Stellan Skarsgard won’t appear in Thor: Ragnarok but could feature in Avengers: Infinity War

February 26, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Although Marvel is yet to make an official announcement on the cast for Thor: Ragnarok, we do know of several cast members who will feature in the God of Thunder’s third solo outing.

However, it looks like we can rule out an appearance from Erik Selvig, with actor Stellan Skarsgard telling Den of Geek that he’ll be sitting out the next movie but could feature in Avengers: Infinity War.

“I have a five-film deal with them, and they still have one option,” said Skarsgard, who has appeared in Thor and Thor: Ragnarok, along with The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron. “Thor 3 is not on my slate, but maybe the next Avengers.”

Thor: Ragnarok is set for release on November 3rd 2017 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), along with Cate Blanchett (Carol).
