Marvel has already cast his perfect Thor replacement according to strong MCU theory

Thor’s future in the MCU yet Thor: Love and Thunder is uncertain, but a new theory suggests that Marvel Studios may have already debuted the perfect replacement for the Asgardian God of Thunder. Chris Hemsworth has portrayed Thor since his eponymous solo movie in 2011, and has become one of the most important and central characters in the MCU since then. Despite being a founding member of the Avengers and one of the MCU’s longest-running heroes, Thor’s solo movies haven’t always done well, leaving the MCU’s next steps with him unclear.

Although the clock may be ticking for Chris Hemsworth’s Thor himself, there is still speculation about a possible Thor 5 was developed for the MCU. Although the movie has not yet been confirmed by Marvel Studios, Thor 5 Could compare to a potential replacement for Thor in the MCU, and while Brett Goldstein’s Greek god Hercules would be a formidable candidate, a new theory is a different idea. This would lead to perfection of Thor: Love and Thunder Polarizing storyline, and keep at least one Hemsworth in the MCU.

Chris Hemsworth’s future as Thor is unclear after Love and Thunder

Thor: Love and Thunder did not fare well with audiences and critics

Despite being the second-highest-grossing Thor Movie in the MCU, 2022 Thor: Love and Thunder was met with mixed reviews, with many considering it to be not only the weakest Thor project, but one of the weakest installments in the MCU as a whole. While these concerns aren’t shared by everyone, it could be enough to put Chris Hemsworth’s future as Thor in jeopardy, possibly ending Thor 5 Before it even begins. The only sign that Hemsworth will be returning to the MCU so far “Thor Will Return” moment at the end of Love and Thunder.

Director Taika Waititi and Hemsworth revealed that saw “Thor Will Return” It came as a surprise to them. This perhaps suggests that they had no idea that Thor’s story would continue yet Love and ThunderEven though the Phase 4 movie set up several storylines that would presumably include ThorSuch as his battle with Hercules, the debut of Valhalla and the resurrection of Gorr the god butcher’s daughter, Love, who was adopted by Thor. The latter has become the subject of a new theory, hinting that Hemsworth may not return as Thor.

Love could be the MCU’s Thor Girl: Theory explained

Tarene’s Thor Girl was first introduced to Marvel Comics in 2000

A new theory posed by Reddit User Responsible_Quiet686 suggests that Thor’s adoptive daughter, Love, could be the key to replacing the God of Thunder in the MCU. The theory notes that Love could be the MCU version of Tarene, an alien being from Marvel Comics who transforms into an Asgardian Goddess and assumes the moniker of Thor Girl. Tarene was first seen in 2000s Thor (Volume 2) #22And she becomes Thor’s ally and sidekick after helping the God of Thunder defeat Thanos, who waged war on her home world, chasing a prophecy.

Tarene was at the center of a prophecy in Marvel Comics suggesting that she would one day become a being known as the Designate. The Designate was destined to help evolve sentient beings to the next level of existence. This hasn’t happened in Marvel Comics yet, so it’s unclear what that might entail, however It teases Tarene as far more powerful than practically every other character in the Marvel Universe, just like Thor: Love and Thunder Love can beGiven her connection to the cosmic entity, eternity.

Thor: Love and Thunder’s Eternity debut could support the MCU theory

Love is resurrected by Eternity with new powers in Thor: Love & Thunder

Love, played by Chris Hemsworth’s own daughter, India Hemsworth, didn’t have any superpowers to speak of at the start of Thor: Love and ThunderAnd she died quickly because of the drought on her home world. This kick-starts her father’s war against the universe’s gods, leading him to eternity, where he plans to wish for all gods to be rendered extinct. instead, Thor convinces him to wish for love back, and Eternity grants the wish, resurrecting Gorr’s daughter, but it seems to come with a major twist.

Instead of just bringing love back to life, eternity appears to become love in Thor: Love and ThunderAs her form can be seen with the same star design as eternity itself. This means that Love could easily take Tarene’s place as a prophesied all-powerful being, and could even have the ability to grant herself extra abilities, just like how Tarene transforms into the Asgardian Thor Girl. Love’s connection to Eternity supports the theory that the young hero could be primed to replace Thor in the MCUAnd one upcoming team may provide the explanation how to.

MCU’s Young Avengers could get a huge power boost with love on the team

Marvel Studios has established the Young Avengers in recent years

While there were a number of young heroes in the MCU before Phase 4, the beginning of the multiverse saga saw a huge increase in the number of teenage superheroes in action. This led to theories that the MCU’s Young Avengers team was teased, and 2023 The Marvels Seemed to finally confirm the team’s formation. While Only Kamala Khan’s Ms. Marvel, Kate Bishop’s Hawkeye and Cassie Lang’s Stature have been teased to be Young AvengersLove, perhaps as Thor Girl, would make a formidable asset to the team.

Currently, there is no word on when the Young Avengers might come together in the MCU. There was speculation of a possible Young Avengers movie, or the team is possibly included in a still unconfirmed Ms. Marvel Season 2. It is possible that the team could also form in 2026 Avengers: Doomsday And secret warsWhich might be the perfect place to officially replace Thor with Thor Girl. Love of Thor: Love and ThunderWith her incredible untapped abilities, would make the best replacement for Thor, and would surely continue his fantastic legacy.
