Mark Ruffalo says Thor: Ragnarok is “a buddy picture with Thor and Bruce Banner”

October 28, 2015 by Gary Collinson

A couple of days ago Mark Ruffalo confirmed his casting in 2017’s Thor: Ragnarok, and now he’s been speaking a little more about the Phase Three threequel, describing it as “a buddy movie”.

“I didn’t really know that much about it, but I think it’s going to be a buddy picture with Thor and Bruce Banner,” the actor tells Daily News. “I think they’ll probably fight. “There’s no doubt, everyone wants us to fight at one point… I know that it’s about [the Norse legends of] Ragnarok, or the end times in the Marvel universe as it pertains to Thor — which seems to be quite the theme these days in movies.”

Thor: Ragnarok is to be directed by Taika Waititi (What We Do in the Shadows) and features a cast that so far includes Marvel veterans Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk), Tom Hiddleston (Loki) and Jaimie Alexander (Lady Sif). The film is set for release on November 3rd 2017.
