The Kidd here...
Did you expect anything less?
How could we return to Asgard without Heimdall?
Idris Elba confirmed that he'd be returning in some capacity for the follow-up to THOR in an interview with Collider. As for what his role will be thus yet, Elba has no idea what new director Alan Taylor has in store for him yet as THOR 2 is still in the scripting stages, and, from my talk with Tom Hiddleston a few weeks ago, the only thing that the cast has been shown is an outline. However, that doesn't stop Elba from speculating as to what he'd like to learn about Heimdall in this chapter.
"I'd just like to get to know him a bit more. Who is Heimdall? He guards the gate. Okay. Is there anything else? I don't know what is in the script because I haven't read it yet. But, the audience has responded to Asgard and wants to know more about who lives there and what it's about. I'm sure, if they do that, Heimdall will be featured more."
THOR 2 is set to head into production sometime this summer, in order to hit its November 2013 release date.
