90 free Thor: Ragnarok trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
This Thor: Ragnarok trivia quiz covers the 2017 film that turned the Thor series into a neon comedy and gave the character a haircut, a sister and a rock friend called Korg. The plot questions run from Surtur's prison and Loki's Asgardian theatre through Odin's death in Norway, Hela crushing Mjolnir, the garbage planet Sakaar, the Contest of Champions against the Hulk, the Revengers' escape and the decision to let Ragnarök happen after all. The harder half covers how it was made: the directors Marvel considered, the sizzle reel that sold Taika Waititi, the Planet Hulk storyline, the Australian studio that hosted the whole shoot, the working title, the celebrity cameos in the play, the punk icon who inspired Cate Blanchett, the Make-A-Wish child behind the film's most quoted line, the composer, and the box office records. Easy questions suit anyone who has seen it once; the expert ones will test even committed MCU fans. Every answer was checked against the film's Wikipedia article and its cited sources before publishing. For the wider universe, try our Marvel and MCU quizzes.

Q 01Who plays Bruce Banner and the Hulk in Thor: Ragnarok?
Mark Ruffalo
Mark Ruffalo said Kevin Feige asked him what a solo Hulk film would be, then spread that story across three films, starting here and running into the next two Avengers.
Q 02Which fire demon holds Thor prisoner at the start of Thor: Ragnarok?
Surtur
Surtur doesn't hold him long: Thor breaks free, defeats the demon and carries off his crown, believing he has prevented Ragnarök.
Q 03Hela, the sister Thor never knew he had, is the goddess of what?
Death
Death is her title: Odin's firstborn led Asgard's armies until her ambition outgrew his, so he locked her away and wrote her out of history.
Q 04In which country do Thor and Loki find the dying Odin?
Norway
Norway replaced a New York alley where Odin looked homeless: Waititi reshot the scene because the city distracted from a father's last moments with his sons.
Q 05What does Hela do to Mjolnir moments after appearing?
Crushes it in one hand
Crushes it in one hand: the film's star had got 'a bit bored' of the role, and Waititi kept stripping Thor down, long hair and hammer included.
Q 06What is the name of the garbage planet Thor crash-lands on?
Sakaar
Sakaar sits amid wormholes that have spat things onto it for eons, which is why producer Brad Winderbaum called it 'the toilet of the universe'.
Q 07What is Valkyrie's designation when she works for the Grandmaster?
Scrapper 142
Scrapper 142 is the last of the Valkyries, Asgard's female warriors who fell fighting Hela; she has spent the years since drinking to forget.
Q 08Who plays Valkyrie in Thor: Ragnarok?
Tessa Thompson
Tessa Thompson trained to look like Sarah Connor in Terminator 2 after Waititi sent her a picture, and talked him into filming a woman leaving Valkyrie's bedroom, a shot later cut.
Q 09What does the Grandmaster trigger to stop Thor winning the Contest of Champions?
An obedience disk
An obedience disk on Thor's neck shocks him to the floor just as his lightning has turned the fight his way, so the Grandmaster's own champion wins.
Q 10What finally turns the Hulk back into Bruce Banner after two years?
A recording of Natasha Romanoff
A recording of Natasha Romanoff starts playing as the Hulk wrecks the Quinjet he arrived in, and her voice calms him until Banner returns.
Q 11Which larva-like alien with cybernetic limbs joins Korg in starting the gladiators' revolution?
Miek
Miek never says a word in the film; once Thor's allies free the gladiators, he and Korg stir them into the revolt that ends with the Grandmaster overthrown.
Q 12What does Thor lose in his battle with Hela?
His right eye
His right eye is slashed out by Hela, and the loss sticks: the film's star confirmed that Thor carries the eye patch into Avengers: Infinity War.
Q 13How is Hela finally defeated in Thor: Ragnarok?
Asgard is destroyed around her
Asgard is destroyed around her: because she draws her power from the realm, Thor has Loki put the crown in the Eternal Flame and set off the apocalypse he once tried to stop.
Q 21Which Shawshank Redemption actor voices the fire demon in Thor: Ragnarok?
Clancy Brown
Clancy Brown supplies only the voice: Waititi performed the demon's motion capture on set himself, as he did for the rock gladiator Korg.
Q 22What is Stan Lee's cameo in Thor: Ragnarok?
A barber
A barber with spinning blades for hands is his role: Thor goes from bluster to begging once he sees them, and loses his long hair anyway.
Q 23Which Hollywood star plays the Loki actor in the Asgardian play?
Matt Damon
Matt Damon is the punchline: Waititi figured a vain Loki would 'get a huge celebrity to play myself', and it was shot 'on a lark' after the film's star suggested his friend.
Q 14What is the name of the Grandmaster's ship that carries Thor and his people away at the end?
The Statesman
The Statesman arrives with Loki and the freed gladiators in time to take Asgard's people off the Bifröst bridge, and Thor ends the film aboard it as king.
Q 15Who plays Hela in Thor: Ragnarok?
Cate Blanchett
Cate Blanchett learned the martial art capoeira for the fights, yet had to play Hela in a motion-capture suit and wore her headdress only for photo shoots.
Q 16Which punk singer inspired the movement of the actress playing Hela?
Siouxsie Sioux
Siouxsie Sioux's 'unique, unconventional movement' shaped how Hela commands a space; the actress said she was channelling the punk-rock iconography of the '70s and '80s.
Q 17Who plays the Grandmaster in Thor: Ragnarok?
Jeff Goldblum
Jeff Goldblum kept his own skin tone: Waititi skipped the comic character's blue because Goldblum had already been blue in Earth Girls Are Easy.
Q 18The Grandmaster is the brother of which Guardians of the Galaxy character?
The Collector
The Collector is his brother, a tie Marvel's Kevin Feige said the studio loves; asked whether the two would ever share the screen, he said it 'would be great'.
Q 19Who plays Skurge, Hela's executioner?
Karl Urban
Karl Urban shaved his head to play Skurge, who serves Hela with an uneasy conscience and finally gives his life so the ship carrying Asgard's people can get away.
Q 20Whose voice did Waititi base Korg's soft-spoken delivery on?
Polynesian bouncers
Polynesian bouncers with soft, delicate voices were his model: Waititi wanted a soft-spoken rock monster as something different, and also drew on his friend Rhys Darby.
Q 24What everyday object is Mjolnir disguised as on Earth in Thor: Ragnarok?
An umbrella
An umbrella is Mjolnir's disguise on Earth: when Thor holds out a hand to summon it indoors, it smashes through glass on its way to him.
Q 25Which scene did Waititi write and shoot on another Marvel film's sets before they were demolished?
Thor meeting Stephen Strange
Thor meeting Stephen Strange was shot on the Doctor Strange set before it was struck; that film's director found it 'kind of perfect' and used it in his own credits.
Q 26Which 2006 comic storyline about alien gladiators was folded into Thor: Ragnarok?
"Planet Hulk"
"Planet Hulk" nearly stayed off screen: an Age of Ultron script had the Hulk's jet detected near Saturn, but Marvel changed it to an Earth location to keep its options open.
Q 27Which Led Zeppelin track from Waititi's pitch reel ended up in Thor: Ragnarok and its trailers?
"Immigrant Song"
"Immigrant Song" scored the sizzle reel Waititi cut to pitch for the job; Kevin Feige said it 'defined what Taika was going to do', and it stayed for the trailer and the film.
Q 28Which Kurt Russell film did Waititi cite as the tonal touchstone for Thor: Ragnarok?
Big Trouble in Little China
Big Trouble in Little China gave him a model hero: Waititi said Jack Burton is a buffoon but lovable, and he wanted Thor to be the one you want to be with in every scene.
Q 29Which 1980 film did Waititi ask every department head to watch before starting work?
Flash Gordon
Flash Gordon was a film Waititi grew up loving; he said that if Freddie Mercury were alive he would have asked Queen to do the Ragnarok soundtrack.
Q 30Roughly what share of Thor: Ragnarok's dialogue did Waititi say was improvised?
80 percent
80 percent was his estimate: Waititi stands beside the camera yelling new lines at the actors, to keep the mood loose and collaborative.
