Natalie Portman's Mighty Thor is armored up and ready to fight in a new Thor: Love and Thunder image. The Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel marks the first major appearance of Portman's Jane Foster since Thor: The Dark World, with the actress having elected to depart due to disinterest in her character's arc. With Taika Waititi at the helm for the recent Thor movies, the star was ultimately convinced to come back for the rom-com-influenced superhero sequel.
Thor: Love and Thunder sees Chris Hemsworth's titular hero going on a journey of self-discovery by retiring from the superhero business, only to be drawn back when Christian Bale's Gorr the God Butcher emerges with the plan to kill all gods.

Thor: Love and Thunder is gearing up to release in July and audiences are getting an exciting new look at the film.
