Mark Ruffalo happy to have strong actresses in Thor: Ragnarok
Los Angeles Sep 11 (IANS) Actor Mark Ruffalo says it is great to have strong beautiful and intelligent women like Cate Blanchett and Tessa Thompson in "Thor: Ragnarok".
"It is great that we have Blanchett and Thompson these two amazing powerful strong beautiful intelligent women playing these two important integral characters in this movie " Ruffalo said in a statement.
Ruffalo will reprise the role of Hulk in the third part of "Thor" which also stars Chris Hemsworth as Thor.
Talking about their roles Ruffalo said: "We have Hela played by Blanchett. She has all the power all the strength all the talent of any of the other gods but with all the rage.
"She s angry and she wants to come back and take what she feels is rightfully hers. Except that she s been pushed so far into the darkness that she s become dark. She s now the manifestation of death."
He added: "Then you have Valkyrie played by Thompson. She is another female presence who didn t feel welcome. She s a powerhouse and a brilliant fighter. She s as equally as powerful as Thor. She s a warrior. Valkyrie is one of the people who ended up banishing Hela from Asgard. But she s also lost faith in the patriarchy and the elite power structure " he added.
"Thor: Ragnarok" is directed by Taika Waititi and also stars Idris Elba Tom Hiddelston Anthony Hopkins and Jeff Goldblum among others. The movie will release in India on November 3.
