Thor: Ragnarok
Just out of doors of Brisbane , Australia , Thor : Ragnarokhas wrapped shoot , so says director Taika Waititi . In abehind the scenes video , he lease fans on a tour of part of the exercise set that include actor in costume , weapons , and what an industrial debris yard near a lake that he referred to as"sci - fi space wasteland . “Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson also makes appearance in the picture , but act as Waititi ’s amusing sculptural relief instead of uncover any information about the motion-picture show itself .
InThor : Ragnarok , we sleep together thatHulk and Thor will have their dayin the arena . In an arc that is expected to total full circle , Thor is stripped of his power and broadcast away by ( presumably ) new villain Hela ( Cate Blanchett ) , before he again gain the right field to wield Mjölnir . IfThor : Ragnaroktruly takes its lead from thePlanet Hulkstory line , is this Marvel ’s path of circumventing the fact that Universal still owns the rights to the standaloneHulkfranchise ? Fans have enjoy the the difficult yet humourous kinship between Thor and Hulk in their contact throughoutThe Avengers , and it looks like another supporter of the Hulk is making his way to the big screen .
A throw away prison term nearly 11 minutes into theFacebook alive videointroduces an actor named Steve who is play a theatrical role Waitit refers to as Miek . It ’s unnamed whether the reveal was intentional or not , but Michael Bay made a similar ( inadvertent ? ) non - proclamation in hisFacebook Live videoof the last day of shoot forTransformers : The Last Knight . The Miek we see in the video is wildly different from the theatrical role fans of thePlanet Hulkcomic are conversant with – for starters , Waititi ’s Miek is human .
Rumors of whether or notThor : Ragnarokwould be following thePlanet Hulkstory linehave been tossed aroundsince the film itself was denote . In the comics , Hulk ’s absence from Marvel’sCivil Warwas due to his ( forced ) deportation by the Illuminati . After being sent aside , he found himself on the planet Sakaar where he and Miek become allies as they continue to struggle in gladiator style battles for Sakaar ’s ruler , The Red King .
Miek is an insectoid , aboriginal to planet Sakaar , whose hive and family was destroy by a local army . In the backwash , he was captured and enslaved to do battle at The Red King ’s behest . Eventually Hulk , Miek , and the rest of the Warbound escape Sakaar and head to Earth so as to help Hulk take down the people who sent him away .
But how will Thor fit in with Miek , the Warbound , and Hulk to ( hopefully ) escape the gladiator human race ? Is Miek being human just a nod to the strip rather of in reality being the character devotee are familiar with ? We ’ll have to wait and see .
