First Look At Thor, Hela, And Valkyrie In THOR: RAGNAROK Revealed On Entertainment Weekly Cover
Chris Hemsworth's Thor has a startling new look - along with awesome new weapons - & the first pics of Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) & Hela (Cate Blanchett) in Thor: Ragnarok have been revealed.
We knew Thor would be getting a new look in Thor: Ragnarok, but man, that leaked promo art really didn't do him justice! As you can see below, the God of Thunder's golden locks have vanished and he's now wielding two massive swords instead of Mjolnir. His armour also looks drastically different, thought that makes sense considering the fact he's going to be entering a gladiatorial arena.
"It was nice not to have to sit in the makeup chair for that hour each morning," Chris Hemsworth tells Entertainment Weekly of ditching the hero's long hair. "It felt like a rebirth for me as the actor but also as the character." That's a point reiterated by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige when he added: "I have a belief that if you’re lucky enough to get to part 3 of a franchise, it is your obligation not to fall to threequel-itis." Stay tuned to CBM for much more on Thor: Ragnarok a little later today.
