First Official Image And New Plot Details From ‘Thor: The Dark World’ Revealed

In the latest issue of Empire Magazine now only do we get our first official look (even though sadly it’s a set image) from Thor: The Dark World, but we also get some new plot details from the upcoming sequel. The image features an armored up Chris Hemsworth as Thor and director Alan Taylor on set with some Asgardian warriors in the background.

While speaking with magazine executive producer Craig Kyle revealed that the events of the upcoming sequel will take place one year after The Avengers and two years after Thor.  He also revealed that at the start of the film that we will see Asgard battered by war and The Nine Realms beset “by rag-tag invaders known as The Maraunders”. 

Marvel’s “Thor: The Dark World” continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel’s “Thor” and “Marvel’s The Avengers,” Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.

Thor: The Dark World hits theaters November 8, 2013.
