Yesterday, there was this wild rumor going around that Thor would make a cameo in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. It was all sparked by this picture director James Gunn posted to his Facebook.
Evidently, Gunn was just having some fun, as he posted a new caption debunking the rumor.
So, comicbookmovie.com is still holding on to something behind this pic, other than the reasons Gunn has blatantly stated. They believe that, instead of Thor, another hero who has wielded Mjolnir will be in the flick.
Beta Ray Bill, a.k.a. Beta Ray Thor, is part of an alien race called the Korbonites. After being worthy enough to weild Mjolnir, Odin gave him his own hammer called Stormbreaker. When you visit The Collector’s lair in the MCU, you can see a being that resembles a Korbonite. Though, Gunn has debunked that, as well. I’m with comicbookmovie, and think Gunn has something up his sleeve.
If Beta Ray makes an appearance, he could be in next year’s Thor: Ragnarok (November 3) or Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (May 5th).
