‘Thor: The Dark World’ Gets Its Villian!

A few weeks ago, we speculated as to who the villains might be in Thor: The Dark World. Well guess what, we were right! Thor will indeed face off against Malekith The Accursed and his Dark Elves of Svartalfheim.

Deadline is reporting that Christopher Eccleston (the ninth Dr. Who and Destro in GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra) has been cast as Malekith The Accursed. Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Natalie Portman, and Anthony Hopkins are all set to reprise their roles from the first film and Zachary Levi has also joined the cast.  The sequel begins filming Thursday in the UK and is set for release Nov. 15, 2013.
