While little is known about the storyline of "Thor: Ragnarok", fans have speculated that its subtitle suggests the movie will be a straight adaptation of the popular Ragnarok story from both Norse mythology and the comic book series. However, a new spoilerish rumor has made its way out online, revealing a very different storyline and setting.
The rumor which comes from Schmoesknow.com suggests that the subtitle doesn't refer to the storyline from the comics, but it refers to a planet called Ragnarok. [SPOILER ALERT!] Sources claim that the planet is where Chris Hemsworth's God of Thunder and Mark Ruffalo's Hulk will be imprisoned. The pair have to fight to get out of the arenas run by Jeff Goldblum's Grandmaster.
The site adds that during the battle, Thor and Hulk will come across Karl Urban's Skurge and Tessa Thompson's Valkyrie. Skurge is a tough enforcer of Grandmaster who is said to have a pivotal role in the third "Thor" movie, while Valkyrie is a fellow contestant in the battle arenas. The former apparently has a change of heart and decides to help the son of Odin escape.
No further information is available, but the follow-up to "Thor: The Dark World" will see the return of Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Idris Elba as Heimdall and Anthony Hopkins as Odin. The Taika Waititi-directed superhero flick also stars Cate Blanchett who is set to play the villainous Hela.
"Thor: Ragnarok" will arrive in U.S. theaters on November 3, 2017.
