Fans Were Freaking Out After Chris Hemsworth Posted (Seemingly) A Goodbye To Thor, But They're Missing One Key Detail
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Following the departure of Robert Downey Jr., at least as Iron Man, Chris Evans, and Scarlett Johansson from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Chris Hemsworth's Thor has been one of the last, and the most visible, of the original Avengers team. With other Avengers, like Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye, also passing the torch to new heroes, one wonders just how much longer Thor will be around. It seems likely that Hemsworth may follow in the footsteps of his fellow Avengers and hang up his hammer before too long. However, fans were recently given a scare as they were afraid he'd chosen to do it now. Yesterday, Chris Hemsworth posted a video to his YouTube channel titled 'Thank You! The Legacy of Thor.' The video included a variety of shots and interviews with various people from the beginning of Hemsworth's time in the MCU up through the present day. Along with the video came a post that read… 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. Needless to say, the video and the post gave fans a start because it's easy to see it all as a farewell. Numerous posts indicated that when they first saw the post, they thought it was a retirement announcement. Comments included… Got scared for a second that this was announcement that you were retiring from the character -@reallynotnoone I my heart skipped a beat the second I saw this came across this video, I THOUGHT YOU WERE RETIRING 😭 PLEASE DON'T SCARE US LIKE THAT MY FATHER AND I ADORE THOR AND YOU -@veronicakim5412 I WAS THINKING THIS WAS THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE THOR'S END IN MCU Don't scare me like that, Chris!! -@nichols._.editss literally got Hemsworth is a true legend .....Lots of love from India Sir -@vedant3598 Ok. I thought this is like a farewell video Need Thor 5 -@hi_im_willow However, fans don't need to be too worried about losing Thor. At least not yet. While Hemsworth's post could be read as a goodbye, anybody who saw the reveal of the Avengers: Doomsday cast knew that the Thor actor isn't done yet. His name was the first one revealed in the epic Marvel livestream. He also re-confirmed this fact at the end of his post, saying… Thank you for making my journey through the Marvel Cinematic Universe unforgettable.. Next up, Doomsday! Of course, none of this means that Chris Hemsworth's Thor days aren't numbered. Thor may be appearing in next year's Avengers: Doomsday, but there's certainly no guarantee the character will survive the events. Perhaps this was a way for Hemsworth to begin to say goodbye to his time in the MCU.

Chris Hemsworth's Thor Video Scares Avengers: Doomsday Fans
Fans of the MCU are on pins and needles as Avengers: Doomsday has entered production. The recently delayed film is bringing back a number of franchise heroes, including Chris Hemsworth's Thor, who might've unintentionally set fans into a tizzy with an innocent video. Earlier this week, the Australia actor published a video looking back on his time as Thor, from 2011's Thor to when we last saw him in 2022's Love & Thunder. It's worth noting the video itself is nearly three years old and originally published before Love's release, but what caught viewers' eye was the description: '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!' The first Thor turns 15 in May 2026 (the same month of Doomsday's original release), so most likely, he just accidentally published it way in advance of that milestone. But the description's wording has longtime fans wondering if this is curtains for the God of Thunder; he's one of three original Avengers still around and alive, he's a father, and he's got Mjolnir again. As the one with the most heroic tenure when we enter Doomsday, the thinking seems to be he's due to go down, same as Tony and Natasha before him. Speaking of Tony, these thoughts are likely enhanced by Robert Downey Jr. playing Doctor Doom, the thinking being someone's got to be shocked by seeing this villain wear their friend's face, so why not pull that punch and then kill off Thor to raise the stakes? Hemsworth himself has been mum on the video at time of writing, and we likely won't know what awaits Thor until Doomsday. But death's always the end for the Avengers: Natasha got a final send-off in Black Widow, and Downey and Chris Evans are both coming back as other characters. The same could be true for Hemsworth down the line, or maybe we get a fifth solo movie showing if he got up to any Olympian stuff between Love and Doomsday. Even if Doomsday does kill him off, it won't be the last we see of Hemsworth—even if it's not 'til he's 90, we'll probably see him swing and strike down enemies with Mjolnir or Stormbreaker a few more times.

MSU vets treating MSP K9 after possible poisoning, second time in 6 months
LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — Veterinarians at Michigan State University are treating a Michigan State Police K9 after authorities say he may have ingested some poison. In a post on X, police say a dog named Thor was helping deputies in Lapeer County with a breaking and entering call. They say the dog was helping search a barn when he 'ingested suspected poison.' He was initially taken to a veterinarian for emergency treatment, but was then taken to the MSU Veterinary Clinic. The MSU facility is generally regarded as one of the best in the state. A 6 News staffer saw more than half a dozen state police cars outside the vet school. State police asked for 'paws-itive healing thoughts for a quick recovery.' It's not the first time Thor has been in this situation. Back in December, MSU veterinarians after police say he had been exposed to illicit drugs during a search in Flint. At the time, he tested positive for opioids, cocaine, and THC. He was treated with interventions such as Narcan and recovered. A spokesperson for the veterinary school did not immediately respond when 6 News sought comment. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Fans are Convinced Marvel is Going to Kill Off Thor in Recent Post from Chris Hemsworth
With Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans bowing out of the MCU after Endgame , it was Chris Hemsworth who was left behind to keep reprising Thor for Marvel Studios. With him expected to make an appearance in Doomsday , a lot of fans are convinced that this could be Hemsworth's last time as the God of Thunder because of a recent statement he made. Hemsworth (via @CultureCrave) wrote: '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 MCU unforgettable.. Next up, Doomsday!' At this point, everyone was already convinced that this means that they could be killing him off in the movie. Fans have replied with, 'Ya he's getting cooked ,' and, ' Oh he's not coming back after Doomsday.' With all of his other co-stars having moved on, it would make sense for Hemsworth to drop out of the MCU eventually. After all, he did go public with a diagnosis of him being susceptible to Alzheimer's disease, and it's possible he could be taking the time to process that. Personally, I was just hoping that they kept him around in a limited role. Thor eventually takes the place of Odin in the comics, and it would have been great if Hemsworth could just stick around in a chair ruling Asgard and being mentor to a new Thor. For now, fans wait for Avengers: Doomsday which comes out Dec. 18, 2026.
