1. Thor: Love and Thunder
Director: Taika Waititi Cast: Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, Russell Crowe, Tessa Thompson Thor: Love and Thunder was one of the most anticipated movies of 2022 and made Thor the first MCU character to receive a fourth solo film. Fans were also looking forward to former Batman star and Oscar-winning actor Christian Bale’s villainous turn as Gorr the God Butcher in Thor: Love and Thunder. Thor: Love and Thunder finds the titular character, played by Chris Hemsworth, at a crossroads in his life as he gives up fighting and embarks on a journey to find inner peace. However, the arrival of his ex-girlfriend, ex-hammer, and a maniacal killer interrupts Thor's retirement. Thor: Love and Thunder attempted to recapture the magic of its beloved predecessor Thor: Ragnarok with its goofy and comedic tone but unfortunately, it fell flat on the viewers this time around. The film grossed $760 million worldwide and received mixed-to-positive reviews from both critics and fans.
