Christian Bales Gorr the God Butcher seems terrifying, I can not wait to see extra!
Thor: Love and Thunder only recently dropped their full trailer which gave us the primary have a look at a couple of new characters that we would not be too aware of except you are updated with the comics. I figured there is no higher time to correctly introduce you to a few of these key characters from the trailer that we’ll be getting our first introduction on this newest Thor movie.
Jane Fosters Mighty Thor

It was no secret that we might see Mighty Thor within the MCU, as director Taika Watiti introduced Natalie Portman’s return to the Thor franchise at San Diego’s comic-con again in 2019. We received a superb glimpse of her within the unique teaser launched a month in the past. Nevertheless, this newest trailer gave us a bit extra perception into how the connection between her and Thor shall be all through this movie. Within the comics, Jane is bestowed her energy after Thor is deemed unworthy to elevate Mjolnir, and Jane is by some means capable of make it to the moon the place it resides to turn out to be the brand new protector of Earth. Jane and Thor staff up together with her new energy to take down Malekith, who you would possibly keep in mind from Thor: The Darkish World.

Jane’s story although will get a bit tragic when it is found that Jane has been battling breast most cancers, and each time she transforms into Mighty Thor the results of her therapy for her most cancers are reversed. This could possibly be a plotline they observe within the movie as it has been 8 years 7 months and 6 days since Thor and Jane have seen one another. It will make sense as to why Taika was eager on bringing Jane again to the franchise as this storyline wouldn’t solely give a tragic twist to Jane’s return but in addition show her heroism as she is keen to save lots of others at the price of her well being. Cannot wait to see the way it all performs out.
Gorr the God Butcher
Disney/Marvel Studios
Taika Waititi was just lately quoted as saying “…in my humble opinion, we’ve got most likely one of the best villain that Marvel’s ever had in Christian Bale.” This is not something surprising for a director to say about his film’s villain however contemplating we all know simply how nice Christian Bale is as an actor it would not be a shock to see Bale ship an outstanding efficiency. His character’s Shakespearian backstory shall be attention-grabbing to see onscreen as his first look in 2012’s comedian ebook Thor: God of Thunder made him a fan favourite.
Disney/Marvel Studios
Gorr’s tragic historical past destroys his religion within the Gods and units him on the warpath for vengeance. After being exiled from his tribe for talking blasphemy towards the Gods, Gorr comes throughout a battle between what he believes to be two Gods and receives the symbiote necro-sword All Black after its earlier wielder Knull turned incapacitated. This newfound energy gave Gorr the energy he wanted to tackle the Gods and did so in a brutal vogue. Contemplating we received to see a chunk of the symbiote keep behind in Spiderman: No Manner House post-credits scene, I’m curious if the movie will give the sword the identical symbiote historical past it has within the comics, which might additional tie Venom to the MCU.
Zeus
Disney/Marvel Studios
His origin is simply as much like the Greek Mythology that his character is derived from; within the comics, the Olympians have fashioned alliances with not solely Asgardians however with the Eternals as properly. I can think about that there shall be an total assembly of the Gods throughout all pantheons and dimensions as Gorr is not prejudiced in his hunt for revenge. Russell Crowe appears to completely decide to enjoying this model of Zeus together with his spot-on accent and flamboyance; I am all for it.
Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder
Disney/Marvel Studios
These two fiercesome mystical goats are based mostly on the goats of Norse Mythology, Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr. Within the comics, they’ve helped Thor not solely by flying his chariot round by the totally different realms, however Thor tasked Toothgnasher to protect Mjolnir in one other dimension at one level. They’ve already made their debut within the animated sequence Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, nevertheless it’ll be good to see them now on the large display screen, crashing into what it seems wish to be Olympus within the trailers.
Uatu the Watcher
Disney/Marvel Studios
Now granted, he is not new to the MCU, however to this franchise, he can be. On this corridor the place Jane Foster’s Thor is elevating Mjolnir to the sky for an incredible lightning strike, we see a couple of Cosmic Entities which have had a big impact within the Marvel comics. Most notably, we see The Watcher, Uatu, who we received to see in What If …? make an look right here, which might foreshadow a cameo from him. Nevertheless, it would be wild in what context he can be within the film, but when any of those had been to play into the storyline, this could possibly be large. For me, it is a stretch. Nonetheless, contemplating we’ve got been launched to Uatu already and issues received undone in Dr. Unusual within the Multiverse of Insanity, it isn’t exterior the realm of chance to listen to Jeffrey Wright’s voice are available in for a post-credit scene to elucidate to Thor the specter of an incursion.
