Thor 2: New Images of Chris Hemsworth Battle-Ready From London

Filming continues on Thor 2, “The Dark World,” in London, and with that we have a batch of new images of Chris Hemsworth.

We have yet to see Tom Hiddleston as Loki as well as a first look at Christopher Eccleston as Malekith the Accursed.

Hopefully soon.

We’ve also seen a stuntman for Chris Hemsworth in a new sleeveless leather armor, one more in common with the new Marvel comic book version.

The below images seem to offer that Chris Hemsworth is preparing for battle, something that seems to be happening a lot in this movie.

Update: Video from the London shoot has surfaced featuring Chris Hemsworth as Thor as well.
