Chris Hemsworth clarifies viral ‘goodbye' video wasn't farewell to Thor ahead of 'Avengers: Doomsday'
Chris Hemsworth has responded to fan speculation that his viral 'thank you' video marked the end of his role as Thor in Avengers: Doomsday, insisting it was never intended to signal a departure. Hemsworth posted a video in May titled 'Thank You! The Legacy of Thor', in which he revisited his journey from early auditions through Endgame and Thor: Love and Thunder. The emotional tone led many to speculate that the character might meet his end in the upcoming film. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hemsworth said the clip was meant as gratitude to fans and clarified that it was 'certainly not the intent' to prompt concern. He explained the post was collaboratively created by his social media team and himself, intended only as a celebration of the character's legacy. Hemsworth added that after filming the video, he received feedback that he may have unintentionally caused confusion. 'We didn't do any damage control; there was no damage control necessary. But a lot was read into a little,' he said, and stressed that he is already embarking on 'another chapter' with Thor. Despite the speculation, Hemsworth's remarks reinforce that he is continuing in the role and that the video was never meant as a farewell. Fan theories had suggested a dramatic end for Thor, including a potential reunion with Loki and a grand finale inspired by the New Avengers (Vol. 3) #32 storyline. But Hemsworth's clarification suggests his exit is far from final.

Will Chris Hemsworth Exit MCU After Avengers: Doomsday? Emotional Tribute Sparks Thor Death Rumors
Chris Hemsworth has left fans emotional after releasing a video titled 'Thank You! The Legacy of Thor' on his YouTube channel. The 1-minute 56-second clip features scenes from all his appearances as Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), from Thor (2011) to Avengers: Endgame (2019), and beyond. The emotional tribute comes just as Marvel's next big film, Avengers: Doomsday, builds buzz ahead of its 2026 release. In the video, Hemsworth says, 'Playing Thor has been one of the greatest honors of my life. For the last 15 years I've held Mjolnir and then Stormbreaker as the God of Thunder, but what made it truly special…was sharing it with all of you.' His words have sparked speculation that this could be his final appearance as Thor in the MCU. Could Avengers: Doomsday be Thor's Final Battle in the MCU? While Hemsworth is confirmed to appear in Avengers: Doomsday, fans are wondering if this could be Thor's final battle. Hemsworth ended his video with the cryptic message: 'Next up, Doomsday!' One viral comment on social media read, 'Thors gonna get obliterated by Doom in the first 10 minutes of Doomsday, isn't he??' Others echoed similar thoughts, suggesting that Hemsworth may have already wrapped his final scene. The upcoming Avengers: Doomsday will be directed by MCU veterans Anthony and Joe Russo and is set for release on December 18, 2026. The film will feature a star-studded cast, including Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, Anthony Mackie as Captain America, and Letitia Wright as Black Panther. Chris Hemsworth has played Thor since 2011, becoming one of the MCU's most beloved and enduring characters. Over the years, he brought a unique blend of strength, humor, and heart to the role, helping redefine the superhero genre. In past interviews, Hemsworth has hinted that Thor's story could soon come to an end. 'I feel like we'd probably have to close the book if I ever did it again,' he once said. 'You have this birth of a hero, the journey of a hero, then the death of a hero, and I don't I at that stage? Who knows?' Despite rumors of Thor's death, some fans believe Hemsworth could return in Avengers: Secret Wars, which is scheduled for release on December 17, 2027. Like Doomsday, it will also be directed by the Russo brothers.

Chris Hemsworth's heartfelt Thor tribute fuels speculation of MCU Exit
Although it's now official that Chris Hemsworth will reprise his role as 'Thor' in Avengers: Doomsday, the actor has released a video called "Thank You! The Legacy of Thor," which has sparked rumours that he could be nearing the end of his MCU Wednesday, the star took to his YouTube channel to release a one-minute and fifty-six-second video that features a mix of clips, behind-the-scenes footage and interview moments from Chris Hemsworth's time as the MCU's 'God of Thunder,' including scenes from all four Thor films and ensemble entries like Avengers, Age of Ultron, Infinity War and also shared a message saying "Playing Thor has been one of the greatest honors of my life. For the last 15 years I've held Mjolnir and then Stormbreaker as the God of Thunder, but what made it truly special… was sharing it with all of you. Your passion, your cheers, and your love for this character have meant everything to me. Thank you for making my journey through the Marvel Cinematic Universe unforgettable.. Next up, Doomsday!".While his heartfelt note feels like he's bidding goodbye to the iconic character, it's also widely assumed that Hemsworth will now appear in Avengers: Secret Wars—unless, of course, the Mighty Asgardian is destined to join his ancestors in Valhalla during this is not the first time; in the past also, Hemsworth suggested that it might be time to kill off the character."I feel like we'd probably have to close the book if I ever did it again, you know what I mean? I feel like it probably warrants that. I think it'd probably be the finale, but that's not based on anything anyone's told me or any plans. You have this birth of a hero, the journey of a hero, then the death of a hero, and I don't know... am I at that stage? Who knows?"Both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars have recently faced major delays, with Doomsday now scheduled for release on December 18, 2026, and Secret Wars following on December 17, Russo brothers are set to direct both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, marking their first MCU projects since directing The Winter Soldier, Civil War, Infinity War and Endgame.
