Marvel Debuts The First Trailer For Alan Taylor’s ‘Thor: The Dark World’

by Shawn Madden

Marvel Studios “Phase Two” officially kicks off this week when Shane Black’s Iron Man 3 opens in theaters internationally and the studio has debuted the first trailer for their next film in the slate, Alan Taylor’s highly-anticipated Thor: The Dark World. The film picks up roughly a year after The Avengers and sees Thor deal with an ancient enemy who has returned.

Marvel Studios’ “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.

Have The Villains For ‘Thor: The Dark World’ Been Revealed?

by Shawn Madden

Now while none of this has been confirmed we have news that Thor may be going head to head wituh dark elves in his upcoming sequel. During a recent interview James Grogan revealed that stuntmen working on the next film are training to be elves.

“The other day for example, this is quite random but I was working on Thor 2,” he explains, “I had a load of stunt guys in and the director came in and he said ‘Look, we want you all to be elves,’ and I was like ‘What the hell is an elf anyway?’ and he said ‘I want you all to walk around like these supernatural animals,’ honestly it was the most ridiculous thing ever but you just have to not be self aware and get on with it.”

Now while this isn’t confirmation that these are the villains with a title such as The Dark World it could be entirely likely. And if so that means we would be seeing Thor go head to head with Malekith The Accursed who rules over The Dark Elves. But as stated above this has not been confirmed yet. Keep checking back for updates.
