A new video sees Natalie Portman surprise fans before a Thor: Love and Thunder screening. Thor's latest adventure sees the God of Thunder facing off against a new villain, Gorr the God Butcher, while also rekindling his romance with Jane Foster. Director Taika Waititi is back at the helm after also directing 2017's Thor: Ragnarok, which saw the often serious Thor in a more comedic and brightly colored light than MCU audiences had seen before. Love and Thunder again utilizes Waititi's unique sensibilities to take Thor on a humorous journey, which also ventures into emotionally hard-hitting territory.
Chris Hemsworth is back as Thor along with some other familiar faces, like Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, Waititi as Korg, Jaimie Alexander as Sif, and the Guardians of the Galaxy, which includes Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Bradley Cooper, and Vin Diesel. The film also introduces some new characters, with Russell Crowe playing Zeus and Christian Bale taking on the role of the movie's central antagonist Gorr. While the cast is impressive, many viewers have eagerly awaited Portman's return, who reprises her role as Jane Foster, which she originally played in 2011's Thor and 2013's Thor: The Dark World. The trailers for Love and Thunder have featured Jane taking on the mantle of Thor, pulling from a popular comic book storyline that has audiences eager to see Portman back after sitting out for Thor: Ragnarok.
