Avengers: Endgame — Natalie Portman's appearance at world premiere sparks theories of Jane Foster's comeback

Natalie Portman made a surprise appearance at the world premiere of Avengers: Endgame  in Los Angeles on 22 April, sending Marvel fans into a frenzy. The Oscar winner was a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as the astrophysicist Jane Foster and Thor’s love interest in Thor (2011) and Thor: The Dark World (2013). However, her character did not return to any of the Avengers films that followed. Since then, Portman has starred in films like _Jackie, Vox Lux _ , Annihilation  and will also be seen as an astronaut  in Lucy in the Sky .  Fans were thrilled to see Portman gracing the purple carpet of the Marvel event, but also wondered whether her character would make a comeback in the upcoming film.
