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.

Thor unfortunately ends up imprisoned on the other side of the universe on a gladiator-loving planet, without his Mjölnir hammer.

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.
