As Marvel’s much awaited, ‘Thor: The Dark World’ releases this Friday, we list down things to watch out for in this upcoming comic book flick:
New super-villains:
Thor, the son of Asgard, fought his evil stepbrother – Loki in the previous two films (Thor, The Avengers) and will be meeting
1. Malekith the Accursed (played by Christopher Eccleston)
One of the fiercest enemies of Thor. He is the ruler of the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim and possesses superhuman intellect, strength, speed, stamina, durability, agility and reflexes.
2. Algrim/Kurse (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) also makes an appearance in the movie. Kurse is Malekith’s loyal lieutenant who is transformed into a monstrous creature in order to destroy Thor.
Thor’s hammer – Mjolnir
Thor’s main weapon is his Hammer – Mjolnir. With the help of Mjolnir, Thor can defeat any evil power that comes his way.
Did you know: During the filming of the movie, 30 hammers were made for Thor of various weights for different uses. Of the 30, five versions were used most often, including the ‘lit hammer,’ that emits light when lightning strikes.
Marvel’s surprise:
After every Marvel movie, you will patiently wait for the post-credits scene too find out what’s in store next. They won’t let you down in this one too! Just wait for it!
An Avenger cameo:
We all know Thor is part of the super team called as The Avengers. Thor: The Dark World sees an non-credited cameo by an Avenger who all the women rave about. (Keep guessing!)
