Paramount Pictures and Marvel Entertainment present the epic adventure, "Thor," which spans the Marvel Universe from present day Earth to the realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is the mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth), a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth by his father Odin (Anthony Hopkins) and is forced to live among humans. A beautiful, young scientist, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), has a profound effect on Thor, as she ultimately becomes his first love. It’s while here on Earth that Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth.




"I've been so brainwashed by Marvel into never saying anything, or trying to obfuscate when it comes to the details of the plot, I almost don't believe it myself," Branagh joked when quizzed about the recent official announcement that Loki would be back in The Avengers.

"I will be fascinated to see how the character develops, because he leaves our film in a very interesting way, I think."

"He's done an absolutely sensational job," the directed added when asked about the version of the script he's seen for the superhero team-up. "It's no mean feat, so I'm awash with admiration for what he's done."

And having met with Captain America: The First Avenger helmer Joe Johnston to review the 3D sequences for their respective movies, he also revealed exactly what he thinks about the upcoming WWII movie: "I've seen a few [scenes]. It looked absolutely fantastic."

Thor is out now, Captain America: The First Avenger is set to be released on July 22 later this year and The Avengers will finally assemble on the big screen on May 4, 2012!
