Natalie Portman as Jane Foster in the Thor franchise.

What do you think of Natalie Portman as Jane a.k.a. Thor's love interest? I don't like her. In fact I kind of hate her. Now, I don't hate Portman as an actress, but I hate the way the character was written and I hate the way Natalie plays her. I was kind of hoping for a character who was at least half as interesting as Pepper Potts, hell Peggy Carter was more interesting than Jane Foster, and she tried to shoot Captain America at point blank range when all he had was a shield to defend himself with.

If Marvel Studios decides to use the idea from the comic books that Thor is a woman, and her secret identity is (SPOILER)Jane Foster I hope they recast Jane with an actress who can differentiate herself from Natalie Portman and her "performance" as much as possible.

I love her as Jane Foster. THe Thor movies are actually my favorites in the MCU. Spacyness and viking lore is probably the reason for that.

(SPOILER) I would love to see Natalie in a badass more actiony role. I think she could pull it off well. I personally love her as Jane so I think it'll work out great if there was a female Thor movie.

You may want to put more of that under spoilers though because it's very obvious you're already talking about jane in this thread.

Natalie Portman is perfection. Everything she does is perfect. Yes, even Padme Amidala.

Needs to be in The Professional 2 imo. She has already proven badass status at the age of... whatever age she was when she did The Professional.

I like her just fine.

I would be very unhappy if Natalie Portman was cast as the new female Thor...For that role, they need somebody who's like Chris Hemsworth in chick form.

Someone suggested Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck in Battlestar Galactica).

I think Katee Sackhoff is probably going to be Captain Marvel.

Natalie Portman is great. She should be all the roles.

She's good but definitely not the most important 'female love interest' in the MCU. Peggy Carter and even Pepper are more interesting characters (not better acted characters mind you, and not even close to being as attractive).

I just can't see Natalie Portman as the new female, Goddess of Thunder, Thor because I think it's because of how she's drawn in the comics. Now, Natalie Portman is not a tall lady and I think the new female Thor is probably quite tall. And the female Thor probably has some muscle on her.

she's the best actor in the entire thor franchise so

Peggy Carter knocks those two out of the box.

It would be kind of a fun twist, her becoming the next Thor. She's already an established character and even got the Loki stamp of approval. I'd be down for it.

I don't think they'll be getting rid of Chris Hemsworth any time soon, though. He's way too popular among movie crowds. Then again, Marvel has been known to take a lot of risks. Who knows. Depends whether or not Natalie Portman would want to do it.
