At the end of "Thor: Love and Thunder," there's a touching moment between the movie's leads, Natalie Portman and Chris Hemsworth, that nods to a classic early 2000s movie.

In the movie, Thor (Hemsworth) reconnects with his ex Jane Foster (Portman) once she becomes Mighty Thor to combat her terminal cancer. After battling with Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), Thor finally has to come to terms that Jane has to leave him once more — this time for good.

But before their tearful parting, Jane tells Thor that she's finally figured out a superhero catchphrase for herself. She leans in and whispers it. We never hear what she says.

In a recent interview with writer-director Taika Waititi, Insider asked what was said in that scene.

"It's like, does Bill Murray ever really say anything to Scarlett Johansson in 'Lost in Translation'?" Waititi responded, referencing the memorable scene in Sofia Coppola's 2003 movie.

In "Lost in Translation," Murray and Johansson's characters, Bob and Charlotte, respectively, form an unlikely bond in Tokyo. In the end, Bob whispers in Charlotte's ear before leaving her. The audience, however, never learns what he said.

"Even when we were shooting it we were like, 'Yeah, we're just taking this from 'Lost in Translation,'" Waititi said.

However, Waititi joked about what the comment could have been.

"I would like to think it's something like, 'Your ass is still mine,'" Waititi told Insider with a laugh. "Your ass will always be mine." Referring to how lovestruck Thor is towards Jane.

But even though Waititi doesn't know exactly what the actor uttered, Portman told CinemaBlend that she did tell Hemsworth something.

She's just not telling the rest of us.

"That scene was really, really fun to shoot, and yes, there is a specific line, but I will never reveal it," she said.

"Thor: Love and Thunder" is currently playing in theaters.
