Here’s our first look at ‘Thor: Ragnarok’

It’s over the top and crazy. As what we’ve gotten accustomed to when it comes to Marvel films. But with this set outside of Earth, Thor: Ragnarok is looking more fantastical. The first trailer for the latest Thor film shows us life after Hela, the Goddess of Death, destroys Mjolnir and invades Asgard. The God of Thunder is suddenly left without a home, a new look, and what looks like a showdown with Hulk. It’s all mighty exciting and we can’t wait for November when the film comes out.
