It looks like Thor: Ragnarok will be more similar to Guardians of the Galaxy then Captain America: Civil War as Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige confirms they’ll be limited time on Earth.

It was always expected the third Thor film would be intergalactic spending time in Asgard and taking elements from the Planet Hulk storyline. Now, Feige has told press there will only be “three scenes” where are heroes will be on Earth.

He said (via CinemaBlend) “The upcoming movies with be as much up [in space] as they are on Earth, starting with not Spider-Man, starting with Thor: Ragnarok. There are three scenes on Earth in Thor: Ragnarok.

“Everything else is Asgard and – not all these worlds but – worlds that certainly… let’s put it this way, in Thor lingo, it’s beyond the nine realms.

“There are other planets that we spend a lot of time on in Thor: Ragnarok that certainly people would say, ‘Oh, that’s sort of like Guardians world’, but they’re just other areas of the Marvel cosmos universe” he added.

It shouldn’t be much of a surprise this film will be set in space with the synopsis showcasing how big and epic the movie will be and the “three scenes” Feige is talking about is Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Loki (Tom Hiddleston) looking for their father.

Just in case you haven’t seen it, the official synopsis reads like this:

“In Marvel Studios’ Thor: Ragnarok, Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer and finds himself in a race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok – the destruction of his homeworld and the end of Asgardian civilization – at the hands of an all-powerful new threat, the ruthless Hela. But first he must survive a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits hi against his former ally and fellow Avenger – the Incredible Hulk!”

Thor: Ragnarok will be thundering into cinemas on October 27, 2017.
