Marvel Studios has unveiled a series of character posters that show off the colorful ensemble of the upcoming sequelThor: Ragnarok.Taika Waititi(Hunt for the Wilderpeople) directs what may just serve as something of a reboot for the character/franchise, with a story that somewhat ignores theThormovies before it in favor of introducing a more comedic, less self-serious Thor. The plot findsChris Hemsworth’s title character removed from his hammer by the villainous Hela (Cate Blanchett) and thrown across the galaxy where he encounters an old friend (Hulk) and new frenemies (Jeff Goldblum’s Grandmaster andTessa Thompson’s Valkyrie). Thor must convince others to join him in stopping Hela from bringing an end to the galaxy once and for all.
