Thor: Ragnarok Post-Credits Scenes Revealed

Scene 1: Asgardians Under Attack

The mid-credits scene directly follows on from the end of the movie, with Thor and Loki aboard the Asgardian refugee ship after the destruction of their homeworld. The brothers discuss whether Thor’s plan to take their people to Earth is a good one – considering Loki’s previous attempts to conquer the planet.

Thor remains positive about the whole thing, though, stating that he thinks “everything is going to work out just fine.” What he doesn’t know, however, is that a humongous space vessel – that dwarfs the already sizeable refugee ship – is lurking behind them.

No prizes for guessing who’s hiding inside this vessel. Yes, though the scene itself leaves things ambiguous, this has to be Thanos’ mothership. Exactly what he’s going to do with the Asgardians we’re not sure, but we do know that Thor will get separated from his people. How? The SDCC trailer for Avengers: Infinity War saw the God of Thunder land on the windscreen of the Milano, bringing him face to face with the Guardians of the Galaxy.

It’s also worth discussing how Thanos knew where to find the Asgardians. The obvious answer is that Loki is secretly in league with him. The God of Mischief gets a modicum of redemption in Ragnarok, as he decides to stay with Thor on the refugee ship, but this could all be part of a bigger ploy to fool his brother out of the throne once again.

Alternatively, Loki is seen showing an interest in the Tesseract, dwelling in the Asgardian vaults, during the film’s finale, suggesting he’s pinched it. Maybe Thanos has detected the Infinity Stone on board the ship and has come to collect it? After all, he did say he was going to do it himself back in Age of Ultron, so it’s about time he actually took some initiative.

Either way, the message of this post-credits scene is clear: after years of build-up, Thanos the Mad Titan is finally about to come a-knocking.
