An Oscar -winning director candidate for Masked Singer!

But what came to do the director of Thor: Ragnarok and Jojo Rabbit in the American TV show?

The jury of The Masked Singer Season 13 still can’t believe it.

During the semi-finals broadcast last night on American TV, a certain “Lucky Duck” put a hell of a bazaar on stage … before creating the surprise by removing his mask himself. And there, total stupor: under the duck suit was hidden Taika WaititiOscar -winning director of Jojo Rabbitcrazy brain behind What we do in the shadows and craftsman of one of Thor The most pop of the Marvel universe.

No extension suspense or conventional elimination: faithful to his humor clip-in-cheeky, the New Zealand filmmaker decided that he was tired of playing hide and off on his own, launching the jury a small tackle full of second degree. After having chambered the panelists throughout the season, he made them understand that they were not worthy to unravel his identity …

On the side of the judges, it is the explosion of joy and surprise, in particular for Rita Ora… “That’s so cool! “she exclaimed

And for good reason: the pop singer is not the wife of Taika Waititiwhich also explains that a filmmaker as renowned – supposed to work on a film Star Wars – Allows you to make an appearance in this kind of TV show.

Remember that Taika Waititi filmed last year Klara and the Sunan SF ode carried by Jenna Ortegawhich will be released 2025 in the cinema (no date yet).
