"Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is on a journey unlike anything he's ever faced – a quest for inner peace. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods," reads the official synopsis.
"To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who – to Thor's surprise – inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher's vengeance and stop him before it's too late."
Hemsworth also shared the trailer on Instagram with the caption: "Very excited to drop this trailer! Here's a two-minute sneak peek into a crazy wild, fun adventure that has all the love and thunder. On July 8th, we'll be giving you a full two hours of this beautiful madness. Until then, enjoy the ride that is the Official Thor Love and Thunder trailer. Boom!!!!"
