Thor Ragnarok: South African release date, cast and latest trailer

The third Thor movie (Thor Ragnarok) is around the corner and so much has changed since the first movie, Thor has short hair, Natalie Portman is not involved and the Hulk is now part of the setup. Gotta love those Avengers ey!

When does Thor Ragnarok release in South Africa?

Ragnarok comes four years after 2013’s Thor: The Dark World, it might not feel like that long however due to Thor being a regular in the Avengers movies. Ster-Kinekor will begin showing of Ragnarok on Friday the 27^th of October.

Like basically all of the Marvel superhero movies, Ragnarok is expected to bring in hundreds of millions of dollars globally. The film is also the most anticipated fall release in America.

Who is in the Thor Ragnarok cast?

Chris Hemsworth returns as Thor but his long hair sadly does not, Tom Hiddleston is also back as Loki but as we alluded to above, no Natalie Portman it seems.

Cate Blanchett is the new villain, she plays the Goddess of death Hela and is looking to totally destroy Thor’s planet of Asgard. Mark Ruffalo features heavily as the Hulk and Benedict Cumberbatch is set for a couple of cameos as Dr Strange.
