Although production has been underway for quite a while now, we were finally treated to a first look at Thor as he appears in the upcoming film today, courtesy of Yahoo.
To get straight to the point, view the picture below:
This is the first official image from the film, and shows how close this movie is aiming to be to the comics. Although it’s not much (no hammer or helmet yet), it should whet your appetite for another addition to Marvel’s ever-expanding cinematic universe.
As I’ve said before, I absolutely cannot wait for this movie! I don’t even know the comics that well but I think this film has potential to be one of the greatest superhero flicks ever.
Thor is directed by Kenneth Branagh, stars Chris Hemsworth as the hammer-wielding god/superhero, and smashes into theaters May 6, 2011.
