Thor: Mystery of the God-Butcher

Thor: Mystery of the God-Butcher is a 2029 animated superhero mystery film directed by Amelia Lorenz from a screenplay co-written with Christopher Yost and based on the Marvel Comics character Thor. Produced by Disney Television Animation and Marvel Animation, and starring the voices of Rick D. Wasserman, Matthew Rhys, Grey Griffin, Phil LaMarr, Fred Tatasciore, Max Mittleman, and George Takei, the film centers on Thor as he faces against a serial god killer.

Development on an animated Thor film would be announced at the San Diego Comic-Con 2027, with Lorenz and Yost attached. The film's cast would be announced the folloeing year. Lorenz would develop the film with the intention of taking Thor in a more serious direction that differed from his potrayal in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and would develop the story as a murder mystery centered aroumd Gorr the God-Butcher as she felt the film Thor: Love and Thunder missused the character. Lorenz would cite the films Batman: Mask of the Phantasm qnd Matt Reeves' The Batman as inspiratiins for the film's direction and tone, as she frlt those were "the epitome of how to make a detective story starring superheroes".
