Natalie Portman reveals how she got in shape for Marvel's Thor: Love and Thunder

Natalie Portman returns as Thor's girlfriend Jane in the new Marvel film Thor: Love and Thunder. The actress will play the female version of the god of thunder, The Mighty Thor, writes VF.

Portman said that she worked hard with a coach for 4 months before filming began, and did not stop training while working on the film.

"We did a lot of weight training and a lot of protein shakes – heavyweight training that I haven't ever done before. It was very physical, so it was a lot of both agility work and also strength work. It definitely helps you get into character, and it's definitely changed the way I move. You walk differently; you feel different," she said.

Natalie added that she felt truly physically strong for the first time in her life.
