Christian Bale will portray the villain Gorr the God Butcher in the highly-anticipated movie.

This is the fourth film in the Thor franchise.

Taika Waititi previously revealed, "When we were shooting Ragnarok, I was reading one storyline by Jason Aaron, called THE MIGHTY THOR. And for those of you that don't know that storyline, it's incredible and full of emotion and love and thunder. And it introduces, for the first time, a female Thor,” confirming that Jane Foster, played by Portman, will become the Mighty Thor, Goddess of Thunder.

For all you Thor fans, ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ will get a theatrical release on May 6, 2022.
