The plot of the movie revolves around the struggle of Thor (Chris Hemsworth) after Hela (Cate Blanchett) decided to claim the throne and destroyed most of Asgard. Thor reunited with another member of the Avengers, Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) in the pits of Sakaar.
Tom Hiddleston also reprised his role as Loki. Doctor Stranger (Benedict Cumberbatch) also made a short cameo in the movie.

The video also revealed most of the Marvel characters to appear in the third movie installment of the Avengers. Next in line for Marvel is "Black Panther" in 2018.
