The latest news concerning Thor: Ragnarok saw the official announcement of several characters from the movie, including Cate Blanchett as Hela, Karl Urban as Skurge, and Jeff Goldblum as Grandmaster. So it was a pretty important piece of information that was delivered to the fans.
Today, JoBlo came up with a scoop concerning one of these characters and his or her role in the movie. This is a rumor, but still - there could be spoilers here!
Still here? According to JoBlo, Thor: Ragnarok will see the God of Thunder going in search of a powerful weapon, one that could aid in the wars to come (obviously, when Thanos will make his presence felt). We could speculate that his quest is for another Infinity Stone, but we doubt it. Furthermore, JoBlo reports that Chris Hemsworth will be sporting a new look for the movie - or, at least, for a couple of scenes, in which he will be completely shaved. Where did this come from? We'll just wait and see.
On the other hand, the website says that Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie (a new character and, most likely, the newest love interest of the God of Thunder) will have her face painted throughout Thor: Ragnarok, like a Native American warrior.
The website says that Thor: Ragnarok will also adapt (partially) the Planet Hulk storyline. Thus, Hulk will be rocking his Planet Hulk armor from the comics. But, more importantly, he and Thor will find themselves on the same planet and in the same arena - does that mean that they will fight?
JoBlo also reports that Grandmaster, who is one of the Elders of the Universe in the comics, will run the games, along with the Collector. It isn't known how he’ll fit in with Thanos’ bigger plans.
