So hey, if anyone sees this who wants to be negative about Jane, or Taika, or Thor: Ragnarok, please make a separate post. I don’t have the spoons for your negativity and this wasn’t my tweet so I don’t care if you repost.

Hammer drop.

President of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige revealed the upcoming slate of films in "phase four" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) at a San Diego Comic-Con panel Saturday, reports CNET. One of the films is the fourth installment of the Thor series, titled "Thor: Love and Thunder," directed by Taika Waititi. The flick is set to be released on November 5, 2021.

While addressing the audience alongside stars Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Tessa Thompson (Valkyrie), Waititi explained the movie is inspired by his recent readings of "The Mighty Thor" series — and female Mighty Thor.

He then announced Portman would be making a comeback to the franchise, after appearing as astrophysicist and Thor's love interest Jane Foster, in 2011's "Thor" and 2013's "Thor: The Dark World."

Portman took the stage and was fittingly handed Thor's famous hammer by Waititi.

The star commented on the casting announcement on Instagram Saturday. "So thrilled to share the news with you today at #sdcc2019 that I'll be returning to the @marvel #mcu as female Thor," she wrote alongside a photo of her accepting the hammer. "(Remember this as the before picture for when I get jacked)," she added.”

“In case nobody else has told you: She’s not Lady Thor or FemThor or “a Female Thor.” Just Thor. If you need to make a differentiation between her and Odinson, she’s “Mighty Thor.”

“I think we’re all missing the point here. Jane Foster has a PhD in astrophysics. She isn’t “female Thor” or “girl Thor.” She’s DR. Thor”

Friendly Reminder

that Jane Foster isn’t “Lady Thor.”

Back in 2014, when Marvel first announced that they were going to have a new Thor and that she would be female, their announcement had this in it:

The writer of Jane’s Thor run preemptively came out and said in the announcement of the new female Thor that she wasn’t “Lady Thor.” Or “Thorita.” Or “She-Thor.” Or any other form of insert-feminized-version-of-Thor’s-name here. She is just THOR. So please, let’s not call her Lady Thor.

Now, what to call her instead?

Taika Waititi has suggested “Mighty Thor,” which is the name of the majority of Jane’s Thor run in comics. Aside from that, the first 8 issues of Jane’s Thor run were just called “Thor.” (And it was only at the end of those 8 issues that we found out the new Thor was Jane Foster.) Then the comic was relaunched as “The Mighty Thor” and it stayed that way until the end of Jane’s tenure as Thor.

BUT, “The Mighty Thor” is also a title that Thor Odinson has had ever since his first appearance in “Journey Into Mystery” in 1962. It was part of the logo of his titular comic after that in 1966- a logo that had been used even before that on the covers of Journey Into Mystery once Thor proved popular. There was even a Thor run called “The Mighty Thor” in 2011; Jane’s Mighty Thor run is volume 2 of that title. All this stuff means “Mighty Thor” is a title used by both Thors, so it doesn’t help us differentiate between Thors too much and I’m not really a fan of using for Jane as Thor.

So what can we call Jane!Thor to distinguish her from Thor Odinson? I’ve seen people suggest Dr Thor, which works pretty well since all the versions of Jane that have been Thor have a doctorate! I’ve occasionally seen people use FosThor for comics Jane for years. Personally, I’ve been tagging her as Thor Goddess of Thunder since before we knew who the new Thor was. These are all good options for things to call Jane!Thor!

But whatever we wind up collectively calling Jane as Thor, whether it’s Mighty Thor or something else that’s more unique to her, hopefully we can stop calling her Lady Thor.

(Reposting this since it didn’t make it into the the tags the first time.)
