Wondering why Valkyrie is known as King of Asgard in ThorLoveAndThunder? Tessa Thompson has an answer: 'The truth is, that's the job that Thor was going to do, and then he just gave her the job.'
Tessa Thompson has clarified why Valkyrie is specifically known as the 'king' of New Asgard in Thor: Love and Thunder. Following on from Avengers: Endgame, the latest adventure for the lightning-wielding god sees Thor attempting to find inner peace and leave his superhero days behind him. However, Thor's plans for a more relaxing life are derailed when he is forced to face Gorr the God Butcher and recruits various friends to help defeat him.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY So far, Thor: Love and Thunder trailers have promised a lot of unexpected twists for both the titular Avenger and audiences, from a reforged Mjolnir wielded by Jane's Mighty Thor, to the surprise appearance of the Greek god Zeus — which baffled some audiences given that the deity comes from a different pantheon altogether.
"She's a kind king. I know there's been some confusion on the internet in terms of the gendering with her being king. The truth is, that's the job that Thor was going to do, and then he just gave her the job, and we just didn't bother to change the title, because the title is 'king', and she's like, 'Well, I can be king.' The suits that she wears – we thought it was sort of a fun nod to Frida Kahlo.
When Thor gave the role of king of New Asgard to Valkyrie, she told the thunder god that she would make a lot of changes to their new home. Audiences will presumably see these play out in Love and Thunder, though previous comments from Waititi indicate that perhaps Valkyrie is not enjoying her new Asgard leadership role. Indeed, the Thor 4 trailers have already suggested that the community has become more bureaucratic under Valkyrie, while the character is missing her warrior days in battle.
For those who were somewhat confused by Valkyrie's royal address, Thompson's comments will at least help clear up one of the mysteries surrounding Love and Thunder, which indicate that the character has simply seamlessly stepped into Thor's shoes. However, as Thompson has confirmed Valkyrie isn't satisfied with being king, it remains to be seen how the role itself will affect the character's relationship with Thor, regardless of its title.
