While the biggest buzz to come out of San Diego Comic-Con was Zack Snyder’s announcement of his Superman vs. Batman flick, as well as the title reveal for the next Avengers film (The Avengers: Age of Ultron), Thor: The Dark World somehow seems to still slip under the radar for some reason, even though it’s the next big Marvel film to be released this year that ties directly into The Avengers (Marvel’s biggest hit) with the return of Thor and his adopted evil brother, Loki. People are interested, and some great footage was apparently screened at Comic-Con, but it seems other comic-related films are getting more buzz these days (although Loki actor Tom Hiddleston did make quite an entrance in Hall H).
Well, the second trailer for Thor: The Dark World has landed online, with enough Thor and plenty of Loki to go around to hopefully remind people just how cool these characters are and that this sequel is what comic book fans should be focusing on right now. Judging purely from the looks of it, this film may be the Thor film that some fans wanted with the first, with much more action this time around, and it really seems to be going for a much darker tone than both the first Thor film and The Avengers. Hit the jump to watch!
Official Synopsis:
Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel’s Thor and Marvel’s The Avengers, Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.
Thor: The Dark World, directed by Alan Taylor, stars Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins, Stellan Skarsgård, Kat Dennings, and Rene Russo. The film hits theaters nationwide November 8th!
