Thor: Love & Thunder Secretly Retcons An Unseen Infinity War Tragedy

The 
Thor: Love and Thunder trailer secretly confirms another Thanos snap victim in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Mad Titan used the six Infinity Stones to snap half of all life across the universe out of existence for five years at the end of 
Avengers: Infinity War. It proved to be a defining moment for the MCU in many ways, especially when Thor’s arc was taken into account. Thor not killing Thanos in
Avengers: Infinity War before the snap happened proved to be incredibly traumatic, as he blamed himself for all of the snap victims that seemingly lost their lives before 
Avengers: Endgame brought them back.,After helping save the universe and bring back everyone who Thanos snapped away, Thor is going on a new journey in 
Thor: Love and Thunder. He’s left Earth and New Asgard behind to be with the Guardians of the Galaxy, but that will change once Gorr the God Butcher steps into the picture. Thor’s journey for peace will also see him reunite with Jane Foster for the first time since 
Thor: The Dark World. Her absence from the MCU in recent years has left 
Thor: Love and Thunder with plenty of room to explore what happened before Jane gains the power of Thor thanks to a reforged Mjolnir. And now it seems likely that Jane Foster was a Thanos snap victim.,Related: Portman’s Thor Looks Even Better Than Love & Thunder’s Trailer Suggested,During the 
Thor: Love and Thunder trailer, the footage shows Thor and Jane getting reacquainted after Odinson learns that she now wields Mjolnir. This includes a fun debate about how long it has been since they’ve seen each other and broke up. Jane Foster thinks it has been 3 or 4 years since she’s seen Thor, but the god of thunder says it is closer to 8 years, 7 months, and 6 days. Marvel secretly confirms in this moment of the 
Thor: Love and Thunder trailer that Jane was snapped by Thanos. She’s missing roughly 5 years of time according to Thor, which is how long The Blip lasted and anyone who was a Thanos snap victim was thought to be dead.,Jane Foster’s fate from Thanos’ snap has been a big question for the MCU ever since Marvel Studios confirmed Natalie Portman’s return for 
Thor: Love and Thunder. There was initially a belief that Jane survived the snap thanks to a tie-in novel for 
Avengers: Infinity War. It was later revealed in 
Avengers: Endgame‘s script that she was meant to be listed as a snap victim, but the movie didn’t include this confirmation. The conflicting information brought more confusion about what happened to Jane when Thanos’ snap occurred.,Since the MCU didn’t explicitly confirm if Jane Foster was a Thanos snap victim prior to 
Thor: Love and Thunder, Taika Waititi’s movie had plenty of wiggle room to go in either direction. The movie’s official trailer secretly confirming that she did turn to dust for five years is quite noteworthy as a result. It adds another layer of mystery to her story and means Jane’s Thor transformation couldn’t have happened during this stretch in secret. Now, it will be fascinating to see if 
Thor: Love and Thunder reveals exactly what Jane Foster was up to when Thanos’ snap happened.,More: Love & Thunder Theory: How Jane Foster Becomes Lady Thor (& An Actual God)
