Marvel Developing a new Thor Animated Series

Posted by Kevin C. Monday, November 17, 2008

Nothing can stop the Marvel machine. With the overwhelming success from their past movie franchises including the Incredible Hulk, Spiderman and Iron Man, Marvel is banking their upcoming Thor movie (hitting theaters Jurly 16, 2010) will also be another summer blockbuster hit. In fact, they’re so confident of the potential success of Thor, they are developing an animated series to follow, with a target release date of fall 2010.

From SuperHeroHype.com

“Marvel Animation is developing and self-producing a 26 half-hour episode series based on its long-running comic book "Thor," with the series targeted to launch in fall 2010, following Marvel's live-action feature Thor, which hits theaters on July 16, 2010.”

“The animated series will follow Thor, the Norse god of thunder, as he defends his mythical home of Asgard against fantastical villains, fiendish hordes, winged creatures and angry giants. The show will take place in various worlds -- from mountainous landscapes to places of icy mists and fiery voids -- and will include many of the comic's supporting cast, including Balder the Brave, the Warriors Three and Thor's evil adopted brother, Loki.”

Marvel president of animation Eric Rollman said the series is part of the company's plan to follow each live-action movie with an animated series and "offer a continued awareness in the marketplace."
