A little while ago, Taika Waititi shocked us all when he claimed that Thor: Ragnarok would run for only around 90 - 100 minutes. That would have made it the shortest Marvel Cinematic Universe movie to date and left fans worried that this would be far from an epic adventure. Well, the British Board of Film Classification has revealed the actual running time ahead of its October 24th release and it's long!
In reality, Thor: Ragnarok is actually going to run for 130 minutes and 21 seconds, a lengthy amount of time which ensures the God of Thunder's will have plenty of time to shine when he returns to theaters.
Thor was one hour and 55 minutes and Thor: The Dark World was one hour and 52 minutes so this is the longest instalment of the franchise to date. It will now be interesting seeing how Avengers: Infinity War compares, especially when that's going to be the biggest Marvel movie to date in terms of scale and characters. With the release of Thor: Ragnarok getting closer, be sure to stay tuned for more.
