Bold Theory Claims the MCU Has Already Introduced the New Thor—And It’s Not Jane Foster

When Thor: Love and Thunder was released, expectations were sky-high. With Taika Waititi directing—following his success with Ragnarok—Jane Foster returning, and Christian Bale set to play Gorr, one of Thor’s most formidable enemies, it seemed like a winning formula. However, the film turned out to be a disappointment, failing to deliver a coherent story and diminishing the impact of both Jane’s return and Gorr’s debut. Thor ended up as the only Avenger with four solo movies that had little overall significance.

As speculation grows about a potential fifth Thor film, it remains uncertain how Marvel will proceed. In the meantime, with limited information available, theories abound. One intriguing theory suggests that the MCU has already introduced the new Thor—and it’s not Jane Foster, contrary to what many might have expected.

The theory we’re about to discuss comes from Reddit user Responsible_Quiet686, who shared it on the platform. Here’s the theory:

Love (Gorr’s resurrected daughter) could be the MCU’s version of Tarene a.k.a. Thor Girl

Although this theory isn’t thoroughly explained, it’s quite intriguing. It references Thor: Love and Thunder, specifically focusing on Gorr’s resurrected daughter, Love, played by India Hemsworth, Chris’s real-life daughter. At the film’s conclusion, we see Thor taking care of Love and the two fighting together. According to the theory, this scene hints that Love might become the next Thor in future MCU projects. For now, it stands as a speculative but intriguing idea. So, how have fans reacted to this theory?

They’re clearly setting up young Avengers. We have Kate Bishop, Yelena Belova, Ironheart, Skaar, Wiccan (upcoming), Isaiah Bradley’s grandson, Shuri/T’Challa II and Love.

Or they could ignore the events of Love and Thunder entirely.

Yeah, let’s do that.

Just hope they don’t ignore her in future films.

Like, I think it makes sense that Thor have a daughter right now.

Maybe they can make her grown off-screen and be more adult.

Love could certainly be on the Young Avengers.
