Even the best of us slip up at times becoming party to something that we didn't see coming. This is exactly what happened to Tessa Thompson, as the 'Men in Black: International' star accidentally became responsible for the leak of an image from the sets of 'Thor: Love and Thunder.' 

But before we get to it, it must be noted that Thompson isn't the only one working with Marvel who has slipped this way. In recent times Billal Fallah, one of the directors for 'Ms. Marvel,' shared images on Instagram that revealed new looks of Kamala's costume. Mark Ruffalo had once, by accident, live-streamed from the premiere of 'Thor: Ragnarok' and need we remind you of Tom Holland, who is notoriously famous for blurting out details about the MCU. So, how did the 'Thor: Love and Thunder' image get leaked and what was Tessa Thompson's response to it? Read on to find out!

A couple of months ago, an image of Thompson in a never-before-seen attire as Valkyrie surfaced on the Internet. While fans were blown away by the look, it was NOT supposed to be revealed at that point.  "I sent a picture to my stepmom and she posted it on Instagram. Yeah, it wasn't me and it's a big thing," Thompson said. Addressing the issue during an interview with Fandango, Thompson apologized to those involved in the project saying, "I'm so sorry, Marvel. I'm so sorry, Disney." "I'm never gonna send selfies again," Thompson added. 

For those unaware, here's the official synopsis of the upcoming film directed by Taika Waititi: "The film finds Thor (Chris Hemsworth) on a journey unlike anything he's ever faced – a quest for inner peace. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who – to Thor's surprise – inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher's vengeance and stop him before it's too late. "

Marvel fans and those of the actress don't seem to be offended one bit. One fan shared: "Revealing a costume is still nowhere near as bad as spoiling cameos/plotlines or the first 15 minutes of the film." Another wrote, "Marvel needs to RELAX."
