Thor: Ragnarok
Perrikus would have been another villain that the God of Thunder was supposed to fight off inThor : Ragnarok , director Taika Waititi share . day before North America pose to experience the unexampled Marvel motion-picture show , the Chris Hemsworth - led labor is alreadya fiscal and decisive successin all the other territories where the movie has already been free . The moving-picture show is heralded for its great balance of wittiness and action as Odinson goes on a journey of self - uncovering before he in reality steps into the glare as the ruler of Asgard .
The movie , while very comedic and full of levity , also highlight Thor ’s struggle to save Asgard and his people . He has to go through multiple trial brought about by multiple nemeses , such as Surtur andRagnarok ’s main antagonist , Hela . Waititi reveals , however , that there was another unnerving foeman that he was view to begin with for the motion-picture show – Perrikus .
During the promotional round forRagnarok , Waititi , Tom Hiddleston , and Tessa Thompson played a fun game withIGNwhere the three had to guess whether the word given to them is a name of an IKEA furniture or a Thor villain . While the two actor had some word when Perrikus came up , the director was very confident in his response regarding it being an Odinson foeman , belatedly explain that he was actually in the track to be one of the antagonists in the threequel . Check out the complete clip above .
Created by Dan Jurgens and John Romita Jr. in their relaunch of Thor from the late ' 90s , Perrikus has a long - stand abomination to Asgard and its people after one sentinel , Lonkar , pop his married woman during scrap . Dubbed as the God of Unlimited Power and Infinite Energy , he was by chance freed by Thor and enchant Odin to seek revenge for all he has lose .
Perrikus ' motif and great power have some similarities with Hela - he can smash Mjolnir like the Goddess of Death in the movie and has superhuman metier that match that of Thor . to boot , the two of them were incidentally released from prison by Odin ’s children . It might be coolheaded to see him come in to life on the big cover , especially when his esthetical alone fits the Jack Kirby - look that Waititi desire forRagnarok , but his creation will not offer up something significantly unexampled leave that Hela basically covers all the master bases . In the conclusion , it was good to keep him on the back burner for now until there ’s another chance for him to wreak havoc in the Marvel Cinematic Universe .
With Waititi stillinterested in moving forward with the MCUvia anotherThormovie , fans seeing Perrikus come to life on the big screen is not entirely out the picture . The question now is if a 4th standalone movie for the God of Thunder is in the circuit card for Marvel Studios give thatThor : Ragnarokis knight theend of a trilogy . The celluloid company does not seem to have any interest in making more standalones past a third film as presume in Iron Man ’s and Captain America ’s own sub - franchises .
