The most famous superhero of the fantastic Marvel Cinematic Universe is Mighty Thor. This character is borrowed from the Germanic-Scandinavian mythology, in which Thor is the God of thunder and lightning and the son of Odin, the creator of worlds. In the comics, the name Thor is taken by Jane Foster - the beloved of the God of Thunder. The story of how a girl gained superpowers and became worthy of the Thor hammer was included in the script for the film "Thor: Love and Thunder", which is scheduled to be released in Russia on May 5, 2022. This is a sequel to the popular film about Thor and his adventures. The last movie released on the list was Thor: Ragnarok, which received high marks and rave reviews not only from fans but also from film critics around the world.
Movie release date
After watching the third and rather successful part about one of the heroes protecting our world from danger, many viewers ask themselves a completely logical question - when will the sequel be filmed? It is worth noting that the release date of "Thor 4: Love and Thunder" has already been scheduled - May 6, 2022.
Plot
The original comics describe how Jane Foster acquired superpowers. This happened during the heroine's struggle with cancer. Hammer Mjolnir helped the girl stay alive and endowed her with powerful abilities. However, in Thor: Ragnarok, Mjolnir was completely destroyed, although the metal it was made of appears to have remained on Earth. It is possible that the pieces will be reassembled and Jane Foster can be empowered by Thor after she lifts the hammer.
Director and filming
Quirky indie director Taika Waititi (Real Ghouls, Ghoul Hunt, Eagle vs. Shark, What We Do in the Shadows) helped the Thor franchise get out of depression with colorful, fun storytelling. It is he who will become the screenwriter and also the director of the 4th part.
The script is based on the Mighty Thor comics by Jason Aaron. Produced by Kevin Feige (X-Men, Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Avengers: Endgame).
Actors and roles
At the moment, only the main characters of the film and those who will play them are known:
- Natalie Portman as Jane Foster / Thor (Leon, Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace, V for Vendetta, Black Swan, Annihilation, Vox Deluxe);
- Chris Hemsworth as Thor (Race, The Avengers, Vacation, In the Heart of the Sea, The Cavalry, Nothing Good at El Royale, Men in Black: International);
- Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie (Creed: The Rocky Legacy, BoJack Horseman, Grey's Anatomy, Veronica Mars, Annihilation, Sorry to Bother, Men in Black: International);
- Jose Alfredo Fernandez as SHIELD agent (Ozark, Pretense, Lodge 49, Cobra Kai).
Interesting Facts
- Natalie Portman worked hard to prepare for the role: for example, in her Instagram account, the actress posted a snapshot with several comics, which she began to study in order to better enter the role.
- Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige recently spoke about the upcoming film: “This is a very large tape that will have a lot of different details that are quite important for the entire studio. This was conveyed to us by Taika Waititi, and we completely agreed. We liked. We called Natalie Portman because she is part of the MCU family and their reunion with Taika happened. There was one meeting and she accepted the role. "
- It is not known whether Marvel will want to set a release date for Thor: 5. Perhaps it will depend on the fees of the fourth part.
- At Comic-Con 2019, Natalie Portman joked that she was always plagued by hammer envy.
- Actress Tessa Thompson said that her character "must first find her queen." Is this a hint of the appearance of an LGBT character in the tape?
