Marvel fans were in for a treat when filmmaker Taika Waititi had earlier confirmed Natalie Portman as Jane Foster in the much-awaited ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’. Whilst the ardent movie lovers showered their love on the first trailer a month ago, a brand new trailer was shared on Monday, May 23 that got the fans hyped.

‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ quickly secured the top spot on the trending list not because of the mighty Thor played by Chris Hemsworth but Jane Foster played by Hollywood icon Natalie Portman. While the fans are excited to see what’s in store for Natalie’s role, many social media users could not help but swoon over her bulked arms. Soon, the Internet was divided as others felt the arms were digitally edited.
