Thor – Ragnarök

Thor is once again focused on finding the Eternity Stones. However, his search has not progressed and it takes a new direction when he learns that his father Odin is no longer in Asgard. Thor finds out that Loki, disguised as Odin, has indeed ruled Asgard, and he forces his brother to join him in searching for his father.

The search for Odin takes a new turn when the goddess of death, Hela, is freed from her mystical prison and declares herself the ruler of Asgard, a kingdom of characters from Norse mythology. Thor unfortunately ends up imprisoned on the other side of the universe on a gladiator-loving planet, without his Mjölnir hammer. Thor and the crooked Loki have to join forces against Hela and they have to get back to Asgard in a hurry to prevent Ragnarök – the destruction of their home world and the end of the Asgardian civilization.

Before that, however, he must survive a life-threatening gladiatorial battle where he must face his former ally and fellow Avenger – the Hulk! Directed by Taika Waititi. As actors, e.g. Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston and Cate Blanchett.
