Tessa Thompson<\/a>\u2019s ranking of the MCU<\/a> movies that she\u2019s starred in may surprise some fans.<\/p>\n

Thompson plays Valkyrie<\/a> in the Marvel<\/a> Cinematic Universe. The character first debuted in 2017\u2019s Thor: Ragnarok<\/a> before she then appeared in both 2019\u2019s Avengers: Endgame<\/a> and 2022\u2019s Thor: Love and Thunder<\/a>. She also had a minor role in 2023\u2019s The Marvels.<\/p>\n

What is Tessa Thompson\u2019s ranking for her MCU movies?<\/p>\n

Appearing on Watch What Happens Live!<\/a> with Andy Cohen, Thompson was asked if she could rank the MCU movies that she\u2019s starred in from favorite to least favorite.<\/p>\n

\u201cThor: Ragnarok [first],\u201d Thompson answered. \u201cThor: Love and Thunder. Avengers: Endgame. I know I\u2019m going to get in trouble for that, but that\u2019s my emotional truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

While MCU fans can debate if they feel Thor: Ragnarok or Avengers: Endgame should be on top of that list, the surprising bit here is Thor: Love and Thunder, as that movie wasn\u2019t nearly as well-received as the other two. The Taika Waititi-directed Marvel Studios<\/a> movie received mixed reviews from critics, as it currently has a 63 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes.<\/p>\n

It did, however, still make plenty of money at the box office, as it grossed around $760.9 million worldwide, making it the eighth-highest-grossing film of 2022.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s been no word regarding whether Thompson will be returning to the MCU anytime soon, as her name was not one of those who appeared when the initial cast for Avengers: Doomsday, which arrives in December 2026, was announced. There\u2019s still the possibility that she could show up in that movie or the sequel, Avengers: Secret Wars, though nothing is official at this time.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Thompson now stars in Hedda, which is available to stream on Prime Video. Written and directed by Nia DaCosta, the movie is based on Henrik Ibsen\u2019s Hedda Gabler and also stars Nina Hoss, Imogen Poots, and Tom Bateman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tessa Thompson\u2019s ranking of the MCU movies that she\u2019s starred in may surprise some fans.
