Things are coming fast and furious in the news department for the Thor movie these days. The guys over at Comic Book Movie have rounded everything up very nicely, so instead of rehashing all of the new Thor movie news, I’ll just shoot a link over to their roundup:
Thor rumors and movie updates
January 25th, 2010Clark Gregg’s S.H.I.E.L.D. Crossover In ‘Thor’ And ‘Iron Man 2′ Confirmed
January 24th, 2010Played by Clark Gregg, Agent Coulson will return for both the “Iron Man” sequel and Kenneth Branagh’s “Thor,” according to Variety. The return of Gregg’s character only further confirms the presence of S.H.I.E.L.D. throughout the overarching Marvel movie narrative — a common line likely to culminate in the superhero team-up film “The Avengers.”
Personally, this is great to see. The more crossover (and involvment of S.H.I.E.L.D.) throughout the franchise, the better I think the movies will tie together. Will be interesting to see if in the Captain America movie they get him in that as well, especially since it’s been rumored that it will be the origin story, set back in WW2 times.
