Speaking to ScreenRant at the Thor: The Dark World press junket, actor Chris Hemsworth shared the following thoughts about a third solo outing for Thor Odinson. “I think what’s good about this is that each time, with the Avengers, we sort of made it difficult to separate them each time there’s some sort of conflict it’s like where’s the rest of the team? And I liked that Thor has another universe or the universe to sort of take care of and keep him occupied. I think that in the comic book the sort of end of days, Armageddon aspect is probably the direction in which it will all head in. Where it’s sort of the end of all things and there’s obviously no script or anything when I read the comic books I thought it was an interesting way to go.”
For those of you who read Marvel Comics and the Thor series in particular, you're familiar with Marvel's Armageddon/Ragnarok centering around Surtur and the drawing of the Twilight Sword. But when specifically asked about the Fire Demon residents of Muspelheim, Hemsworth simply stated, "Yeah (laughs) bring them all in.”
