![]() ![]() ![]() Unlike in the movies, Marvel comics have played with the idea of multiple beings being able to wield Thor’s hammer Mjölnir meanwhile, only Captain America and Vision have been able to lift Mjölnir onscreen. The question at the heart of this story: How can Jane Foster be Thor if Thor already exists? How Jane Foster became Mighty Thor in Marvel’s comic books What we do know is that Marvel’s comic books have set a precedent for a woman taking up the Thor title, and it could help give us clues about what Love and Thunder will hold for Jane Foster and the rest of the cast. Add to that the reveal that Foster is going to lift Mjölnir ( Portman posed with the mythical hammer at SDCC) and wield the powers of the Asgardian stormcaller, and it raises even more questions as to what Portman will be doing in Love and Thunder, along with Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson, and director Taika Waititi. It was thought that Portman was done with the MCU, making this news a huge surprise. While Foster never technically left the universe there are a few lines about how she’s off being a scientist ( Avengers: Age of Ultron), or that she and Thor broke up ( Thor: Ragnarok), to explain why she didn’t appear. Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster, last properly featured in 2013’s Thor: The Dark World, will return in 2021’s Thor: Love and Thunder, and will have the thunder god’s powers. But arguably the biggest surprise involved how one returning character will tilt the axis of power in the MCU. The studio revealed during its lengthy panel that new characters will enter the MCU ( including a vampire-slaying daywalker), and familiar ones will be return for new adventures. Marvel took over San Diego Comic-Con this year with a glimpse into what’s called Phase 4 of its gigantic Marvel Cinematic Universe enterprise, the studio’s upcoming slate of movies and television shows for the next few years. ![]()
