THOR: RAGNAROK Director Shares A New Look At Anthony Hopkins' "Hobo" Odin
Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi has taken to social media to share a new look at Anthony Hopkins as the exiled Odin who the God of Thunder and Loki will be attempting to track down in the movie.
Thor: Ragnarok is going to take us to a lot of unexpected places but perhaps the most intriguing is Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum. It's there that the God of Thunder will be looking for help in tracking down his father after he was banished to Earth by Loki (rather than killed as many of us suspected). Since then, the God of Mischief has been sitting on the throne in control of Asgard.
Set photos confirmed that the Odin Thor and Loki find isn't the same one we're used to seeing and now director Taika Waititi has shared a fresh look at the ancient Asgardian looking like, well, a Hobo!
That's because he's been living rough and trying to warn those of us on Midgard about Ragnarok. Many fans believe that the threequel will see Odin killed off so Thor can become King of Asgard but that's just speculation for now. What do you guys think of this new behind the scene photo? Sound off below!
