In the mid-credits scene, Zeus (Russell Crowe) is lamenting his defeat at Thor’s hands to his assembled admirers. He’s teaching her how to live.Īnd they call themselves, fittingly, Love and Thunder.īut not everyone is on board with this happy ending.Īs Thor: Love and Thunder established, every type of mythology - Greek, Norse, Wakandan, even Pixar’s Bao - and all of the deities that people worship are real. They’re protecting people who cannot protect themselves. Our beloved demigod is zipping across the universe with his adopted god daughter (quite literally, she’s a goddess).

In the last minutes of the movie, we see Thor make good on that oath. Thor (Chris Hemsworth), as a promise to both the dying Jane and the dying Gorr, tells them that he will take care of Gorr’s daughter, love her and won’t let her be alone. Inspired by how she gave up her own life for Asgard and the rest of the universe, Gorr asks Eternity to bring his daughter back from the dead (in the movie’s opening scene, she dies from starvation and exhaustion). Before dying, astrophysicist turned thunder goddess Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) pleads with him to choose good over evil, humanity over destruction. Mortally defeated, Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale) had one last wish - courtesy of an omnipotent being named Eternity - to either destroy the universe or choose love. After a lot of joy and loss, Thor: Love and Thunder left our space viking in a relatively happy place.
