Blockbuster movie season begins tomorrow with the latest release Marvel Studios – THOR! The powerful but arrogant warrior Thor is cast out of the fantastic realm of Asgard and sent to live amongst humans on Earth, where he soon becomes one of their finest defenders. It’s one of my favorite stories in the Marvel Universe and I look forward to seeing how they treat his origin as well as how they weave in the Avengers supergroup angle! Don’t forget to keep your eyes open for Easter Eggs (like the one below) as well as the post-credit clip that leads into the next Marvel film… don’t worry. I won’t spoil it for you!
“LAND OF ENCHANTMENT….JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY”. Thor made his first MARVEL appearance in 1962 in issue #83 of Journey Into Mystery
Marvel Studios expands its film universe with a new type of superhero: THOR. This epic adventure spans the Marvel Universe; from present day Earth to the realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is The Mighty Thor, a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans as punishment. Once here, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth. Kenneth Branagh directs this fantasy epic which stars Australian actor Chris Hemsworth as the ancient Norse god, Tom Hiddleston as his evil brother Loki, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, a young woman who befriends Thor on Earth, and Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Thor’s father and king of Asgard. Expect to see agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., previously seen in ”Iron Man” to make an appearance, further forshadowing the coming of The Avengers!
THOR thunders into theaters on May 6th, 2011. Visit thor.marvel.com for more details!
