It also confused me a little since I have been a big fan of Fenrir for years (you have to admit a giant wolf of pretty awesome). When they first said his name I was like “what the heck who is this Fenris isn’t his name Fenrir?”
Oof, ya same! Only I never noticed that they changed his name. I guess I just don't pay attention. (Yeet, that's me for ya!)
I don't know either, Fenrir just looked like... A giant black wolf. The end. But Smite did a good job on Fenrir, and when I heard Fenrir was in the movie, I expected this:
