Which characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe have lifted Thor ’s pound ? Before it was demolish inThor : Ragnarok , the God of Thunder ’s enchanted hammer Mjolnir was arguably the most notable arm in the MCU.“Whosoever oblige this hammer , if hebe suitable , shall possess the exponent of Thor"is the enchantment Odin placed on Mjolnir , so it ’s easy to call up only Thor was capable to maintain it but a few others in the MCU have also been deemed worthy by the mighty hammer .

The MCU began with 2008’sIron Manand at first , displays of superpowers were based in science ( Steve Rogers and Bruce Banner benefit their powers from scientific experiments ) . 2011’sThorintroduced magic into the MCU , though the flick was quick to point out that the Asgardians ' abilities were actually more like ripe crack - science identical from magic ( untilDoctor Strangeintroduced actual sorcery in 2015 ) . Mjolnir ’s descent is also by rights mythic : at Odin ’s request , Mjolnir was mould of the special alloy Uru in the heart of a dying star by the midget of Nidavellir .

Whether it was power by top-notch - scientific discipline or by magic , the iconic Mjolnir had no adequate and it was certainly one of the greatest weapons in the MCU . It was also fun at parties ; inAvengers : Age of Ultron , Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes ' bantering about the rules of who was " worthy " to lift it and then playing a game of actually endeavor to heft up Mjolnir endeared his human friends to Thor . “You’re all not worthy,“the God of Thunder mocked his champion and it ’s notable who entirely failed to lift the pounding , including Tony Stark , James Rhodes , Clint Barton , and Pietro Romanoff . Even the Hulk could n’t budge Mjolnir at all when he fought Thor inThe Avengers . When Thor left the hammer on Loki ’s chest , the God of Mischief was also totally pinned to the ground , turn up he ’s not at all suitable to raise Mjolnir .

WhenHela destroy Mjolnir inRagnarok , the loss of his hammer hurt Thor as if he ’d lost an sometime friend . As Korg succinctly phrase it,“Sounds like you had a pretty especial , knowledgeable relationship with this hammer and that lose it was almost comparable to lose a loved one . “While Thor and his mighty hammer did indeed share a special bond , here are the others in the MCU who Mjolnir also deem suitable to swipe it :

Thor

Of course , Thor is worthy to manage Mjolnir - except for the time he was n’t . InThor , the Odinson ’s hubris angered the Allfather and caused Odin to banish his Word to Midgard ( Earth ) . Both Thor and Mjolnir wreck - land in New Mexico where the hammer total under the self-command of S.H.I.E.L.D. Meanwhile , Thor met Jane Foster and her booster , accrue in love with her , and had to learn humility so as to regain his divine powers in time to terminate the Destroyer - and this included becoming worthy once more to handle Mjolnir . Since then , Thor and Mjolnir were inseparable until Hela destroyed the hammer inThor : Ragnarok .

Mjolnir allowed Thor to carry his unconditioned powers as the God of Thunder . With it , Thor could draw rein lightning , moderate the atmospheric condition , flee through space , and when bemuse , the hammer would always return to Thor ’s hand . For a retentive time , Thor mistakenly believed most of his powers came from Mjolnir and it was only after the hammer was gone that Thor come to empathize his power came from within and Mjolnir was merely a means to focus it . Thor has since interchange Mjolnir with theStormbreaker ax(his Thanos - killing weapon ) but it stay on to be see if there might be a way for Thor to be reunite with a restored Mjolnir once more .

Odin

As the Allfather and ruler of Asgard , Odin Borson is of course worthy to wield Mjolnir . It was Odin who commissioned theDwarves of Nidavellirto forge the malleus in the first place . " As a weapon to destruct or as a shaft to build . It is a fitting comrade for a king,“Odin decreed of Mjolnir . Odin also exhibited the ability to command Mjolnir and he essentially say it to deem Thor unworthy when he strip his son of his power and exiled them both to Midgard . The pound was Odin ’s endowment to Thor and the one - eyed quondam king was also the cause of the captivation place upon Mjolnir about worthiness so that Thor would have to earn the right to wield Mjolnir . Perhaps the Allfather tot the " worthiness article " because Mjolnir originally did n’t belong to Thor but to his firstborn daughter Hela …

Hela

Hela was Odin ’s eldest , the Asgardian Goddess of Death , and the original wielder of Mjolnir . Millennia ago , before Odin imprisoned Hela in Hel , Allfather and daughter conquered the Nine Realms together . In their sanguinary campaigns , they plunder the Nine Realms and the amber they took was used to build the majestic castle of Asgard . However , Odin grow aweary of warfare and want to rein as a eleemosynary king but Hela did n’t desire to stop at a bare Nine Realms and wished to conquer the rest of the cosmos . Odin not only imprisoned Hela , but he also made sure her existence was written out of Asgard ’s account - until she returned inThor : Ragnarok . AfterOdin ’s expiry , one of the first things Hela did when she met Thor and Loki for the first time was easily destroy Mjolnir , her old weapon .

Vision

Vision was probably the most surprising being who raise well adequate to of lifting and wield Thor ’s power hammer . An android earlier construct by Ultron as   a " perfect vision " of his evolved manikin , Vision was made fromVibranium stolen from Wakandain the rocker designed by Dr. Helen Cho ,   given thought by the artificial intelligence of J.A.R.V.I.S. with a mixture of memory memory trace from Tony Stark , Bruce Banner , and Ultron , and he was power by theMind Stone .

Thor used Mjolnir ’s lightning to land Vision to life-time inAge of Ultronand in the debate that followed about whether Vision was a unexampled foe to the Avengers or not , the android picked up Mjolnir and give it back to Thor , which deemed him suitable of Thor and the other heroes ' trust . In the Battle of Sokovia , Vision not only used Mjolnir against the Ultron drones , but he also remarked that the hammer was"terribly well - balanced " , to which Thor replied,“Well , if there ’s too much weight , you suffer force on the swing music . "

Captain America

You would remember that of any human alive , Steve Rogers would be the one Thor ’s hammer would deem worthy to lift it and Mjolnir agreedever so slightly . Of course , for years , Captain America carried his own iconic weapon , his Vibranium shell that often wreak in tandem bicycle with Thor ’s hammer to create combination vibration plan of attack . However , at the Avengers ' party inAge of Ultron , it was time for Steve Rogers to test his worthiness and the Super Soldier tried his very good to annul Mjolnir . The fact that the hammer actually budge just a tiny snatch visibly disturbed Thor , but he was shortly relieved that his own worthiness as the only Avenger who could lift Mjolnir was reaffirm - until Vision came along .

A Coat Hook

At the end ofAge of Ultron , Thor , Steve Rogers , and Tony Stark joked around about sneak Thor ’s hammer and argue whether an lift could lift it . Thor did n’t mention that month before , an ordinary household item was somehow worthy enough to lift Mjolnir : inThor : The Dark World , Thor politely hung his hammer on a coating sweetener when he move into Jane Foster ’s London flat . This was one of the lowkey funniest moments inThor 2 , not just because Thor thoughtfully displayed human etiquette during his first clock time visiting his girl ’s apartment but also because the coat hook did n’t like a shot dampen and get off Mjolnir crash into the trading floor . Therefore , a coat hook shew suitable of lifting Mjolnir !

Could Groot Lift Thor’s Hammer?

Would Groot have been desirable to lift Mjolnir ? Thor ’s hammer was long demolish by the time the God of Thunder pluck up with the Guardians of the Galaxy and contribute Rocket and Groot to Nidavellir to forge Stormbreaker inAvengers : Infinity War . The grip of the Thanos - killing magical axe is really made from the Grant Wood of Groot ’s own arm and the adolescent tree had   no problem face-lift Stormbreaker . However , Stormbreaker has no enchantment place upon it about worthiness so probably anyone could wield it . Mjolnir did n’t recall Steve Rogers was worthy but maybe it would have choose the pure - hearted Groot ( despite his rebellious potty backtalk ) .
