More exciting Marvel movie news here, this time relating to the God of Thunder's third MCU outing, Thor: Ragnarok.

While we've known that Miek would feature in the movie for a while now, it's just been confirmed that another member of The Hulk's Warbound, Korg, will also make an appearance - and he's going to be played by none other than Thor: Ragnarok director, Taika Waititi.

Apparently, Waititi dropped by the studio's "Open House" tour himself to break the news, revealing that he'll be bringing the Kronan warrior to life via motion-capture. “Being so big he’s a slugger, he’s not very graceful. He sort of hits hard,” Watiti said of his take on the character.

Some concept art and footage of Korg in action opposite Chris Hemsworth's Thor was also shown, but details are a little more vague.

Tell us, are you happy to finally have confirmation that Korg will be a part of Thor: Ragnarok? Sound off in the usual place.

@AngryBillCipher -

It's because another studio has the rights to the next solo Hulk film, so this is their way to get around it.
