First Look: FINALLY! The Trailer For “Thor: Love & Thunder” Is Here

After months of waiting, the trailer for Thor Love and Thunder is finally here. Check out the poster for the film below:

The fourth film in the “Thor” series is directed by Taika Waititi, who helmed the well-received “Thor: Ragnarok.” The movie follows on the heels of “Avengers: Endgame,” which ended with Thor Odinson (Chris Hemsworth), adrift after the fall of his kingdom Asgard, leaving Earth with the Guardians of the Galaxy. The teaser begins with him as a member of the group, with Chris Pratt, Pom Klementieff, Dave Bautista, Karen Gillan and Vin Diesel set to reprise their roles. Previous MCU actors Tessa Thompson, Jaimie Alexander, Sean Gunn, Jeff Goldblum and Waititi himself — as the rock gladiator Korg — will also return for the film, but the biggest moment of the teaser comes in the final seconds, when Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster is revealed as the new Mighty Thor.

Portman has mysterious been missing from the MCU since Thor The Dark World.

Set to Guns ‘N Roses’ “Sweet Child ‘O Mine,” the trailer begins with Thor on a quest of self-discovery. “These hands were once used for battle, now they’re but humble tools for peace,” he says as he puts aside his new hammer Stormbreaker and watches an intergalactic sunset. “Now I need to figure out exactly who I am.”

Waititi said previously if you loved the comedy of Ragnarok you will be in for a treat with Love and Thunder.

The story of “Love and Thunder” is based on Jason Aaron’s critically-acclaimed run on the comic book “The Mighty Thor,” which saw Jane Foster, who dated and broke up with Thor, take up the superhero’s mantle after the sacred hammer Mjolnir deemed the Odinson unworthy and stripped him of his powers. In the comics, however, Foster’s newfound power-up comes at a heavy cost: Every time she uses the hammer, her breast cancer becomes worse and worse. It’s unclear whether the movie will follow the same storyline, though.

“Thor: Love and Thunder” premieres in theater July 8.
