Thor: Ragnarok began filming July 4, 2016 in Australia. The film is a sequel to 2013’s Thor: The Dark World and 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. Thor: Ragnarok stars Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Mark Ruffalo as Dr. Bruce Banner/The Incredible Hulk.
Both of their characters were absent from Captain America: Civil War and the film will presumably take place simultaneously with the events of the Civil War.
Marvel has yet to release plot details, but the film’s title suggests that Thor will face off against Ragnarok. Ragnarok is a villainous cyborg clone of Thor who appears in the Marvel comic’s Civil War. Ragnarok is also the name of an apocalyptic event in Norse mythology, so Thor could also be fighting to save Asgard from certain destruction. Or possibly both.
Tom Hiddleston is back as Thor’s younger brother Loki, god of mischief and the villain of 2012’s The Avengers.
Thor: Ragnarok also stars Idris Elba, Anthony Hopkins, Cate Blanchett, Tessa Thompson, Jeff Goldblum and Karl Urban.
The film hits theaters November 3, 2017.
