Next up on Marvel’s cinematic plate is Thor: The Dark World. Despite all the great news surrounding casting of Guardians of the Galaxy and set photos from Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the next film to be previewed has only had one trailer and minimal amounts of thunder elsewhere. Today Disney released several high resolution photos from the upcoming film which showcase Thor himself and the dark elves, including their king and leader, Malekith, the accursed. Take notice at their blonde hair underneath the battle armor and how their weapons look very organic, yet similar to the Chitauri ones used during the Avengers. Until we get some official posters and other artwork, or a secondary trailer enjoy the gifts that have been given from the All Father, Marvel and his mistress, Disney.

Starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston, Stellan Skarsgård, Idris Elba, Christopher Eccleston, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Kat Dennings, Ray Stevenson, Zachary Levi, Tadanobu Asano and Jaimie Alexander with Rene Russo and Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Marvel’s “Thor: The Dark World” is directed by Alan Taylor and will be released November 8 of this year.

Marvel’s “Thor: The Dark World” continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel’s “Thor” and “Marvel’s The Avengers,” Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.
