Sam Neill looks to be reuniting with Hunt for the Wilderpeople director Taika Waititi in his upcoming Thor: Ragnarok.

In an interview promoting the UK release of Wilderpeople, Neill let news of his involvement in the Marvel film slip.

"I'm not really allowed to say this and I can't tell you what it is... I did a couple of days on Thor [Ragnarok] just before I came over here," Neill told Shortlist.

"If I say anything else, Marvel's secret agents - and they are lethal - will come and get me and probably my children, as well."

However, Neill is now being coy about whether or not we'll actually see him in the film.

It would also make for a mini-Jurassic Park reunion, as the beloved Kiwi actor would be featured alongside Jeff Goldblum. The pair played Dr Alan Grant and Dr Ian Malcom in Steven Spielberg's hit film.

Also starring in Ragnarok is Chris Hemsworth in the lead, Tom Hiddleston, Mark Ruffalo, Cate Blanchett, Idris Elba, Anthony Hopkins, Tessa Thompson and fellow Kiwi Karl Urban.

It's being filmed in Australia for a November 2017 release.
