Thor: Ragnorak director teases Jane Foster return

May 10th, 2017 by Marc Comments

Taika Waititi has teased that we could see the return of Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster character in Thor: Ragnorak.

The director hinted at her appearance in the forthcoming Marvel film following a random tweet (see below). He shared a spliced image of a younger Portman carrying a potted plant in Leon: The Professional with a current photo of the pregnant star. Waititi then captioned the image, “Heed the signs,” before tagging ‘Ragnarok’ with a hashtag.

The character’s absence in Avengers: Age of Ultron was a talking point for many fans, so hopefully we’ll get an update or at least closure on their relationship.

Thor: Ragnorak is directed by Taika Waititi, written by Craig Kyle, and will open in cinemas on 3 November 3 2017.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
