When Loki attacks Manhattan, the Avengers—Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanoff, Clint Barton, and Simon Williams—respond swiftly. Joined by new allies Tony Stark, Peter Maximoff, Bruce Banner, Hank Pym, and Janet Van Dyne, they subdue him and take him prisoner. But his presence on Earth triggers an even greater threat: Thor, God of Thunder, arrives, demanding Loki’s release and challenging the Avengers. In a fierce battle, Steve and Hank confront Thor, but the fight halts when Loki escapes. Thor learns Loki has returned to Asgard and assassinated Odin, claiming the throne. Now forced to choose between vengeance and duty, Thor joins the Avengers to reclaim his home. Together, they travel to Asgard, facing frost giants, dark elves, and Asgardian soldiers loyal to Loki. Thor, inspired by Jane Foster, a compassionate Earth doctor he met, fights with new resolve. In the final clash, the Avengers distract Loki long enough for Thor to take him down. With Asgard saved, Thor names Baldur the Brave its new king. He returns to Earth, choosing to protect Midgard with the Avengers—and to be near Jane. In the credits scene we see a mysterious figure with glowing blue eyes and a red hood pulled through the portal to Asgard created by Loki during his arrival on Earth—foreshadowing a new power rising from the shadows.
