Thor: a dark world did not come out too much of that roadmap. To the point of being able to go through the same thing as Chris Hemsworth’s performance. However, he made it possible to lay the foundations for what would later be seen in other areas: the character began to go through a personal journey that leads to this line in which he is currently. Meanwhile, his occasional cameo appearances or notable interventions by him with the Saga avengers.
Progressively, Thor went from being portrayed in a bland way, with no greater appeal than his occasional interventions in action scenes, to becoming a key in the conflicts of The Avengers and, in doing so, correcting his own personal journey. The character played by Chris Hemsworth began to face different problems. From his role within his family to the uprooting and destruction of his own planet.
