First Look: Thor: Ragnarok

Thor: Ragnarok

Guess what . . .the trailer for the latest movie of the Norse god, Thor: Ragnarok, was released a couple of days ago, and it was rather interesting.

Thor: Ragnarok

The trailer shows a first look of the first female primary villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Hela (Cate Blanchett).

Hela is the goddess of death who was imprisoned before being accidentally let loose after Loki (Tom Hiddleston) became the new ruler of Asgard.

She was furious about being held captive for a millennia and defeats Thor while destroying Mjolnir in the process.

Thor ends up on the planet Sakaar and forced to combat as a gladiator in an arena operated by the Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum).

In addition, Thor: Ragnarok also sees the return of Heimdall (Idris Alba) and Odin (Anthony Hopkins).

The other new characters to enter the MCU include Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) and Skurge (Karl Urban).

The Hulk also makes a surprise appearance on Thor: Ragnarok as a gladiator who goes up against the god of thunder in the main event.

The trailer itself takes its inspiration from the Guardians of the Galaxy and adds a little bit of fun. It also plays the "Immigrant Song" of Led Zeppelin, reminiscent of the "Hooked on a Feeling" of Blue Suede of the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie.

Adding some goofiness on the trailer may make it less serious compared to the trailers of the previous Thor movies.
