50 free Thor: Love and Thunder trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
Thor: Love and Thunder set out to be a 1980s adventure and a romance at the same time, and this quiz covers the whole gaudy trip: Gorr's daughter dying in the desert, Thor's stint with the Guardians, Jane Foster lifting a reforged Mjolnir in New Asgard, the kidnapped children in the Shadow Realm, Zeus and his Zeusettes in Omnipotence City, and the wish made at the gates of Eternity. The early questions are the ones any Marvel fan gets: who plays Gorr, who becomes the Mighty Thor, which Guns N' Roses song is everywhere. Then it digs into how the film was made: the comics run it adapts, the working title, which god Russell Crowe was originally cast as, whose children play the New Asgard kids, which cameos were cut, why nine countries refused to show it and how Chris Hemsworth later judged his own performance. Every answer has been checked against production reporting and the film's own record, and each question links to its source. Our Thor trivia covers the god, the comics and all four films; this page is dedicated to Love and Thunder.
