Natalie Portman Reacts to Thor 4 Post-Credits Scene Surprise

Natalie Portman’s return as Jane Foster was easily one of the most anticipated parts of Thor: Love and Thunder for many viewers. The introduction of Mighty Thor proved to be a fantastic addition to the movie, which the actress clearly had a lot of fun with. As exciting as it all was, fans were struck with tragedy before the movie ended: her cancer caught up with her.

After her death, the next time viewers see her is when her soul arrives in Valhalla, where she is greeted by none other than Idris Elba’s Heimdall.  So is this the end of her character, or could she pop up again down the line?

Portman herself has previously noted that she is “open to anything,” so if the opportunity presented itself, she seems to be game.

Now, the actress has once again spoken about her MCU fate, and more specifically, about that post-credits scene surprise.

Jane Reaching Valhalla in Love and Thunder

What’s Natalie Portman’s MCU Future?

The movie showed Jane Foster entering Valhalla for a reason. For those who know the character in the comics, she did end up dying because of her cancer—though, she was resurrected by Thor and Odin before stepping through the gates of the promised land.

While that clearly didn’t happen here, Jane does eventually go on to become a Valkyrie, which still remains her current mantle in the pages of the source material. Given the sisterhood showcased between her and Tessa Thompson’s character in the movie and all the teases of how lonely the King of Asgard is, it seems this future for Natalie Portman is inevitable.

But what will she do in the meantime? Maybe Tom Hiddleston’s Loki, the original Earth-616 one, is chilling in the halls of Valhalla—the two catching up could make quite an entertaining scene.
