There has been some speculation about how the thunder god Thor's mystical heritage will marry up to Iron Man's high-tech world when they team up in the forthcoming Avengers movie.
"We're not doing the blow-the-dust-off-of-the-old-Norse-book-in-your-library Thor," Feige told SFX.
"And in the Thor of the Marvel Universe, there's a race called the Asgardians. And we're linked through this Tree of Life that we're unaware of.
"It's real science, but we don't know about it yet. The Thor movie is about teaching people that."
Thor - which is due for release on May 6, 2011 - began principal photography earlier in January.
