"Thor 3: Ragnarok" will move its premiere to a later date to give way to Sony's Spider Man movie. Tom Hiddleston may have hinted that the upcoming film will be Loki's last movie as Armageddon approaches Asgard.
Marvel Studios has recently changed the premiere release date for "Thor 3: Ragnarok" to a later date. The initial scheduled release date for July 28, 2017 has been moved to November 3, 2017. News states that the said move was made to accommodate Sony's Spider-Man film in accordance with Marvel's deal with Sony to allow Spider-Man to appear in Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The same report also said that "Thor 3: Ragnarok" is being treated by the production team as if it is in a "critical condition". According to their source, Marvel is looking for a new director who will be able to treat the franchise "with respect".
In related news, Tom Hiddleston teased fans with new details on the upcoming Thor movie on the red carpet of the recent Bafta Awards Show. According to the actor, "'Thor 3' is happening at some point and the last time we saw Loki he was on the throne, so there's some questions to be answered."
When the interviewer in the Bafta Awards asked Tom Hiddleston if Loki can continue to indulge in his evil conducts even beyond "Thor 3: Ragnarok", the actor hinted that fans should not keep their hopes up high. Hiddleston said "I don't know if I could. I think if I keep dying my hair black, it's going to fall out," he added that "I love the character. It's a great character; it's amazing how the whole Marvel world has been embraced by people who love film." This may have indicated that "Thor 3: Ragnarok" may be the end of the line for Loki's evil schemes.
Chris Hemsworth also mentioned the possible "Thor 3: Ragnarok" plot in his interview before the movie was officially announced. Hemsworth said "I think that in the comic book the sort of end-of-days, Armageddon aspect is probably the direction in which it will all head in," adding that "..I thought it was an interesting way to go." The actor may have been referring to the arrival of Surtur who is the leader of the Fire Demons of Muspelheim and is considered to be one of Thor's toughest opponents.
"Thor 3: Ragnarok" will hit the silver screen on November 3, 2017. Fans can expect another Thor-Loki standoff as a new threat looms over Asgard.
