With the third entry in the Thor franchise; Thor: Ragnarok coming to Cinemas under the Direction of Taika Waititi, it has been announced that Karl Urban and Jeff Goldblum have joined the cast as Skurge and the Grandmaster respectively!
As well as the two new additions, Marvel has confirmed the worst-kept secret in the galaxy; Mark Ruffalo will reprise his Avengers Assemble and Avengers: Age of Ultron role as Dr. Bruce Banner aka The Incredible Hulk opposite Chris Hemsworth in the eagerly awaited superhero epic.
The long rumoured Oscar winner Cate Blanchett is the main villain Hela who in Marvel Comics lore is the Asgardian goddess of death who has been the scourge of Thor in the pages of Marvel Comics dating back to 1964.
Creed stand out Actress Tessa Thompson will be Marvel's newest female superhero Valkyrie, who in Marvel Comics lore is a mighty warrior chosen by Thor's father Odin to bring lost souls to the promised land Valhalla.
Independence Day: Resurgence Actor Jeff Goldblum will be the Grandmaster, an immortal Elder of the universe who will always pursue amusement at any cost with Dredd favourite Karl Urban taking as villainous turn as Skurge, a mighty Asgardian executioner who wields a mighty double-bladed axe.
Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige announced "The continuation of the epic Thor franchise will be powerful and unique, and with the additions of Cate, Jeff, Tessa, Karl, and Mark to the cast we have the makings of his most dangerous and heroic adventure yet.
The sheer, raw talent each of these actors brings to the screen can't be quantified. Having any one of them join the Marvel Cinematic Universe would be an honour, and having all of them is incredible."
Set to hit Cinemas on October 27 2017, Thor: Ragnarok features the return of Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Sir Anthony Hopkins as Odin and Idris Elba as Heimdall.
