First trailer for Thor: The Dark World

This is the UK trailer, but it is the same as the US trailer.

I am a bit confused by this, to be honest. It looks really... CGI filled. Like, unnecessarily. I am excited and it's not like I'm going to skip it, but it is a lot different looking than I expected. I also am keeping in mind that it is a teaser, though. I'm sure the full trailer will be a bit different.

New images from Thor: The Dark World

We have yet another image of the Asgard version of Jane Foster along with a couple more of Thor. I am still very excited for this.

Adewale Akinnuoye cast in Thor 2

Adewale Akinnuoye (Lost) has landed a villain role for the upcoming Marvel film Thor: The Dark World. He will be playing a duel role of Algrim who later morphs into Kurse.

The basic line for these characters is Malekith the Accursed gets Algrim to fight Thor but he is later injured and betrayed by Malekith. Algrim heals and morphs into Kurse who is said to be stronger than Thor.

Christopher Eccleston cast in Thor: The Dark World

It has been revealed that Christopher Eccleston will be replacing Mads Mikkelson for the role of Malekith the Accursed in Thor: The Dark World, the upcoming sequel to the 2011 Marvel film Thor.

You might recognize Eccleston from Gone in 60 Seconds, Dr. Who, and 28 Days Later. He usually plays villains, to my understanding, and is British. That's about all I know about the guy. I was happy with Mikkelson but he had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts. So yeah...

Thor: The Dark World is scheduled to hit theaters November 8, 2013 with Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, and Tom Hiddleston all reprising their respective roles.
