Like Iron Man 3, the latest Thor chapter finds the blond Earth-saver (Chris Hemsworth) in the thick his post-Avengers life – reuniting with Jane Foster (Natalie Portman, welcome back!) and facing off against Malekith, who is threatening total darkness, hence the film's title. And whereas the first Thor film was directed by Kenneth Branagh and had a bit of the Shakespeare-aficionado's flourish for the light-hearted, new director Alan Taylor is keeping true to that dark theme – a skill likely honed from his previous gigs directing episodes of Game of Thrones, Mad Men, and Deadwood.
Bottom line: It's too early to tell how this will turn out, but based on this teaser it's a really good thing this flick – hitting theaters Nov. 8 – is coming only six months after Iron Man 3.
Update: The internet (mostly Tumblr) has taken a keen interest in Loki's new 'do and run with it, making Photoshops and other images based on his look. Check out some of the best so far – including comparisons between Loki and Snape, Skrillex and Slash – in the gallery above.
