It looks like Chris Hemsworth is officially cutting his long blond locks for "Thor: Ragnarok". Mark Ruffalo has just shared new photos of his costar on the set of the Marvel Cinematic Universe film. But does this confirm that the third "Thor" film will follow the "Planet Hulk" comic book storyline?
It has already been rumored that "Thor: Ragnarok" will touch upon "Planet Hulk". In the comic books, The Hulk becomes the most powerful gladiator in the planet Sakaar. There are speculations that the MCU film will show Mark Ruffalo's Hulk in the planet before Chris Hemsworth's Thor finds him. Oh, and Thor gets his head shaved and is forced to fight The Hulk.

OK, so at least his head is not shaved. Reports from the San Diego Comic-Con have revealed that Thor will be really short and he would be wearing some war paint in the film. However, the images prove that Chris Hemsworth's Odinson will sport a radical new look in "Thor: Ragnarok".
"Thor: Ragnarok" is directed by Taika Waititi and also stars Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie. The film is scheduled for release on November 3, 2017.
