Thor’s hammer was destroyed in Thor: Ragnarork but it reappeared in Avengers: Endgame. So is there any possibility that Thor and Mjolnir will reunite in Thor: Love and Thunder?
Thor played by Chris Hemsworth is one of the strongest and most loved characters from the Marvel Universe. Thor Odinson is expected to reunite with his old weapon gifted to him by his father. The beloved hammer of Thor, Mjolnir is said to reappear in Thor: Love and Thunder. God may be seen using his old hammer in the new movie. Thor and his hammer were inseparable and are just perfect together. Mjolnir was destroyed by his sister Hela in Thor: Ragnarork and he was obviously heartbroken.
A Reunion Between Thor and Mjolnir
Though he moved on and wielded the Stormbreaker in Avengers: Infinity war the old hammer doesn’t seem to leave him. It was brought back by him in Avengers: Endgame. Captain America lifted the hammer in Endgame and fought marvelously with it. But it is expected that Thor: Love and Thunder will show some action with Mjolnir. Jane Foster is announced to become Mighty Thor and the need for Mjolnir is clear now. Natalie Portman has even confirmed she will wield the hammer.
However, there has been a video of Chris Hemsworth’s stunt double practicing and playing around with the hammer. The talks now are that Thor Odinson will also use Mjolnir in Thor: Love and Thunder. Thor and his weapon have been quite a crazy story. It is really messy with Thor and his weapon of choice. He gets Mjolnir and then loses it and then makes the StormBreaker. And now Thor and Mjolnir’s reunion in Thor: Love and Thunder could really be the opportunity for the writers to clear things up.
The thunder god could finally decide to pass on the mighty weapon to Jane Foster’s Mighty Thor. He has been proved worthy ample of times and now it could be the chance for Jane to take on. Thor also looks comfortable and equally connected with his new weapon so it could be time for him to move on. There are also talks that Thor 4 might not be a story with Thor Odinson in focus and it could concentrate more on Jane Foster and her journey to Mighty Thor. Gorr the God Butcher has officially been declared the evil counterpart in Thor: Love and Thunder.
Thor and Gorr have fought many times in the comics. It can happen so that we can see Thor using Mjolnir in flashbacks or memories in the past. The role of Mjolnir in Thor: Love and Thunder is still a big mystery. However, it is pretty clear that we will see the hammer once again. But the way it is scripted in the story or who will use it is still a question to be answered in the due course of time.
