Concept art from Thor: Love and Thunder has a surprising connection to Captain America. Ahead of its release in July, Thor: Love and Thunder was one of the MCU's most exciting upcoming films. It promised the returns of fan-favorite characters like Natalie Portman's Jane Foster, this time taking up the mantle of Mighty Thor. While successful at the box office, Thor: Love and Thunderreceived a mixed response from critics and audiences, especially compared to its predecessor Thor: Ragnarok, widely considered one of Marvel's strongest films. Still, aspects of Thor: Love and Thunder were praised, including the actors' performances and comedic moments.
As is customary for any MCU project after release, the artists who worked on the filmhave begun sharing concept art from early on in the production. So far, it's provided a look at alternative character designs and costumes considered for Thor: Love and Thunder, including a Gorr who was more comics-accurate than what's seen in the final movie. Other art revealed a cut Lady Sif scene where she explores an ice planet before her battle with Gorr. In the film itself, audiences see Sif only briefly. Concept art provides a fascinating look at how movies, particularly big-budget superhero features, evolve throughout the production process.
