Thor: Ragnarok To Take Place… IN SPAAAAAACE!
The upcoming movie Thor: Ragnarok will take place almost entirely in outer space, according to statements made by Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige in an interview with ScreenRant. While most Marvel movies, take place on Earth, the upcoming Thor movie will take place "outside the nine realms" entirely, which coincidentally also describes how we feel when Chris Hemsworth appears in a scene without his shirt on.
"The upcoming movies will be as much up here, as they are on Earth, starting with not Spider-Man, starting with Thor: Ragnarok," Feige said when asked by ScreenRant during a set visit (how come we never get invited to these things? Oh yeah, its because we're jerks). "There are three scenes on Earth in Thor: Ragnarok. Everything else is Asgard, and not all of these worlds, but world that certainly, let's put it this way, in Thor lingo, it's beyond the nine realms. There are other planets that we spend a lot of time on in Thor: Ragnarok, that certainly people would say, 'oh, that's sort of like the Guardians world', but they're just other areas of the Marvel cosmos universe."
Of course, this isn't really news. It's been known for some time that Thor: Ragnarok would draw from the comic book storyline Planet Hulk, which you can guess by its name takes place on another planet. But ScreenRant, bless them, have found a way to make it news again, and who are we to argue with the tides of comics journalism?
So yeah, Thor: Ragnarok… IN SPAAAAACE! And also theaters on November 3.
