Marvel has released details on Thor: Ragnarok and it rundowns what fans can expect from the next big Asgardian adventure. When we last saw the God of Thunder, he was flying off to figure out who was manipulating the Avengers at the end of Age of Ultron.
Eventually, he hears rumblings of trouble in Asgard: His evil brother, Loki (Tom Hiddleston), has been impersonating their missing father, Odin (Anthony Hopkins).
Loki’s rather lax governing leads to the re-emergence of an imprisoned Hela (Cate Blanchett). Thor’s initial encounter with Hela gets him blasted to Sakaar, a barbaric planet ruled by the charming but nefarious Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum). Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), a tough, hard-drinking warrior hiding out on Sakaar brings the god to the Grandmaster.
On Sakaar, Thor also comes into contact with the Hulk, who has become the planet’s most popular and successful gladiator.
