In this post-Endgame world, the Thor series is breaking new ground for Marvel as The Odinson becomes the first hero to be granted four solo films. Thanks to a ton of new details spewing from the hype factory that is San Diego Comic-Con, we know a little more about what to expect from the upcoming Thor 4.
If you're a little behind on your Thor lore, let's get you up to speed. In 2017, under the direction of Taika Waititi, Ragnarok sprung into theaters. The movie chronicled Thor's attempts to save Asgard from his conniving and powerful sister Hela — along with his struggle to escape from the garbage planet Sakaar with Loki and Bruce Banner.
By introducing new characters like Valkyrie — along with everybody's favorite alien bros Korg and Miek …
… and injecting a much-needed dose of whimsy into the Thor series, Ragnarok became a welcome addition to the MCU, receiving rave reviews and crushing the box office.
Recognizing that the only way to save his home is to let it be destroyed, he finally takes his place as king as he shepherds his citizens into space, charting a course for a new home on Earth. Tragically, that's where Thanos comes in, leaving half of the Asgardian refugees dead in his quest for the Infinity Stones as Avengers: Infinity War begins.
A devastated Thor survives Thanos' final snap, leaving him to spend Endgame seeking justice and revenge for those he's lost. When Thanos is at last defeated, Thor is one of the only original Avengers left standing. Ultimately, he ends up joining the Guardians of the Galaxy to fight evil throughout the universe, leaving his right-hand woman, Valkyrie, in charge of the recently-founded Norwegian territory of New Asgard. All of this has set the stage for what's to come in the next Thor movie.
After the success of Thor: Ragnarok, it makes sense that Marvel would want director Taika Waititi to return for Thor 4, considering the acclaim that Waititi's irreverent and dry comedic sensibilities garnered for Ragnarok. By taking one of Marvel's most serious and austere superheroes and making him and his surrounding cast totally accessible and even fun, Waititi immediately left a mark on the franchise and made himself indispensable as a fresh voice in the MCU.
