Chris Hemsworth, who has portrayed Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), has expressed uncertainty about the future of his character in a potential Thor 5. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Hemsworth mentioned that he is always in conversation about the future of Thor but nothing official has been confirmed yet. He affirmed that he would come back if the fans wanted to see him, but he would like to ensure that any additional appearances are creatively justified.
Hemsworth has played the role of Thor in four solo movies, the most for any character in the MCU. He has also appeared as Thor in the Avengers movies. Although he is open to making a comeback as Thor, Hemsworth does not want to overdo his portrayal of the character. He is eager to reinvent his character again, as he has done it in the past, but only if he believes that it would be exciting and fun for the audience.
Reinventing Thor
Hemsworth has enjoyed reinventing the character of Thor multiple times and is looking forward to doing it again with the right script. He wants to avoid playing the character to the point where people are exhausted and roll their eyes when they see him on screen. He wants to keep the character unpredictable, and he believes that reinventing Thor is the best way to do that.
Hemsworth’s remarks about reinventing Thor are likely referring to the transition from Thor: The Dark World to Thor: Ragnarok. The latter saw Thor become a more humorous character, thanks in part to director Taika Waititi’s influence. Hemsworth has also spoken about how much fun he had filming Thor: Love and Thunder, to the point where he cringes watching the film.
The Future of the MCU
Hemsworth is not the only MCU actor to talk about potentially leaving their role. Tom Holland, who plays Spider-Man, has also mentioned that he is considering walking away and letting someone else play the character. Hemsworth acknowledges that there might be waning enthusiasm from fans about him returning to play Thor again.
