Natalie Portman ruled herself out of next "Thor" film(s). While discussing her future projects during an interview with Christopher John Farley of The Wall Street Journal, the 35-year-old actress addressed her future in the MCU, claiming that she didn't expect to return in Marvel film anytime soon.
When asked whether she would ever reprise her role as Jane Foster, the love interest of Chris Hemsworth's Thor, she responded, "As far as I know I'm done."

While it was confirmed that she wouldn't appear in the upcoming "Thor: Ragnarok", the Oscar winner for Best Actress in "Black Swan" insisted, "That was all a great thing to be a part of." She later discussed her directorial debut in "A Tale of Love and Darkness", in which she also starred and served as screenwriter, and her upcoming film "Jackie".
