Marvel Studios drops First Teaser for “Thor: Ragnrok”!

Published

on

The past couple of weeks have proven to be a bit of a publicity war between
DC Films and Marvel Studios. A mere three days after the release of the
new Justice League trailer, Marvel revealed their first full theatrical
trailer for Spider-Man: Homecoming. After this, DC countered with the
massive announcement that not only is a solo Batgirl film in the works, but
that it is set to be written and directed by Avengers alum, Joss Whedon.
Now, Marvel has felt the need to step up their game even further by giving
us the first teaser for the superhero film that will be directly going up
against Justice League this November; Thor: Ragnarok.

While Thor has always been a central Avengers character and has always been
welcome as a supporting character in the Avengers films, his solo movies
haven’t been held in such a high regard. While still successful in his own
right, Thor has proven to be the lowest grossing character in the Marvel
Cinematic Universe that has had more than one movie released. However, if
this new trailer is any indicator, “Ragnarok” could prove to be a massive
game changer for the son of Odin.

The trailer begins with our hero (Chris Hemsworth) dangling in chains above
a fiery pit, narrating “I suppose you’re wondering how I got here?”. We are
instantly introduced to the film’s villain, Hela (Cate Blanchett), the
Asgardian goddess of death. Engaged in a battle with Thor, the
villainess shatters Thor’s indestructible hammer Mjolnir as though it is
made of glass. The trailer proceeds to show us footage of Hela’s army
overtaking Asgard while inter cutting brief appearances of Jeff Goldblum as
Grandmaster and Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, two new characters to the
Marvel Cinematic Universe. We see a brief shot showcasing the return of Tom
Hiddleston’s Loki, who appears to be leading an army of his own. Next we
are thrust into an enormous gladiator arena where a now short-haired Thor
is preparing to battle an unknown opponent. Thor suddenly becomes ecstatic
when it’s revealed that his nemesis is none other than his friend and
fellow Avenger, the Incredible Hulk. The two charge at each other before
the title card is revealed.

While the Justice League trailer may have provided some incredible effects
and thrills, Thor: Ragnarok is giving us that plus a sense of fun and
euphoria often seen in MCU films. While most (myself included) will be
seeing both films this November, it’s very clear as to which one will be
more delightful. Thor: Ragnarok hits theatres everywhere on November 3rd.

DISNEY+ CASTS DANIEL DIEMER AS FAN-FAVORITE ‘TYSON’IN SEASON TWO OF “PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS”

Published

on

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
