Thor: The Dark World Reveals Two Images Ahead Of Tomorrow's TrailerSure, Iron Man 3 opens in just a few days internationally, and only a week after that in the United States.

Marvel Superheroes Recast Via Celebrity Cyber Casting CouchWhat if iconic superhero roles were recast according to fan whimsy? We’d end up with Arnold Schwarzenegger as Colossus, the steely X-Man. We’d see Rutger Hauer replacing Chris Hemsworth as Thor. And we’d see the late Bruce Lee as Spider-Man. Amazing. ...by Sean O'Connell | published: 2013-01-03 06:48:58comments
Deleted Thor Scene Shows Natalie Portman Sending Asgard A SignalAt the end of Thor, our favorite Asgardian (Chris Hemsworth) was left wondering about Jane (Natalie Portman), whom he couldn’t visit because the rainbow bridge that allowed him to travel between worlds had been decimated. Jane, herself, allegedly tried to contact Thor from Earth, as is laid out on this suddenly unburied clip from 2011. ...by Sean O'Connell | published: 2012-11-21 10:34:12comments
Chris Hemsworth Promises Relationship Troubles And A Game Of Thrones Vibe For Thor 2The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been so successful that it's hard to imagine any of the movies being risky, but as we enter what the studio is calling "Phase Two," there will be some changes afoot.

Chris Evans Wants A Captain America Cameo In Thor 2The logistics that Marvel would have to work out is Steve Rogers’ existence on Earth, while the rest of Thor appears to be taking place in Asgard (and other worlds). Then again, Natalie Portman’s set to reprise her role as Jane Foster (after sitting out The Avengers), so the story will have to swing by our planet for some short amount of time....by Sean O'Connell | published: 2012-09-18 10:42:08comments
Kat Dennings Gets Expanded Role For Thor: The Dark WorldBefore she was headlining her own hit CBS sitcom, Kat Dennings was taking a lot of audiences by surprise in a small but crucial role in Thor. Her character Darcy didn't really serve a purpose in the main, intergalactic narratives, but she got all the good jokes, talking about Thor's cut physique and oddball behavior all while her friend and boss Jane (Natalie Portman) was too smitten to say anything...by Katey Rich | published: 2012-08-22 08:05:50comments
Thor Sequel Title Might Be Explained By Villainous ElvesThe Thor sequel also got a title, but it was much odder-- Thor: The Dark World.

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One Box Set Brings Home The TesseractYep, that's a rather badass replica of Nick Fury's briefcase from The Avengers, complete with a light-up version of the Tesseract/Cosmic Cube.

Zachary Levi Growing Out Facial Hair For Thor 2 RoleThe Tangled star appeared on The Tonight Show last night, and when asked why he was growing out some sweet facial hair, he finally confirmed he’s officially accepted the Frandral role. Under other circumstances, he could have been forced to downplay the re-casting out of respect for Dallas, but since being part of a hit show is hardly a sad reason to be passed over, Levi was able to euphorically announce the news. ...by Mack Rawden | published: 2012-07-11 11:53:20comments

Why There's A Slight Chance You Won't Like The AvengersWhedon didn’t make this film for non-fans, and it doesn’t hold your hand at any point on the ride. We start pretty much where Captain America: The First Avenger left off, referencing key points from the end of Thor and Iron Man 2 because Whedon and his crew assume that you watched all five Marvel “prequels” and are ready to hit the ground running in The Avengers....by Sean O'Connell | published: 2012-05-02 11:04:17comments
Upcoming Netflix Streaming Titles Include Drive And ThorNetflix's streaming catalogue has been getting a little stale of late.

Mondo Reveals Four More Exclusive Avengers PostersMy favorite, by far, is the Iron Man one designed by Kevin Tong, though Martin Ansin’s Thor – with its lightning-bolt disruptions – is a close second.

New Avengers Clip Shows Thor And Cap In Battle Against AliensWe've seen that shot of Thor extending his hand to Cap in several of the previous trailers, and I've always liked that small moment-- it seems to say a lot about what the film will be showing about putting a team together and learning to be a family, even when one of you is a poor kid from Brooklyn...by Katey Rich | published: 2012-04-13 13:52:54comments

Possible New Avengers Villain Revealed?If Whedon wants to build something truly massive in scope, he’d be wise to bring in more than one opponent for this might Marvel team.

Avengers Assemble With Their Logo In New Character PostersBy now we're all pretty familiar with the Avengers logo and teaser poster, with the giant A that's so big it can't even fit on the poster.

Kenneth Branagh Trying On Italian Shoes For His Next Directorial EffortThe trade says the project is being backed by Sweden’s Yellow Bird, which financially supported the adaptations of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium trilogy.

Brian Kirk Not Officially Set To Direct Thor 2In early August reports came down that said Thor 2 would be directed by Game of Thrones director Brian Kirk. The selection was a real win-win for both the fans and the studio.
