Another week of filming in London is in store for Marvel's much-anticipated Thor: The Dark World movie. And following last week's battle-heavy scenes, actress Natalie Portman has finally been spotted filming the Alan Taylor-directed Marvel sequel. When cameras were rolling today, Chris Hemsworth was seen costumed running in the street, followed “closely” by Portman.

Also, Stan “the man” Lee's inevitable cameo in the 2013 actioner may have been revealed. According to @MisterGreenwich of Twitter, who's notorious for tracking all things in Greenwich, where filming is taking place, Lee's cameo will involve the follwing; potential spoiler warning.
The bus that Mr. Greenwich is referring to is the London double-decker, with a fictional movie advert on its side, which was spotted last week. It seems the very sequence that Natalie Portman & Chris Hemsworth are filming today will involve the bus. What do you think?

Marvel Studios’ “Thor: The Dark World” continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel’s “Thor” and “Marvel’s The Avengers,” Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.
