‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ New Trailer Reveals Christian Bale’s Gorr the God Butcher

Marvel Studios has revealed the first full-length trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder, which will release in theaters on July 8. You can watch the new trailer above, which has many additional footages in addition to what was revealed in the teaser trailer.

The trailer begins with Korg narrating a story, "Kids, get the popcorn out. Let me tell you the story of the Space Viking, Thor Odinson. He was no ordinary man. He was a god. After saving planet Earth for the 500th time, Thor set off on a new journey. He got in shape.  He went from dad bod to god bod.  And after all that He reclaimed his title as the one and only Thor. Oh, spoke too soon." Natalie Portman's Jane Foster appears as Might Thor. At first, Thor seems happy by seeing Mjolnir, but soon he is shocked by seeing his old ex-girlfriend.

The trailer's main attraction is Gorr the God Butcher played by Christian Bale. Whenever he has been shown on screen, the scene has turned into Greyscale mode, it might remain the same in the movie as well. "The only ones who god cares about are themselves. So this is my vow. All gods will die," says Gorr in the trailer.

The trailer also reveals a better look at Zeus played by Russell Crowe, who doubts Thor to be an imposter, "Let's see who you are. I take off your disguise. And flick!" Thor turns naked and yells, "You flicked too hard, dammit!"

Thor (Chris Hemsworth) embarks on a journey unlike any he's ever undertaken: a quest for inner peace. However, his retirement is cut short by a galactic assassin known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who desires the annihilation of the gods. To counter the menace, Thor enlists the assistance of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi), and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman). He, to Thor's amazement, wields his mystical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor.  They embark on a dangerous cosmic adventure together to solve the secret of the God Butcher's vengeance and stop him before it's too late. Below is the new poster:

In MCU, the Ravagers are an interstellar crime syndicate comprising thieves, smugglers, mercenaries, bounty hunters, and pirates. There are nearly a hundred factions of Ravagers around the galaxy. One of the factions was led by Yondu. It seems that Thor will join Star-Lord and other members of Guardians of the Galaxy to become a Ravager for a short period of the film. I cannot confirm how or when this happens, but I would guess that Thor might be going on a secret mission with the Ravagers.
