A new fan trailer for “Thor 5” showcases Chris Hemsworth’s Thor facing off against Brett Goldstein’s Hercules, hinting at a potential clash in the MCU. Despite the commercial success of “Thor: Love and Thunder,” Marvel Studios has remained tight-lipped about the future of the Thor franchise, leaving fans uncertain about the fate of Thor and Hercules. Hemsworth’s openness to returning for “Thor 5” contrasts with his desire for his next appearance to possibly be his last, especially considering his health concerns.

With divergent visions between Hemsworth and director Taika Waititi, the direction of “Thor 5” remains unclear. Hemsworth’s preference for a “drastically different tone” suggests a departure from the style of “Thor: Love and Thunder,” potentially involving Hercules as a formidable antagonist. However, Hemsworth’s health considerations add another layer of uncertainty to the possibility of his return as Thor in the MCU. Time will tell if “Thor 5” will materialize and if Hemsworth will continue his role in the MCU in future phases.
