"I think that's a really powerful part of books. I think it's really cool that she's fighting this thing and re's two battles going on. Personally, I really love that storyline. But wher it ends up in film is yet to be seen," Waititi, who is coming back as director, told Variety.

Comics book writer Jason Aaron h explored storyline in 2015, when Thor becomes unworthy to wield his magical hammer, Mjolnir, and loses his title as Asgardian superhero, an unnamed woman takes hammer and becomes female Thor.
