New THOR: THE DARK WORLD Posters With Malekith & Heimdall

Two new character posters for Thor: The Dark World have arrived just in time to remind us that the upcoming action adventure is not all about Thor, Jane Foster and Loki. Yep, as you’re about to see, this time we have a much better look at Malekith the Accursed, played by Christopher Eccleston, and (pretty creepy) Heimdall, played by Idris Elba. Head inside to check them out! Directed by Alan Taylor, and also starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston, Stellan Skarsgard, Idris Elba, Kat Dennings, Zachary Levi, Jaimie Alexander, Rene Russo and Anthony Hopkins, the movie is set to hit theaters on November 8th, 2013. In case you forgot, Thor: The Dark World continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. For those who may have missed our previous reports, here’s an extended trailer, as well as the latest TV spot for the pic, and in case you’ve missed the official synopsis:

In the aftermath of Marvel’s “Thor” and “Marvel’s The Avengers,” Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.
