Thor: Ragnarok Gets A Colorful New Poster
Thor: Ragnarok didn't just get a new trailer at San Diego Comic-Con. The film also got a gorgeous new poster, featuring Thor (Chris Hemsworth), the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Hela (Cate Blanchett), Loki (Tom Hiddleston), and Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) front and center.
Thor: Ragnarok will begin with Thor finding out that his brother Loki is pretending to be their missing father Odin (Anthony Hopkins), something which has led to lax rule on Asgard. This chaos has deadly consequences when the villainous goddess of death Hela is released from her cage, destroying Thor's hammer and sending him off the desolate planet of Sakaar.
There, he is captured by Valkyrie, who brings him to the Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum), a nefarious ruler who forces him into gladiatorial contests against his former "friend from work" Hulk. Eventually, Thor, Hulk, Loki, and Valkyrie team up to take on Hela, recruiting a little help along the way from Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) in one of the film's few stops on earth.
Like the past posters released for the film, the poster is colorful, bright, and a ton of fun, teasing a different Thor movie than what we have seen in the past. This is fitting with comments from director Taika Waititi, who has said that he wants Ragnarok to "dismantle and destroy" the old elements of the franchise so that they can rebuild from the ground up.
Thor: Ragnarok, which is based on a script from Eric Pearson, will hit theaters on Nov. 3. While we wait, see why the film will blow you away.
