Fresh Updates from “Thor” and “The Avengers” are Revealed

>> Oct 8, 2009

Comic book writer Brian Michael Bendis currently shares some fresh details for the two highly anticipated Marvel adaptation movies, "Thor" and "The Avengers". During an interview session with G4, the 42-year-old artist explained that "Thor" will be the biggest surprise coming from the line of Marvel's future films, aside from talking about the Marvel Creative committee's recent meeting for "Avengers".

"Thor is an extravaganza," Bendis said of the hammer-wielding superhero movie project. "The artwork is unbelievable...They flew us all here because Kenneth Branagh wanted to tell us his 'Thor' movie and he pitched it live. It was Shakespearean and went on for hours." Expressing his excitement over "Thor", he continued, "[Branagh] wasn't high selling it. He is an actor and he just sold it. I looked to Joe [Quesada] and went 'Isn't this fun?' When he was done, we were like 'Great! You should do that!' "

Bendis further revealed that the committee that includes Marvel Comics' editor-in-chief Joe Quesada, Marvel Comics' publisher Dan Buckley and Marvel Studios' President of Production Kevin Feige, talked about the characters and how they'll interact, who the villain is, and what the point of the movie is.

"Thor" is an epic adventure that centers on a powerful but arrogant warrior, who is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans after his reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Ausie actor Chris Hemsworth takes the title role with Natalie Portman and Tom Hiddleston among others in supporting roles. Paramount Pictures has scheduled the distribution of the film in U.S. theaters on May 20, 2011.
