Only if she reprises her role in her Jackie Kennedy voice.

Anything to make her character remotely interesting.

 

[xenist]

No thanks. How about someone actually interesting who didn't get outshone by two different actresses with much less screentime?

 

[jb1234]

I completely forgot she was in the Thor films. I might need to watch Thor and Thor: The Dark World.

You're not missing much. They're easily the weak link in the MCU.

 

[QuantumSquid]

Thor 3: the Light World

 

[tearsintherain]

Bring Darcy back.

fold the 2 Broke Girls universe into the Marvel universe

 

[MechDX]

Translation: I got off the money train too early. Let me back on!

 

[Kayo Police]

"I like money"

Pretty much. I dont even know why she left in the first place. Marvel movies are an easy paycheck.

 

[DrunkShogun]

Would be a waste to bring her back. She has no enthusiasm when she plays the role and she's not a big draw for marvel to get back so hopefully we move to Jane having a new actress.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Pass.

 

[Sojgat]

Bring Darcy back.

+1

 

[metalslimer]

Yeah even with Portman trying harder there was no saving Jane with how she was written in those movies.

 

[massoluk]

Is that a threat?

 

[ClosingADoor]

Just give her an interesting role to play at least. I can't even remember what she did in The Dark World. Can't blame her for not giving it her all when offered such limited material.

 

[Nester99]

 

[Wag]

Thor vs Black Swan

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

 

[Peru]

Shitty characters are not Portman or Lawrence's fault.

 

[Ambient80]

Since Thor is most likely dying in Infinity War films, I have nothing against her showing up for a bit.

Almost every day I hear someone say something like this about a major character in the MCU. At this point one would expect the entire MCU cast to die in Infinity War.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Natalie Portman makes everything better tbh.

 

[theWB27]

Her performance in 2hor set a new low bar for the genre

No thanks, Nat.

Anyway, isn't Thor done after Avengers: Thanos Brawl?

Where's this mythical acting performance that made her efforts stand out?

Mystique.... Does the latest outing not count?

 

[Spiral Insanity]

NO. Even amongst the mediocrity that is Thor 2, she is easily the worst part of that series.

Uh, opposite day again

 

[Broken Joystick]

Just give her an interesting role to play at least. I can't even remember what she did in The Dark World. Can't blame her for not giving it her all when offered such limited material.

most people can't remember the plot of thor 2 either

 

[Khezu]

Make Darcy Lady Thor.

 

[Glass Rebel]

It's coo, we got Valkyrie now.

 

[Meowster]

There's not much she can do with the role unless they give her something to do. I liked her in them okay but her talents were pretty wasted. Hope they give her something better if she comes back.

 

[MagnaderAlpha]

Acting like she was Jar Jar Binks rolled into Skidz and Mudflap is just silly.

But, Darcy's the Jar Jar of the Thor movies.

 

[RS4-]

Time for Jennifer Lawrence to join.

 

[Phased]

Honestly Thor 2 wasn't the first movie I've seen her phone in a performance. She was a standout in the prequels for how horrible she was. I can't watch that balcony scene in Revenge without cringing. How many times does the director and/or script get blamed when it's obvious she's just there to collect a paycheck.

I'm not saying she brought those movies down. They had their own issues. She can be a great actress if she gives a damn about the role but she seems totally incapable of faking it.

 

[fantomena]

Thor 2: Electric Thoordaloo

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

 

[funkystudent]

Bring Darcy back.

The only good thing about the Thor movies.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

But, Darcy's the Jar Jar of the Thor movies.

Jar Jar redeemed.

 

[CountAntonius]

She was awful. Darcy was nice to look at but the character was incredibly annoying.

 

[Pachimari]

I want her back, and back as female Thor!

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Ewan Mcgregor was literally the only person in those 3 movies who could do anything and it was still trying its damnedest to make him fail with the writing.
Freaking Liam Neesons was awful in it besides being kind of cool for some reason.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Recast her with Hugo Weaving and have Jane be an alias of Red Skull.

 

[Balphon]

Writing out both Jane and Sif in one fell swoop is a little awkward, but...eh, whatever.

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

No thanks woman.

 

[WorldStar]

Yes please, she always kills it

 

[Discotheque]

they can cast whoever they want those films were still gonna be shit, everybody except hiddleston and hemsworth phoned those movies in and they weren't even much good. i don't like it when people throw her talent (or cotillard) under the bus over a superhero movie tbh. that's lame.

maybe the new director can make a decent thor movie though because his other movies were so good.

 

[kai3345]

I'd be fine with Portman coming back to the role, as long as she actually tried

 

[JHoNNy1OoO]

I'd be open to easy and huge paychecks as well. Too bad she is completely wasted in the movies(acting wise).

 

[kurahador]

But, Darcy's the Jar Jar of the Thor movies.

Yeah...Natalie in Thor is basically Amidala in Episode 2 and 3.

Marvel should recast her if they want Jane to become the new Thor.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

Pretty sure this guy would love it.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Keep her away if it means the other one is gone too..

 

[Kimaka]

I wouldn't mind it as long as they gave Jane something interesting to do. The problem wasn't Portman, but that her character was a nonentity.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Recast her with Hugo Weaving and have Jane be an alias of Red Skull.

Or just recast her with Hugo Weaving as Jane and don't ever explain or address it. The Thor movies would retroactively become cinematic masterpieces.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Pretty sure this guy would love it.

Aether Jane must take up an entire portable drivr.

 

[Skellig Gra]

Portman open to massive payday

 

[JBuccCP]

That isn't inaccurate.
