Jane Foster was mentioned in Avengers: Age of Ultron but it's been clear for a while now that Natalie Portman's role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is at an end. As a result, she won't be making an appearance in Thor: Ragnarok despite the fact that a good chunk of the action takes place on Earth. So, will Jane's fate be referenced in any way and what does that mean for the God of Thunder from here?
Chris Hemsworth was asked exactly that on the set of the movie and replied: "Umm, no we have this, we have some… some very respectable fun with how that relationship may have come to an end [laughs]." Well, it sounds like Jane will be something of a punchline in the threequel in that case.
Jane isn't the only one missing, though. Sif and the Warriors Three also aren't expected to appear. Or so we thought! After indicating that Loki did something to the God of Thunder's friends after taking the throne as Odin, executive producer Brad Winderbaum pointed to them showing up in some form in Thor: Ragnarok. "Um… That’s not necessarily the case," he said about them not appearing before adding the following in regards to us learning about what's happened to the heroes. "And yes."
Do you have any theories about the fates of these characters in the movie? Are you disappointed they don't have more significant roles? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
