New “Thor: Love and Thunder” Teaser Reveals Fresh Footage of the Ultimate Team

We’re getting awfully close to the premiere of co-writer/director Taika Waititi’s Thor: Love and Thunder, so much so that you can get your tickets now. What better way to celebrate this than with a new teaser, which fronts the arrival of Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), a sociopath hellbent on taking out all of the universe’s gods and goddesses. Guess who that includes? Yup, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and the newest Goddess on the scene, Natalie Portman’s Mighty Thor.

Yet it’s not just Thor and Mighty Thor versus Gorr. As the new teaser highlights, the two former lovebirds turned super-powered teammates have friends, notably Valkryie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi), and the Guardians of the Galaxy. The Guardians on hand are Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord, Dave Bautista’s Drax, Bradley Cooper’s Rocket, Vin Diesel’s Groot, Pom Klementieff’s Mantis, and Karen Gillan’s Nebula. Oh, and not for nothing, Russell Crowe plays Zeus.

What’s so much fun about Waititi’s take on Thor is how he turned the most self-serious Avenger into the funniest, and most fun-loving, and then surrounded him with friends and frenemies as wild as he is. Thor: Ragnarok proved that Waititi creates worlds in which the actors love to play, and with Love and Thunder, he’s promised that he’s never written or directed anything this insane.

Check out the new teaser below. Thor: Love and Thunder hits theaters on July 8.
