Jaimie Alexander is in talks to return to the Marvel Cinematic as the fan favorite Asgardian warrior Sif in Thor: Love and Thunder, and may also make an appearance on the upcoming Loki Disney+ series, according to an individual with knowledge of the project.Alexander appeared as Sif, one of Thors closest friends who, its implied, carries a torch for him, in 2011s Thor and 2013s Thor: The Dark World. She didnt appear in Thor: Ragnarok due to scheduling conflicts with her NBC show Blindspot.Of course, the plot of Love and Thunder and Sifs role in it are still under wraps, but we have an idea of what might happen.

By the end he figured things out a bit and abdicated, handing the kingdom over to Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) who was pretty much already running things in New Asgard anyway. Then Thor left Earth on a journey to parts unknown with the Guardians of the Galaxy.Meanwhile its probably at least somewhat relevant that during the announcement of Love and Thunder at Comic-Con 2019, Thompson provided a crucial detail about Valkyries story. First of all, as a new king, she needs to find her queen. So that will be the first order of business, she told fans in Hall H.Point being, we think Lady Sif would make a pretty good Queen of Asgard.Also Read: Here's Everything Disney Just Announced During Massive Investor Day PresentationAlexander joins Academy Award Winner Christian Bale in Thor: Love and Thunder, who as announced Thursday during Disneys investor call will play the villain Gorr the God Butcher.Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi is returning to helm Love and Thunder and co-wrote the script with Jennifer Kaytin Robinson.
