This year, we may have a shot at seeing the first truly greatThormovie withThor: Ragnarok. That movie sadly won’t be dropping until November, so we still have some time to wait. Fortunately for Marvel fans, we are going to be getting a new adventure featuringChris Hemsworthas the God of Thunder before then in the form ofTeam Thor: Part 2. Now, directorTaika Waititihas given us a little tease of the upcoming short.
For those who may not know or may need a little refresher,Team Thorsurfaced online last year after first debuting at San Diego Comic-Con. The short featured Thor and his human roommate Darryl, showing what he was up to during the events ofCaptain America: Civil War. The short was directed byThor: RagnarokhelmerTaika Waititiand it was recently confirmed that another installment ofTeam Thorwill be arriving on theDoctor StrangeBlu-ray. The director recently took to hisInstagramto post a photo seemingly fromTeam Thor: Part 2, showing Thor eating quite a large feast at a pretty humble kitchen table. Also, Mjolnir is in a baby chair, which is pretty great. Here is howTaika Waititicaptioned the photo.

Many might have thought this photo was some sort of tease forThor: Ragnarok, but asTaika Waititiexplains in his caption, the picture is credited to Darryl Jacobsen, who happens to be Thor’s roommate inTeam: Thor. So, even thoughTeam Thor: Part 2was already confirmed to be on theDoctor StrangeBlu-ray, this confirms that the original creative team is back and this is our first little tease as to what we may see in the next installment of Thor and Darryl’s life together as roommates. The firstTeam Thorwent viral and was so beloved by fans that a petition was started to try and get Thor andDarryltheir own Netflix series. While that probably isn’t happening, at least we are getting some moreTeam Thornext month.
It makes sense thatTeam Thor: Part 2will be showing up on theDoctor StrangeBlu-ray, since The Sorcerer Supreme will be teaming up with Loki and Thor inThor: Ragnarok. In addition to havingBenedict Cumberbatchalong for the ride,Mark Ruffalowill be reprising his role as Hulk inThor 3, but he also showed up as Bruce Banner in the firstTeam Thor. So, there is a chance he could show up inTeam Thor: Part 2, or maybe Stephen Strange will make an appearance. There is a lot of potential.
Ragnarokis set for release on November 3, which will hopefully be able to improve onThor: The Dark World, a movie that is generally considered to be one of the lesser movies in theMarvel Cinematic Universe. TheDoctor StrangeBlu-ray is set for release on February 28, which is when we can expect to seeTeam Thor: Part 2. In the meantime, you can check out the new photo from directorTaika Waititifor yourself below.
