However, there are quite a few MCU players that Thor has not had the opportunity to fight one-on-one yet in the franchise. Recently, one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/mcu-tv-shows-marvel-ranked\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">MCU&#8217;s best TV shows<\/a> allowed a dream battle for Thor to happen, but Hemsworth did not play him.<\/p>\n<p>                        Thor Finally Fights The Scarlet Witch But With No Chris Hemsworth<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Scarlet Witch vs Thor in Marvel Zombies\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/scarlet-witch-vs-thor-in-marvel-zombies.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/scarlet-witch-vs-thor-in-marvel-zombies.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Warning! This article contains SPOILERS for Marvel Zombies.Hemsworth&#8217;s Thor appears in both live-action and animation in the MCU, with the latter seeing the actor voice the hero in What If&#8230;? However, the original member of the Avengers <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/chris-hemsworth-thor-marvel-zombies-recast-greg-furman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">does not return to voice Thor in Marvel Zombies<\/a>, with another actor, <strong>Greg Furman, taking over as Thor<\/strong> for the multiverse MCU project. This version of Thor is different from Hemsworth&#8217;s in a key way.<\/p>\n<p>After being blasted by zombie Thanos with the full might of the Infinity Stones, Furman&#8217;s Thor has part of his body heavily damaged. He stays silent for five years before finally deciding to act once again to stall the Scarlet Witch&#8217;s undead army and allow Ms. Marvel and her superhero team to escape. This leads to <strong>a direct Thor vs Scarlet Witch fight<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Hemsworth&#8217;s Thor and Elizabeth Olsen&#8217;s Scarlet Witch stand as two of the MCU&#8217;s most powerful heroes. As such, fans have long been comparing the characters&#8217; power levels. While the circumstances are different from a main MCU battle, Marvel Zombies sees the undead Scarlet Witch prove herself to be too much for the injured Thor, <strong>killing Thor and transforming him into a zombie.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>                        Could Chris Hemsworth&#8217;s Thor Ever Fight Elizabeth Olsen&#8217;s Scarlet Witch?<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"1650\" height=\"826\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Thor stands out in Thor: love and thunder\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/chris-hemsworth-s-thor-with-lightning-in-thor-love-and-thunder-jpg.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/chris-hemsworth-s-thor-with-lightning-in-thor-love-and-thunder-jpg.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Thor stands out in Thor: love and thunder<\/p>\n<p>While Greg Furman&#8217;s Thor was the one to fight Olsen&#8217;s Scarlet Witch, Hemsworth&#8217;s God of Thunder could still get his shot at Wanda Maximoff in live-action. In the comics, <strong>after the Scarlet Witch was presumed dead, the character reappeared with Doctor Doom<\/strong>. The MCU could do the same, bringing back Wanda in Avengers: Doomsday.<\/p>\n<p>If she teams up with Robert Downey Jr.&#8217;s Doctor Doom, the Scarlet Witch should fight Hemsworth&#8217;s Thor, who is confirmed for the <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/marvel-upcoming-movies-list-release-dates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">upcoming Avengers movie<\/a>. However, after Wanda was last seen realizing her mistakes and destroying all the Darkholds, the MCU could have a redemption story in mind for her.
