SHADOW PRIEST: O most divine creator,
I seek thy hand,
and pray for the health of Sakaar,
for we are a divided and dying world.
Through the ancient prophets,
you have promised us a warrior savior.
IRON MAN: You fear nothing
and even the mightiest heroes of Earth
cannot deter you.
[ROARS]
A warrior who looks into the eyes of death
and stands his ground.
The madder you get, the stronger you get,
and there is no limit to your rage.
A warrior with boundless strength
whose power knows no end.
We picked your destination carefully.
A planet full of vegetation and game,
no intelligent life-forms.

There will be no one there to hurt you
and no one you can hurt.

By order of the Lord Emperor of Sakaar,
all debris of value which exits

You, snap your chains! Free us!

That's enough, Miek.
You won't regain your full strength

You've been sold as a sl*ve.
The Hulk is no one's sl*ve!
[GRUNTS]
Easy. Hulk, is it?
Those chains are Shadowforged.
They're unbreakable.
You need to save your strength
for the games.
Games?
We are en route to the coliseum,
where our deaths are scheduled
for today's entertainment.
Miek a hider, not a fighter.
Today, we are all fighters, Miek.
And we must stand together
if we hope to survive this.
- You have a plan?
- Yes, Korg, I do.
We'll use your strength and endurance
to our advantage
by having you hold the front line.
You'll be tasked with weakening
our opponents.
Hulk, we'll need you to fight alongside him.
[GRUNTS]
Hiroim, your battles during the Spike Wars
are legendary.
You bring obvious skill
as well as speed and agility.
I am proficient in hand-to-hand combat.
I, too, should be on the front line.
You'll serve best in second position,
along with Hiroim and myself.
Miek, you and the other natives
will join Elloe in the final position.
No, no, no! We object!
We are hived. He is outcast.
Have you heard nothing I've said?
We fight as a team or we die.
You demand too much.
Especially for one who has served
the Red King.
How dare you question his loyalty!
Commander Laven is only a prisoner
because he joined the resistance
to fight against that bloody tyrant.
It's all right, Elloe.
The time for talking is over.
We've arrived.

No. No.
The people would think their king unfair.
Behold!
Your emperor grants this gladiator his life
so that he may continue fighting
for your entertainment.
[CROWD APPLAUDING]
He bled you, sire, in front of the crowd.
Is it wise to let him live?
Who said anything about letting him live?
[GRUNTING]
We pass to next life one Laven Skee.
Friend to some, enemy to others,
respected by all.
He d*ed trying to unite us.
We must honor his death
by becoming Warbound.
Warbound joins us, right? Like...
Like a hive?
And Miek will belong?
Yes, Miek. Now...
Shh!
You'll have your turn.
My name is Hiroim the Shamed
and you shall know the truth of who I am.
Sacrilege! The divine creator
has answered our prayers
by delivering to us the Sakaarson.
Hiroim, it is written
that we shall know the savior
by his fulfillment of prophecy.
You've seen for yourself.
The Red King has struck down evil
by ending the Spike Wars.
He is now uniting the kingdoms.
It was his Death's Head guards
that ended the w*r,
the same guards he uses
to oppress those very kingdoms.
You forget, the prophecies speak
of the World Breaker
as well as the Sakaarson.
The Shadow priesthood
must stand as one, Hiroim.
Will you not join us in shepherding in
this new era?
When the real Sakaarson comes,
if one ever does,
only then will I herald his arrival.
May the divine creator have mercy
on your soul.
HIROIM: They stripped me of my name,
banished me from the order
and cast me into sl*very.
Have you heard the whispers
amongst the guards, Hiroim?
Some dare say the Hulk might be
the true Sakaarson.
- Then they do so out of desperation.
- How can you be so certain?
Because Hulk is clearly not here
to save anyone but himself.
MIEK: Miek's turn to bind!
Miek is Miek,
and it all begins in larva time when...
ELLOE: Miek, not yet.
[EXCLAIMS]
My name is Korg of Krona,
son of O-Korg and k*ller of my brothers.
You shall know the truth of who I am.
We Kronans are the plunderers of worlds.
We take what we want.
Nothing has ever stood in our way,
nothing until we found
a little speck of a planet
green as the Hulk and third from its sun.
We almost missed it.
I wish we had.
We saw our first native
and tried to capture it for study.
But the creature had other ideas.
He tore through the wall
of our strongest cage.
[ALL SHOUTING]
[SHOUTS]
[ALL GASPING]
[ROARS]
And chipped the very stone
from our bodies.
[YELPING]
[GASPS]
We were forced to use a w*apon
that was built to fight armies.
That's when we learned
[ALL GASPING]
he wasn't alone.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
The two natives smashed our Warbot
like it was glass.
Our only option was to flee.
Unfortunately, one of them followed.
We could not outrun the beast
and only escaped by flying
into a wormhole.
We crashed here on Sakaar.
And that was the last time
I saw my brothers,
until today.
A question.
- Miek's time?
- ELLOE: Almost.
My name is Elloe,
daughter of ex-Governor Ronan Kaifi,
founder of the resistance.
You shall know the truth of who I am.
[CROWD CHEERING]
CROWD: [CHANTING]
Sakaarson! Sakaarson! Sakaarson!
Sakaarson! Sakaarson! Sakaarson!
- Sakaarson! Sakaarson!
- Sakaarson! Sakaarson!
- The crowd honors you, my lord.
- They do not chant it for me.
Hear that?
They think you're the savior of this planet.
They're wrong.
Hulk, listen to me.
If we win the next two matches,
we'll have earned our freedom.
So, if you won't fight for us,
at least fight for yourself.
ANNOUNCER: And here they are,
led by the fierce green gladiator
known as the Hulk!
[CROWD CHEERING]
Though he defeated
the Great Devil Corker unscathed,
he earned his first wound in the arena

Nice story. Why are you telling it to me?
Because your actions in the arena
are turning the people away from their king,
and I cannot allow that.
So, what are you gonna do about it?
I've learned that the resistance will make
an attempt to break Elloe Kaifi out tonight.
I can ensure they escape unharmed,
as long as you go with them.
And this thing?
Go beyond the mountains,
and you'll be out of reach.
It's desolate out there, but peaceful.
You'll never have to fight again.
Yeah, I've heard that one before.
Tell your king I'm not going anywhere.
If he wants to k*ll me,
he'll have to do it in the arena
in front of everyone.

- What is that?
- Eye of the Eggbreaker.
Prophets say Sakaarson will look
into eyes of death and stand ground.
To natives, Eggbreaker is death.
Hulk is savior.
