Chris Hemsworth has shared an interesting update about Thor’s role in Avengers: Doomsday.

What did Chris Hemsworth say about Avengers: Doomsday and Thor?
Speaking with BroBible, Hemsworth addressed how Thor’s role has changed in every film that he’s appeared in. After reflecting on the character journey in the MCU for the past 15 years, Hemsworth then provided a tease as to how he has once again evolved in Avengers: Doomsday.
“ I remember the first couple I did with Kenneth Branagh — that was a complete starting point and jumping-off point. I was in the arms of one of the best directors and most detailed, collaborative partners, and it was brilliant,” he said. “Then I worked with different directors. Some had a clear handle on who they thought the character was, and some didn’t. Even to their own admission — I remember Joss Whedon saying it’s a tricky character to write, especially once he’s acquired that strength. It was really around working with Taika where I was kind of sick of what I’d been doing, and he was like, ‘Yeah, so am I. Let’s explore a different space.’ I hope that brought something unpredictable to the character.
“In the more recent films since then, I felt like the character had earned his seat at the table. Before that, I felt like the new guy. I remember sitting around on Doomsday with all these new characters, people in their first Avengers film, and thinking I have a bit of agency here. I should have a bigger voice or opinion as the character. Owning that a little more, he does feel like one of the elders. He’s 2,000 years old or something, so we tried to play into that more than we had before.”
Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday arrives on December 18, 2026. Avengers: Secret Wars is dated for December 17, 2027.
