thor in Darryl’s eyes.
Shortly before Thor: Ragnarok’s theatrical release, Jeff Goldblum revealed that he’d shot a short film involving “a roommate in Australia,” and while Goldblum didn’t say at the time where we should see this short, it makes perfect sense to attach it to Thor: Ragnarok’s home media release.
Evidently in this version of events, he was somehow able to escape Sakaar and make his way to Earth, and now he’s passing the time by taking in Australian culture.
Given how luxuriously Grandmaster lived for hundreds of thousands years on Sakaar, it will be an interesting change of pace to see him ordering takeout and shopping at nearby markets.
