He's done a lot more than just Marvel movies in his career.

While many recognize Taika Waititi is mostly known for his work in the MCU these days — directing Thor: Ragnarok and playing both Korg and Sutur — he’s been an incredibly prolific director and actor. He’s won an Academy Award, a BAFTA Award, and even a Grammy Award for his previous works. While his first acting role in Scarfies back in 1999 is basically forgotten, it’s currently his part in a vampire film that has fans buzzing.
