THOR: THE DARK WORLD Casts Captain of the Elite Einherjar and Thor’s Brother Tyr, the God of War

Just because THOR: The Dark World is already filming doesn’t mean that they aren’t still figuring out the cast. This is something that always troubles me about movies, but I guess is just commonly done. I mean, hell, if they didn’t have cast additions and changes in film, Eric Stoltz would be who we know as Marty McFly.

So, who are the newest people to cross the bifrost into the world of Thor: The Dark World?

First up is Richard Brake. He played Joe Chill, they thug who killed Bruce Wayne’s parents in Batman Begins. Now, he’ll be playing the role of a captain of the elite warriors known as the Einherjar. The Einherjar were led by Ander and were responsible for training Thor.

Joining him will be Clive Russel in the role of Thor’s Brother, Tyr. Unlike Loki, Tyr is Odin’s natural son. The brothers have a contentious relationship at best and Thor may find himself with yet another adversary in addition to Loki (Hiddleston) and the expected Dark Elves.
