The Warriors Three weren't treated at all well in Thor: Ragnarok and all but Hogun was killed off in a matter of seconds. In the case of Zachary Levi, he was only given the opportunity to start running at Hela before she effortlessly dispatched both Fandral and Volstagg with some throwing knives. While Levi is now set to take on a far more significant role in the DC Films Universe with the lead role in Shazam, many fans were still upset to see him given such a minor and forgettable part in the movie.
In the video below, Levi attempted to explain what happened to poor old Fandral. "For those of you who have watched the movie, you see that Cate Blanchett comes out and she very just willy-nilly throws some knives of demonic purpose, I don’t know, they’re evil knives impaling both me and Volstagg, killing us instantly," he said, recapping the events of Thor: Ragnarok for fans. "The end."
Fandral didn't get so much as a single line of dialogue in the Taika Waititi helmed release but it turns out that wasn't always the case. "What is on the cutting room floor is me charging at Hela and getting impaled and going ‘For Asgard.' No s#!t, I had my last line, my last words in the Marvel Universe were ‘For Asgard.’ Cutting room floor." Levi is clearly disappointed but hey, at least he'll be Shazam!
Despite that, The Warriors Three definitely deserved better and Marvel may now regret not making a star out of Levi. What do you guys think? As always, weigh in with your thoughts in the usual place.
