Thor: The Dark World , the next significant step in Phase 2 of Marvel’s cinematic masterplan, is hitting cinemas soon, and an extended trailer has been released as a handy reminder.

There’s not a huge amount of new footage in there, but it does a decent job of reminding you that you should be very, very excited…

Once again, fan favourite Loki (Tom Hiddleston) plays a key role, introducing the trailer with a sneering voiceover. While plot specifics are still a little scarce, the power of the invading Dark Elves – led by Christopher Eccleston’s Malekith – is left in no doubt.

With Thor splitting his time between Earth and Asgard (while trying to patch things up with Jane Foster), the scope of this one looks huge.

Get watching the extended trailer now:

Starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman and Anthony Hopkins, Thor: The Dark World opens in the UK on 30 October 2013, before landing in the US on 8 November 2013.

The trailer also includes a nice reminder for Marvel TV project, Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. , which debuts in the US on 24 September 2013, before airing in the UK on 27 September 2013.

Marvel has confirmed that both Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Thor: The Dark World will be heading to Comic-Con, while making an intriguing reference to Phase 3 of its cinematic output.

As well as confirming the aforementioned sequels, the official press notes promise that the Marvel panel will include “an inside look at the ever-expanding Marvel cinematic universe.”

Could it be that the studio will use the convention to officially unveil its Phase 3 lineup? With a number of untitled projects currently pencilled in on its release slate, now might be the perfect time to reveal what those mystery films actually are.

There are currently four Marvel titles in line to follow The Avengers 2 , with Ant-Man arriving on 6 November 2015, before the first untitled film on 6 May 2016, the second on 8 July 2016, and another on 5 May 2017.

Marvel has previously used the convention to make huge announcements (remember the whole Avengers shebang back in 2010), so don’t be surprised to see some huge developments unfold when Comic-Con kicks off on 18 July…
