Karl Urban reveals dramatic new look for Thor: Ragnarok role

Karl Urban has revealed his brand new look for the role of Skurge in Thor: Ragnarok and it’s bold, literally.

Urban, who featured in Star Trek Beyond, took to Facebook to debut his new look for the Marvel film. Check it out below:

Urban described the character of Skurge as having “a great arc to him”. And he’s certainly embracing the role with his new shaved head.

In the comics, “Skurge is originally an Asgardian supervillain who conducted Loki’s dirty work with his magic double-bladed battle axe, turned good guy when he joins in the fight to delay Ragnarok.”

Urban certainly now resembles Skurge from the comics.

Joining Urban in the cast are the returning Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Anthony Hopkins and Idris Elba. Cate Blanchett, Jeff Goldblum and Tess Thompson are new additions.
