Heimdall

Leaving aside the rumor that Heimdall has the last Infinity Stone (you know, he can see all souls), Idris Elba’s character also makes a brief appearance in the trailer. And he isn’t wearing his shining golden suit, which further explains how Hela was able to come to Asgard unannounced. So where is he, and why did he leave his post?

We can assume that Loki has something to do with his departure. After all, Heimdall should have been one of the first Asgardians for Loki to fear after Odin’s fall. We can further assume that Loki sent Heimdall to some unknown location, as he did with Odin.

In the teaser, Heimdall battles what appears to be a Hela minion with his trusted sword (you know, the sword that grants easy access to all realms). Is Hela after him because of this sword, which can also be used to destroy the realms? Or is she after him because he possesses the Soul Stone?

Heimdall seems surprised as the fight progresses. Maybe he realizes that he’s already lost the battle. Who knows?
