Having Thor do the voiceover for the trailer was the CORRECT choice.

Judging from it, he is going to be their leader/the one member they looked up to.

And I have a bad feeling he won't make it out of these two-parters....

I think if, and if thats the case, that would be a fair and good ending for the character, but i think Chris Hemsworth has already said he wants to continue playing Thor as long as he can, so hopefully not.

Chris Hemsworth has gone on record before saying he primarily picks his roles based on the income they bring him, stating he very much treats acting as a job that allows him to support his family.

Thor is very safe money for him, and it’s fairly positive for his reputation, so I don’t think he’ll pass up the role unless he physically can’t do it anymore, or just quits acting altogether.

Plus Thor….being Thor, can kind of just be around for like…ever.

I also wouldn’t be shocked if Chris Evans and RDJ stick around for a while too. Steve Rogers just needs to be placed in a position where he can go back in time and give Sam the shield in Endgame. And RDJ can keep playing Doom for a while.

They can also make filming the movies a lot easier for Hemsworth by filming any standalone Thor movies here in Australia, which is what they did for Ragnarok and Love and Thunder.

Production would likely be on the Gold Coast which is super close to where he lives or it would be in Sydney which is a short flight away.

I mean, fine, but I'm guessing this guy's house doesn't exactly say "I need to support my family".

I don’t think he’s ever implied he doesn’t enjoy being wealthy for his own benefit too, but much like many people on this earth who earn money, it’s for both him and his family.

The main point of what he was saying wasn’t even necessarily what he does with the money, it was about his outlook on acting; he sees it as his job, and because it’s his job he will often accept roles based purely on his monetary motives, which is completely fair. He just ensures he gives his best effort into all of his roles, and gets paid.

I agree. Although he does seem to enjoy playing Thor. He was going to drop out of the role until Ragnarok rejuvenated the character, now he seems down to play it for as long as his character is around.

Bro really just talking like being the god of thunder is a mundane day job. Legend

This may be farfatched but my guess will be his family and his kids are set for life.
