It's all happening, people! As the release date for the third Thor movie, Thor: Ragnarok, gets closer and closer, we can't help but get excited about all the new trailers and exciting stills of the god of thunder and his evil brother, Loki. Here's everything we know about the sequel, and if you already know all of this, perhaps we can teach you a few things about the Avengers: Infinity War movies!
The Cast
Of course, Chris Hemsworth will reprise his role as Thor, the mythical Norse god. Cate Blanchett is playing the main villain Hela. Also confirmed: Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Jaimie Alexander as Lady Sif, Idris Elba as Heimdall, Karl Urban as Skurge, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, and Jeff Goldblum as Grandmaster.
The Director
Taika Waititi, who wrote, directed, and starred in the 2014 vampire comedy What We Do in the Shadows, is set to direct.
The Hulk's Appearance
Mark Ruffalo is set to appear as Bruce Banner/The Hulk in the new film. In fact, the scientist and his big, green alter ego might even get a chance to meet.
The Plot
Marvel President Kevin Feige confirmed that the word Ragnarok means "essentially the end of all things," which isn't a great forecast. After being held captive on the planet Sakaar without his hammer, Thor must race against time to return to Asgard before the evil Hela puts an end to the Asgardian civilization.
