![]() ![]() The color of his cape was also dimmed to match the Earth-colored backdrops of the installment. As a result, Thor’s armor switched from glistening silver to stained gold, with a leather protective skirt, simplified braces, and added chainmail on the thighs. Directed by Game of Thrones creative Alan Taylor, much of the costumes and sets created for the movie were reimagined to bring them away from the first film’s high-concept Shakespearean vibe and closer to the realm of gritty fantasy. Thor: The Dark World (2014) – Game of ThorĢ014’s Thor: The Dark World was received poorly by fans of the character, but it may have had one of the coolest Thor designs to date. Who knew hammers also double as a wardrobe summoning. ![]() ![]() He summons his hammer and adds an extra layer to the Ultimate-inspired ensemble, bringing back the sleeves, cape, and discs, and adding a little more the wrist bracers. The Avengers (2012) – Avenging Asgardianīasically just an evolution of the earlier suit, this is the armor Thor wears after taking a beating from the Hulk and deciding he needs a little more protection for the incoming alien invasion. Essentially leisure-wear for the God of Thunder. It even removes the famous discs from his torso in favor of flashier Asgardian details. The suit removed the sleeves and cape and puts the focus on bulky wrist bands, darker red-streaked pants, and silver highlights. It’s perhaps a little more “superhero-ish” than its predecessor, likely to help Thor fit in with his Earthly teammates. This look is a little sleeker than one may be accustomed to seeing in an Asgardian sport. The next time we see Thor, in 2012’s monumental The Avengers, he’s wearing an armor notably similar to the one designed by Bryan Hitch for 2002’s The Ultimates. These exact threads have not been worn since his first movie outing, but they’re still some of the most iconic associated with the character. Kenneth Branagh made good use of the armor’s colored highlights, employing their vibrancy as a way of helping Thor stand out against golden backdrops and in the heat of Shakespearian conflicts. At the time, it was the signature look associated with the character and made much more sense to adapt in live-action than Thor’s original over-the-top comic look. This look was heavily inspired by the suit designed for Thor’s 2007 comic reboot, created by Olivier Coipel, with chainmail sleeves covering Hemsworth‘s bulky arms and a striking red cape flowing down his back. Let’s get started: Thor (2011) – the Mighty Thor From the first time, he raised the hammer in Thor to the last time he laid down the axe in Avengers: Endgame. This may be the highest quantity of costume changes we’ve ever seen a Marvel hero pull off in a single film, except for maybe Iron Man 3, and many of the looks appear to be a far cry from the style Thor had when audiences first met him.Īs such, it seems appropriate to take a walk back down memory lane and revisit every single armor the one-time Prince of Asgard has worn during his time in the MCU. In the span of just one brief teaser, Chris Hemsworth‘s noble protagonist is shown wearing at least seven new outfits. The new adventure, from returning director Taika Waititi, will take the God of Thunder through the farthest reaches of the galaxy, and more importantly, put him in a wide variety of new suits. After several long weeks of anticipation, fans have finally gotten their first look at Marvel’s Thor: Love and Thunder.
