Did you know
Thor first appeared in the 1962 comic book, Journey into Mystery.
The big screen adventures of Marvel Comics superhero Thor, the Mighty Avenger continue with Thor: The Dark World, directed by Alan Taylor.
In The Dark World, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. As Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos, an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith (Christopher Eccleston) returns to plunge the universe back into darkness.
Faced with an enemy that even Odin (Anthony Hopkins) and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark in his most perilous and personal journey yet — one that will reunite him with Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.
Catch the action, adventure and magic when Thor: The Dark World hits local cinema screens on November 7.
