In an interview with Total Film(out in February), actor Christopher Eccleston briefly touches on his role as Malekith in Thor: The Dark World. In the interview, Malekith is described as a 'bad guy with no redeeming qualities'. Interesting, but the real attention grabber is the fact that Malekith apparently 'plans to take over the universe-egged on by Tom Hiddleston's mischievous Loki'. The actor goes on to state that good scripts are paramount in his selection process for movie roles so that should bode well for Alan Taylor and co. Lots of questions raised here, for instance, is this something the God of Mischief set up during his time away from Asgard? Or is this something that developed post-Avengers? Be sure to share your theories in the comment section below.
