Marvel Studios announces Thor: Love and Thunder for November 2021. Starring Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson, and Natalie Portman (as Thor herself)
- Thread starter GJ
- Start date
yeah i'm bummed cause you felt it in her acting for 1 and 2
I hope she does great but I just don't believe it'll happen
Cringe-worthy title, also not sure anyone with a functioning brain stem really wants Jane Foster back in these movies lmao
I hope there are two actresses so that they switch bodies when she holds the hammer like in the comics.
I know that Marvel, who loves having everyone's helmets off as much as possible so you can see the stars they are paying for, wouldn't want to do that. But seeing Natalie Portman in Natalie Portman's body as Thor wouldn't be very convincing.

Portman is a great actress. She's just been given shit material by these movies. Both Thor movies got what they deserved out of her.
Really interested in seeing how this movie plays out. I have no idea how the comics go but I love the MCU so I'm very curious
I thought Hemsworth Thor had fully redeemed himself after Endgame, but I guess not. Maybe he'll be off with the Guardians while Jane does other Thor stuff?

If Taika can do a 180 on Thor being the worst Avenger into the best Avenger, then he can do wonders with doing wonders with Portman. Let's hope she actually enjoys being on set!

With a female Thor, Shang Chi, Blade, Eternals Cast, Black Widow and all the tv shows, the alt right wont even know what to direct there hate towards.
Their heads must be spinning
Absolutely pumped for female Thor. Kind of wish it wasn't Natalie Portman, but I get why they went that direction. Can't wait!
Sigh ...
Thor was always the best Avenger.
"He's adopted."
Do people not remember things?

New news, new thread. I'm done now though, haha. Sorry!
She was fine being in Thor. She didn't care for how Hollywood (including Marvel) ignored women creative talent behind the camera. Patty Jenkins was being lined up to do Thor 2, which Portman pushed for, but when that fell through, she expressed a lot of frustration and anger. The influence of Ike Perlmutter and his Marvel creative committee (which also deserves a ton of blame for Age of Ultron) is ultimately where her frustrations seemed to have lied, since after that split within Marvel Studios, Feige has slowly-but-surely been enabling different voices within their output. Slow is the operative word, but Portman seems to be on-board for it.
I'm sure she's down with getting a superhero paycheque too, and not just one for a dull throwaway romantic lead.
Natalie Portman is the last person I want to be female Thor considering she slept through the first two Thor films but fucking hyped for female Thor in general.

Lmao, it's 5 in the morning here and I'm super hyped and tired at the same time.
I went from happy about this announcement to downright ready to skip the whole movie in seconds. What a rollercoaster. Zero interest in a film adaptation of Jane Thor starring Portman.
Tbf, I liked Thor 1's Thor. Mighty, jolly, and funny. Not sure if I even remember an interesting thing about Thor from Thor 2 : The Dark World and Whedon's take on him.
I mean, it's not like Chris Hemsworth raised the bar particularly high. She'll be fine in the role.
I'm guessing the same and Thor will be Hemsworth going forward since as someone else said pretty sure he signed a new deal to stick around
The thread title is confusing, is Jane Thor now and Thor is passing the torch or are they a tag team?
