Actor Kat Dennings, who portrayed Darcy Lewis in the first two Thor movies, is unsure if she'll appear in Thor: Love and Thunder, even though Darcy's character is in the Disney+ series WandaVision.
"No, still no idea!" Dennings said when asked if she'd reprise her role in the fourth Thor Film in a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight.
"I don’t think I'm in it," Dennings said. "I feel like I would have heard by now. So literally my answer is I have no idea, I have even less an idea than I did before."
In 2011's Thor and 2013's Thor: The Dark World, Dennings' role as Darcy served as an assistant to Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), an astrophysicist. However, neither character appeared in 2017's Thor: Ragnarok, and there was only a fleeting reference to Foster in 2019's Avengers: Endgame. About bringing Darcy back in WandaVision, Dennings said, "I was thrilled and it was somewhat of a surprise what they planned for her."
Foster will portray The Mighty Thor in Thor: Love and Thunder. In reply to that shift in Thor's universe, Dennings said, "I thought it was genius, the most genius thing I had ever heard. I think it's so brilliant. I mean, [Portman], you know, she's a rock star actor, she can do anything... As a fan, I'm just excited to watch it."
Written by Jac Schaeffer and directed by Matt Shakman, WandaVision stars Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany, Randall Park, Kat Dennings, Teyonah Parris and Kathryn Hahn. The limited series is currently scheduled to debut on Disney+ in December.
Directed by Taika Waititi, Thor: Love and Thunder stars Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson and Natalie Portman. The film arrives in theaters on Feb. 11, 2022.
