EXCLUSIVE: FIRST CONCEPT IMAGES OF "THOR" COSTUME

Ok, so after we've seen the concept images of Captain America's costume yesterday, today the Net is swamped by the similar concept images of Thor's costume, but this time Marvel hasn't really confirmed whether this one is real or not. Off course it doesn't mean we can't study the look of Chris Hemsworth in these pics. Do you like it? I'm not really amazed, I've expected something more spectacular and more stylish, this costume looks a bit too rough for me, but we shall wait and see whether it's the real costume or not.
As you know, directed by Kenneth Branagh and starring Chris Hemsworth "Thor" will follow a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans as punishment. Once here, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth.

  1. This might work for Thor, after being brought into the Avengers fold… But, for an Asgardian Thor, I thought they should go a little more Nordic looking… Just a touch more…

  2. Underwhelmed is a good word. Hope that's not really what his hammer will look like, either.

  3. I think the costume fits the Marvel-verse fine, but I agree with Jaccstev, I think a bit more Nordic looking would have been better (not much, just a tad to give us some grounding). I'm hoping that Mjolnir will get a better treatment once shooting begins, it looks pretty pitiful at the moment. You can't slay ice giants with that thing! Still unbelievably psyched to see this film though!

  4. yep, guys, I agree with all of you, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this will look better in the movie. We've already seen a picture of Chris Hemsworth in THOR last month but it showed just his head and a very small part of the costume.

  5. You've said it all guys. :) I would just like to add that this suit still looks plastic (even the chain mail). At least Chris looks like a Thor with that haircut.

    But I'm still interested in this almost as much as I interested in upcoming Green Lantern.

  6. yes, I like Chris' haircut as well, but I don't like those monstrous boots.

  7. Chris Hemsworth definitely captures Thor's Nordic look, but I\m not sure about the costume. It might look better on screen :)

  9. I still think (hope so) his costume will be CGI-enhanced. At least to make his plastic chain-mail look like it's made of metal.
    I've read they did the same thing with Cate Blanchett's armor in Robin Hood.

  10. I like it, I wish the hammer was a little bigger though. Definitely could of been a lot worse.
