Natalie Portman Is Returning To The MCU To Play Jane Foster Thor
(GameSpot Xbox 360 News)
 


It turns out that sort of out-of-place Natalie Portman cameo in Avengers: Endgame was a little more important than anyone could have guessed. The actor, who hasn`t played a major role in any MCU movie since 2013`s Thor: The Dark World, will be making a return to the MCU to reprise her role as Jane Foster in Thor: Love And Thunder--with one major caveat: she`ll be wielding Mjolnir.Director Taika Waititi took the stage at San Diego Comic-Con during the massive Marvel Studios panel to surprise fans. Moderator Jessica Chobot prompted Waititi with a question about what comic book storylines had inspired him, which Waititi was quick to answer. `When we were shooting Ragnarok, I was reading Jason Aaron`s Mighty Thor, and it introduces female Thor [Jane Foster]. So, there`s only one person who can do that.`Natalie Portman herself then took the stage to massive applause, before being handed her own replica Mjolnir to really drive Jane`s new MCU status quo home.`This feels pretty good,` Portman laughed, `I`ve always had a little hammer envy.`Jane`s turn as Thor came after Thor Odinson was rendered unworthy by a cosmically aware Nick Fury (don`t ask), who confirmed that a villain named Gor the God Butcher, who believed all gods in the universe were fundamentally horrible and wrong, was `right.` By whispering that simple phrase: `Gor was right,` Thor found himself experiencing such a crisis of confidence that he could no longer lift Mjolnir.Thankfully, Mjolnir`s powers have some strings attached, if you remember its inscription--`Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.` During Thor`s crisis, Jane, who had actually been battling fatal cancer, was able to lift the hammer and become imbued with the powers. As a deity, Jane`s cancer was also `cured,` but only while she was in her Thor form, creating a dangerous catch-22 when she would revert back to her mortal self.It`s unclear what the set up for Jane`s transformation in the MCU will act ...
