The 50-year-old revealed that he is excited to see Jenkins take the reins in the follow-up to 2011's Thor.
"I, along with a lot of other people, are very excited about the appointment of Patty Jenkins," Branagh told Moviefone. "I think that's a great choice to direct the movie."
He continued: "I know that Kevin Feige and all the people I worked very closely with, who were absolutely parts of the creation of that movie, are keen to produce a great second picture.
"So it was the right decision for me and for them and I am really looking forward to see how the second one develops."
Jenkins was confirmed as the film's director in October after Branagh elected not to helm the sequel.
Branagh will still be involved in a producing capacity.
