New Poster for Thor: The Dark World


Nadine's out and about tonight, so emailed me this post to get all blogged up:

With the release date fast approaching (3 months for the UK now!), a new poster for Marvel's Thor: The Dark World has risen, with a new trailer due to drop on 7th August.

The new poster is full of characters, taking the usual 'epic' layout with Thor looking heroic in the middle, while Malekith The Accursed (Christopher Eccleston) looks menacing in the background. As well as the hero and villain, Loki (who we're not quite sure will be turning good or remaining evil, played by Tom Hiddleston), Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) and the rest of Thor's pals round out the poster.

Watch: Teaser Trailer for Thor: The Dark World



Just ahead of the release of their Shane Black-directed Iron Man threequel (3rd May in the US, this Thursday in the UK), Disney and Marvel have rolled out the teaser trailer for the second film in Phase 2 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thor: The Dark World.

The teaser - which is the latest in the line of big-budget sci-fi flicks that seem to enjoy destroying London - comes via iTunes Movie Trailers, and is embedded above via YouTube. Much as Iron Man 3 seems a lot darker than its predecessors, so too does Thor 2 look a bit more adult - I'm certainly getting a Lord of the Rings vibe from it. That said, it does look freaking great - visually, thematically, it just works.

Thor: The Dark World is directed by Games of Thrones' Alan Taylor, and smashes its way into US cinemas on 8th November, while it hits the UK a week earlier on 30th October.

I'm posting about this right now, but I won't be doing in the near future; A113Animation has a vacancy for a live-action Disney writer, covering, amongst other things, Disney's Marvel releases. If you're interested in the position, see here for details.
