Thor: Love and Thunder – next round of the MCU
After the success of Thor: Ragnarok (more than $853 million in box office receipts), filmmaker Taika Waititi returned behind the camera to set the scene Thor: Love and Thunder. A brand new story that will be a bit special since Thor (Chris Hemsworth) will no longer be the god of thunder.

Gorr then embarks on a vengeful mission through which he wants to erase the gods from the surface of the universe. All the gods together. Gorr then becomes a credible and dangerous threat for the Asgardian gods, for the gods of Olympus or even for the Egyptian gods, to name but a few. His most powerful weapon is the Necrosword swordwhich according to Galactus, was carved at the first dawn of the universe in a stone of endless night.
