‘In Thor, I Built The Character As Somebody Who Is Very Misunderstood And Heartbroken. He’s A Younger

‘In Thor, I built the character as somebody who is very misunderstood and heartbroken. He’s a younger brother who’s been brought up in the shadow of his older brother. And his spiritual heartbreak has become this kind of scar that’s both internal and external. He’s given free rein to his vengefulness and his hate. I mean, he is comparable to so many of the great villains of human history: who have tried to subjugate people; who’ve tried to rule; who’ve tried to get everyone beneath them.’
