He is the immortal God of Thunder - The Mighty Thor! Marvel.com has revealed the first official teaser poster for Thor, their next epic adaptation of the mythical superhero from Asgard. The first trailer (not a bootleg) for Thor will be online tomorrow evening at around 4PM PST, so this is our first tease to hold us over until then. It looks like they might be downplaying the costume and hiding it a bit in the shadows, or just hinting that this is an epic comic book adaptation that will be dark and should be taken seriously. I'm leaning towards the latter. This is a pretty badass first poster, so check it out in all of its full glory below!
This epic adventure spans the Marvel Universe - from present day Earth to the mythical realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is The Mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth), a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans as punishment. Once here, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth. Paramount has already set a May 6th summer release in 3D for Marvel's Thor. Stay tuned for the official trailer premiere tomorrow evening. Thoughts?

I've always liked Thor and I'm really looking forward to this. Time now for Sgt. Rock, Turok and The Flash.

The Ultimates comic had a great interpretation of Thor. Everyone, Ironman, Capt. America etc. thought Thor was a schizophrenic mutant who only thought he was a god. Hope they use that aspect to ground the fanciful story in some reality.... Bet they haven't though

If I was a mutant, I could make a pretty convincing argument that I was a god, of course if I was a god I could make a very convincing argument that I was a mutant. Thor is full of awesomeness!

I'm just glad they didn't go with the blue/yellow contrast... This looks good and the armor doesn't look nearly as bad as the original pics that were released.
