My Revolution of PARTs

Thor: Love and Thunder  released its first trailer recently, and fans are pumped to once again spend time with Chris Hemsworth’s God of Thunder. This time around, the former Avenger will be on a quest for peace and self-realization, one that will be interrupted by an insidious villain played by Christian Bale as Marvel Comics villain Gorr the God Butcher. As much as the project’s first full trailer had to show off, sadly, Gorr wasn’t even spotted once. But what is his deal anyway? Well, the big bad hates Gods—in fact, he goes around slaughtering them. ADVERTISEMENT Khonshu in  Moon Knight But wait, isn’t there a God at the forefront of the MCU right now? Why yes, there is: Khonshu, the Egyptian God of the Moon. The deity is the being behind Oscar Isaac’s titular hero Moon Knight, whose series is currently streaming across the world on Disney+. But is he safe from the wrath of Thor’s next bloodthirsty villain? Well, fans may have some clarificati...

Marvel finally kickstarted the shortest promotional tour in MCU history by delivering the first trailer for Love and Thunder , providing a short tease for what the God of Thunder will face in his fourth solo movie.

Disney and Marvel Studios have turned their attention to this summer’s Thor: Love and Thunder , which just officially started its promotional tour after an excruciating wait. The follow-up to comedy expert Taika Waititi’s first solo MCU effort is now the talk of the town after its first trailer debuted to the public, showing how Thor and his allies jump back into the fray for their next adventure. The first trailer for Love and Thunder quickly became a hit, easily joining the top 10 most-viewed trailers in history and becoming the fifth-best for Marvel Studios alone after the last two Avengers films and Spider-Man: No Way Home . Delivering a new round of laughs along with plenty of thrilling action from the God of Thunder, this film could potentially be Hemsworth’s biggest solo story to date.

Thor: Love and Thunder is setting records and making MCU history ahead of its July release, which goes far beyond it being the first time an MCU solo hero has gotten a fourth film. Its debut trailer dropped just 82 days before the film’s release (a historically short marketing window), and it managed to bring in the fourth-most views ever for a trailer released online.  Along with  Love and Thunder's ground-breaking moment as a fourth solo movie, it will also break barriers and set new standards for representation in comic book films. Tessa Thompson will represent the LGBTQ+ community as King Valkyrie and Natalie Portman‘s Jane Foster becomes the new Thor in the MCU during her first starring MCU role in nine years. ADVERTISEMENT To many, Jane lifting Mjolnir looks like Marvel’s way of phasing Chris Hemsworth‘s God of Thunder out of the Avengers roster. This, combined with the movie’s main villain being Gorr the God Butcher, has many fans questionin...

Thor: Love and Thunder made (shock)waves this earlier week when the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated Marvel movie finally dropped after a record-breaking long time. While the teaser showed the return of fan favorites like Valkyrie, Korg, and the Guardians of the Galaxy, easily the main event was the reveal of Jane Foster's Mighty Thor. Excitement levels were through the roof when Natalie Portman appeared on stage at San Diego Comic-Con in 2019. The actress confirmed she would be returning in the fourth Thor movie after sitting out Thor: Ragnarok . She also revealed that not only would she be back as Thor's ex-girlfriend Jane, but she'd also be wielding his might hammer Mjolnir and taking on the mantle of Mighty Thor.

There are plenty of examples of how Marvel Studios has evolved creativity throughout the years, but one of the best projects to showcase this is Chris Hemsworth’s Thor: Love and Thunder . The film recently released its first teaser trailer, and it sure looks like director Taika Watiti’s brand of insanity is intact at dialed to eleven. It’s hard to believe such a movie exists in the MCU; that the story, and Marvel in general, would get around to adapting the material seen here.  Asgard is now one of the biggest tourist attractions on Earth, Thor is a peace-advocating guru going on a journey to discover himself, and Jane Foster now wields his former hammer. If someone were to tell fans 15 years ago that this movie was going to exist, they’d have thought you were Marc Spector levels of crazy. ADVERTISEMENT In response to the new trailer, a former writer for 2011’s Thor has acknowledged how he knows for a fact that Marvel Studios has loosened up creatively....

Marvel Studios has undeniably taken its time and struggled to find its footing with Thor. Chris Hemsworth's first two solo films are among the most controversial in the MCU, while Taika Waititi's third installment,  Raganrok , turned the character around with a new comedic direction that proved popular among fans. Following his standout role in the two climactic  Avengers  events of the Infinity Saga, Waititi is back with a fourth Thor solo outing:  Love and Thunder . The God of Thunder proved to be the shining star of  Infinity War, in which he took on and failed to kill Thanos, leading to the death of trillions. The depression of his failures led Hemsworth's Thor to gain some significant weight by the time  Endgame  came around, but with the Mad Titan now defeated, the Asgardian was last seen jetting off into space with the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Following the Multiversal madness coming in this year's  Doctor Strange sequel, Marvel Studios will continue its theatrical run in July with Chris Hemsworth's Thor: Love and Thunder . This comes as the first time any MCU solo hero has gotten a fourth solo outing, and it could be the God of Thunder's biggest adventure to date after Avengers: Endgame . With about half a year until Love and Thunder debuts, Marvel has done its due diligence in making sure the film's plot stays as much of a secret as possible. Outside Jane Foster becoming the Mighty Thor, an eventual dual with Christian Bale's Gorr the God Butcher, and some time with the Guardians of the Galaxy, specific plot details are a mystery.

Kingpin made his MCU debut near the end of  Hawkeye , with actor Vincent D'Onofrio returning to play the character. D'Onofrio famously portrayed the character in Netflix's  Daredevil  series from 2016-2018, and with Disney and Marvel Studios now owning the rights to Kingpin, it was only a matter of time before he was brought into the interconnected universe. Kingpin's presence in  Hawkeye  was largely behind the scenes, as his character was only mentioned first during the ending of Episode 5 when he was shown on-screen through a phone belonging to Hailee Steinfeld's Kate Bishop. The season finale, however, showcased D'Onofrio in full form, opening with a menacing conversation between himself and Vera Farmiga's Eleanor Bishop and then later showing him in action facing off with Kate. ADVERTISEMENT After his encounter with Kate, Kingpin was last seen being confronted by Alaqua Cox's Maya Lopez. After Maya pulled out a gun an...
