Comic-Con: Thor: Love and Thunder Brings Back Natalie Portman! At today’s Marvel Studios Comic-Con panel it was officially confirmed that Taika Waititi is indeed returning to direct Thor 4, the followup to his wildly successful 2017 sequel Thor: Ragnarok! But that’s not all!
The film will be titled Thor: Love and Thunder, and will see the return of Natalie Portman as Jane Foster…
The female Thor storyline is based on Jason Aaron’s run on “The Mighty Thor” in which a cancer-stricken Jane Foster takes up the mantle and powers of Thor.
Thor: Ragnarok was a hit with critics and fans alike, taking the franchise in a more overtly comedic direction to the tune of over $854 million worldwide.
