According to That Hashtag Show, Ragnarok will see its heroes come across the Cotati, a race of aliens that has existed for millennia. This is particularly noteworthy as in the comics, the Cotati play a role in the creation of a major Guardians of the Galaxy character:

In the comics, the Cotati are best known for being directly responsible for awakening the powers within Mantis, a character that’s set to make her cinematic debut in James Gunn‘s Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 in May. They’re typically depicted as being a stationary plant-like species who tend to rely on their telepathic abilities, but it seems as though, the film versions will look somewhat similar to the character played by Pom Klementieff.

That Hashtag Show was unable to obtain confirmation on whether or not Klementieff will actually reprise her role as Mantis for Thor: Ragnarok, but it’s certainly not out of the question with the film’s release date still over a year away. Also, considering that the Cotati originate on the planet Hala, a.k.a. the homeworld of the Kree, it’s a pretty safe bet that the God of Thunder and the Green Goliath will likely be paying a visit to Hala while on their universal road trip.

**** We hired Reggie, fulfilled our obligations to him, and he quit in the middle of covering two TV series w/ no notice and no explanation. He then ignored our emails asking him to complete his coverage (we had no one else to cover those TV shows). He didn't care. We regret hiring him and we regret putting our trust in him. **** An aspiring writer, longtime film junkie, and former UCLARadio.com disc jockey (where I graduated with a BA in Political Science), I've made the jump from penning book reviews and current events editorials for HonorSociety.org to writing movie and TV news and reviews. When I'm not working towards my certificate in Radio and Television/Video Production at Fullerton College, I enjoy reading (horror, science fiction, and historical/political nonfiction are particular favorites), participating in my school's TV and theatre clubs, attending movie screenings, plays, concerts, and other events, and trying to come up with pithy things to say on social media. Believe it or not, there are occasions where I find time to write for my own leisure.
