“Lend me the strength of the All Fathers, so that I may fight once more. Defeat one more enemy. And return home to her.”
And so the scene is set for Thor‘s story in Avengers: Doomsday, the highly anticipated Marvel movie reuniting its most famous superheroes against a new enemy: Robert Downey Jr’s Doctor Doom.
Chris Hemsworth will return as the God of Thunder, and the Doomsday teaser features him on bended knee in a sepia-lit forest praying to his late father, the Norse god Odin.
He is pleading for a safe return to his daughter, Love, who will be played by Hemsworth’s real-life daughter, India. The character first appeared in 2022’s Love and Thunder.
The Thor-themed trailer is the second to be released, following a teaser revealing the return of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers — another character doting on their child ahead of impending doom. The Doomsday teasers are playing in cinemas attached to showings of Avatar: Fire and Ash.
Avengers: Doomsday will be the big Christmas movie next year, premiering on December 18, 2026. Joe and Anthony Russo last Avengers title, Endgame, is the second-highest-grossing movie of all-time with $2.799 billion.
