[originally posted here]It's finally here, the trailer for Marvel's anticipated Thor, to be released May 6th 2011. Adapted from the pages of Marvel comics, the film begins as "the powerful but arrogant warrior Thor is cast out of the fantastic realm of Asgard and sent to live amongst humans on Earth, where he soon becomes one of their finest defenders." (imdb.com)

A story heavily embedded in Norse mythology, I was initially worried that Thor would prove too tricky a concept to bring to life on the big screen, but - if the trailer is any indication - it appears that cast and crew alike have crafted something truly special. Directed by Kenneth Branagh (Hamlet), Thor stars Chris Hemsworth (Star Trek) as the titular hero, and boasts a superb supporting cast that includes Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins, Rene Russo, Stellan Skarsgard, Kat Dennings, Ray Stevenson, Idris Elba, and Colm Feore. Clark Gregg (Iron Man, Iron Man 2) also returns to the Marvel movie universe as SHIELD agent Phil Coulson.
