The film featured several other MCU superheroes, including Spider-Man, turning it into a major ensemble blockbuster.
On the other hand, Thor’s biggest box office hit is Thor: Ragnarok. It collected $855.3 million at the worldwide box office. The second highest-grossing film in this Chris Hemsworth starrer franchise is Love and Thunder despite the poor reviews. Taika Waititi is not returning for the potential 5th Thor movie.
