Karl Urban stars opposite the current Thor , Chris Hemsworth , inThor : Ragnarok , but he is back the idea of a distaff Thor require over as the MCU moves ahead . Hemsworth is about to found the destruction of hisThortrilogy , and will do so in a very unlike way than it began . Instead of the Shakespearian approach of the first films , conductor Taika Waititi work with Hemsworth and the studio apartment to bring a new look and tone to the enfranchisement forRagnarok . Based on the former reviews , it appears the change will work to nifty effect as this trilogy comes to a close .

Monkeys Fighting Robotsspoke to Urban during the closet tour forRagnarokand asked him about the potential drop of getting female Thor in the future . Urban admitted he is not conversant with the comic strip so he has no knowledge about the likely storyline that such a change could bring , but he says it is a move that is overdue .

I think it ’s time . I believe it ’s well delinquent , absolutely . I ’d like to see that flick , why not .

In the comics , Jane Foster took on the mantle once Thor Odinson was found to no longer be desirable of wielding Mjolnir . The heroic turn was an exciting one for the character to make , particularly as she has battle genus Cancer during her tenure . If Marvel does go down this path , it would mark a self-aggrandising return for Natalie Portman , or bespeak the studio apartment recasting the role . Portman has previously stated thatshe was done with the MCUbutthen appear to be undecided to a return . Ragnarokwill explain why Thor and Jane are on a respite , so it looks as though Jane is not in the studios ' plans , unless they ’re just keeping her out of sight for a big return .

That all order , Jane Foster may not be the only prospect to take over . Tessa Thompson ’s Valkyrie is being arrange up to be a potentially major part inRagnarok , and is evensomeone that may restrain Thor . If he was to die inInfinity War , it would not be sick to think Valkyrie could be deemed worthy to post on . As a matter of fact , her becoming the " new Thor " could give the studio apartment further reason topair her up with several other MCU heroine in their own movie .
