1. Chris Hemsworth, our OG Avenger is back as Thor!

The last time Thor appeared in “Avengers: Endgame,” he was experiencing an existential crisis, having recently suffered a series of brutal blows.  In Thor: Love and Thunder, he is on an emotional journey to find himself, yet he takes on evil like the most powerful avenger and his outstanding comic timing is worth it!

2. Christian Bale is mind-blowing as Gorr, the God Butcher 

Gorr, the God Butcher, wages war on the gods, killing them one by one in a carefully plotted course headed straight for New Asgard. Thor has faced off against countless enemies — from Laufey, King of the Frost Giants, to his sister Hela, the Goddess of Death, to Thanos, the Mad Titan — but filmmakers have chosen to raise the stakes even higher in Thor: Love and Thunder with the entry of Christian Bale as the evil God and like everything Bale does, he crushed it!

3. Love takes center stage with Jane Foster’s entry 

Natalie Portman, who portrayed Jane Foster in 2011’s “Thor” and 2013’s “Thor: The Dark World,” returns to MCU with bigger twists and the eventual breakup of the ultimate love story of Jane and Thor’s relationship, allowing both Hemsworth and Portman to showcase their comedic chops.

4. Tessa Thompson rules as King Valkyrie

As the last surviving Valkyrie, she reunites with Thor to take on the God Butcher. She brings the perfect comic timing to the mind-bending action in the film. Tessa’s character brings out the queer, making it a fantastic representation in the series.

5. 80s Rock and Score by Michael Giacchino and Nami Melumad Set the Stage

Thor: Love and Thunder simply rocks with songs from Guns N’ Roses and a score from Michael Giacchino and Nami Melumad. According to the Producer Brad Winderbaum, the movie is a metal album. The film’s soundtrack features a range of music hand-selected to highlight story shifts, and it includes more than one hit from Guns N’ Roses, the American hard rock band that Rolling Stone called “the most dangerous band in Los Angeles.”
