Thor 2 will be released on November 15th, 2013, and production is expected to start later this summer. The script was written by Don Payne, who co-wrote the first draft of the first movie, and Robert Rodat is currently polishing it up. Like I said, Eva shows more of a forceful, commanding side to her (Camelot, Casino Royale). The sequel is being directed by Alan Taylor who worked on Game of Thrones, and from what we've heard he'll be bringing that setting and style to the world of Asgard, which will be cool to see. If cast he'll join most of the cast from the original Thor film including Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Hopkins and Natalie Portman. Mikkelson will fit right into this world, and I think he'll make a great villain. Bad Times at the El Royale stars Jeff Bridges as Father Flynn later revealed to be Dock OKelly, Cynthia Erivo as Darlene Sweet, Lewis Pullman as Miles Miller, and Jon Hamm as Laramie Seymour. There's no word on what villain he'll play, but it's in addition to Tom Hiddleston's Loki who will obviously have a big part in making Thor's life a living hell. Marvel is gearing up to get Thor 2 into production, and they are currently in talks with Mads Mikkelsen ( Casino Royale, Valhalla Rising) to take on the role of a villain in the story.
