Famous Thor Ragnarok Line Was Thought Of By Fan
So when the first trailer for Thor Ragnarok came out, it was clear that the style of the movie was going to be much different than the original and its sequel The Dark World. Thor was going to be teaming up with Hulk, Asgard had fallen, Mjolnir was destroyed, and much more.
But at the end of the trailer, a now iconic line was spoken. When Thor sees Hulk in the gladiator pit of Sakaar, he cries out, “YES!!! We know each other! He’s a friend from work!”
Now, on the surface, this may seem like classic Marvel humor. But in fact, that’s not the case. As Chris Hemsworth reveals, it was a fan that thought of that line.
“We had a young kid, a Make-A-Wish kid on set that day,” Hemsworth told Entertainment Weekly. “In between the takes, I was talking with him, kind of going back and forth, and he goes, ‘You know, you should say, “He’s a friend from work!”‘ So that young man came up with it.”
And people think Marvel doesn’t listen to their fanbase, clearly not so! We thank that young man for what will go down in Marvel history as one of the greatest lines in the MCU. Thor Ragnarok arrives November 3rd.

The fan was a young child, from Make A Wish, too!

Wow, that's awesome. It's nice to see that fans can have some sort of impact in such a great franchise, no matter how small.

That kid really had his wish granted, not by a genie, but by "Thor" Chris Hemsworth himself. It's good to know that things like this do really happen in the real world, wherein a child's wish can be realize and actually be given. It would definitely go down in history. I salute you Sir Chris Hemsworth!

Marvel is always a great franchise and their movies are a wonder and I am a big fan too. I really appreciate the fact that Marvel does give importance to its fans. It's indeed an awesome line by the young man whoever he is. Thanks to him, the line is witty and pretty hilarious too. 🙂
