Pre-production is underway ahead of filming kicking off next month on Marvel’s upcoming “Thor” sequel “Thor: The Dark World”.
Though Mads Mikkelsen has dropped out of playing the villain, an interview with I Review Too from back in June with stuntman James Grogan has indicated just what antagonists our heroic God and his brethren will face in this outing.
Grogan says “I had a load of stunt guys in and the director came in and he said ‘Look, we want you all to be elves,’ and I was like ‘What the hell is an elf anyway?’ and he said ‘I want you all to walk around like these supernatural animals,’ honestly it was the most ridiculous thing ever but you just have to not be self aware and get on with it.”
The elves he’s referring to are the ‘Dark Elves of Svartlalfheim’, which has lead to speculation Mikkelsen would’ve played their ruler Malekith the Accursed.
