Clancy Brown is Playing Surtur in THOR: RAGNAROK
Some of the most interesting roles we get to see in the MCU have got to be the weird CGI Supervillains. Josh Brolin as Thanos, Benedict Cumberbatch playing his own villain Dormammu in Doctor Strange, and now we can add one more CGI Megamonster to the mix... Surtur.
Surtur is who I assume will be the end boss villain in Thor: Ragnarok, seeing as in the comics Surtur is one of Thor's most dangerous and powerful villains and brings forth the end of the world a.k.a. Ragnarok. We actually get our first look at him at the end of the most recent trailer for the film. So who do you get to play the demon who ends the world? Clancy - Mother-F****- Brown.
Clancy Brown was recently announced as voicing the part of Surtur while Taika Waititi, who also plays the part of Korg, an alien gladiator friend of Thor's, will do the mo-cap. Brown has had his fair share of playing plenty of villains in comic adaptations from Flash to Daredevil, to voicing characters in cartoons like Red Hulk, Lex Luthor, and even Odin at one time. Brown is a great choice to voice the ultimate villain as he has a powerful and intimidating voice. I have no doubt he will do a great job in the film.
