Huge spoilers for Thor: Love and Thunder ahead!
Directed by Taika Waititi, Love and Thunder is the fourth solo adventure for Thor in the Marvel universe, bringing back Chris Hemsworth in the titular role. It also stars Natalie Portman, Tessa Thompson, and Christian Bale as the villain Gorr the God Butcher. The film features one mid-credits scene and one end-credits scene, which serve as continuation to the story.
One of the sequences in the film involves Thor, Valkyrie (Tessa), Jane (Natalie), and Korg (Taika) travel to Omnipotence City, requesting other Gods to form an army to stop the threat of Gorr.
But things take an ugly turn after the king of gods Zeus (Russell Crowe) refuses help and threatens to capture the heroes.
This leads to a fight which ends with Thor blasting Zeus’ own thunderbolt through his heart and seemingly killing me. Following this, Thor and the others take Zeus’ thunderbolt with them to help in their battle against Gorr.
