Jane Foster

Jane Foster is a character in the Marvel Comics series Thor and part of Thor's supporting cast. 
==Canon==
For the longest time she has been the nurse working with Dr. Donald Blake, Thor's human alter ego. Later, during the second volume of Thor comics, she becomes a doctor herself. 
In 2014, Foster was revealed to be deemed worthy to wield Thor's hammer Mjolnir when the former is no longer able, adopting the name of Thor, the "Goddess of Thunder", and joining the Avengers. When wielding Mjolnir, Foster gains all the powers of Thor, including superhuman strength, speed, stamina and durability, flight, and control over lightning.
Foster, however, has demonstrated a form of control over Mjolnir that her predecessors lacked, such as changing its trajectory and velocity in mid-throw, and spinning it around her enemies to trap them, abilities neither the original Thor nor any of those aside from Jane have ever been shown capable of. This is not the only time she's become Thor, in a What If? #10 (Aug. 1978) titled "What If Jane Foster Had Found the Hammer of Thor" Jane gains the power of Thor and calls herself Thordis. She eventually gives her power up to Thor but keeps her goddess status since falls in love and later marries Odin. 
Jane also appears in comics outside of the main continunity like the Marvel Ultimate Universe and Thor The Mighty Avenger.

Jane Foster is a character that is generally liked. Many fans cherish her especially character traits and quirks; fanon for example cherishes her love for pop tarts, lack of sleep, and love for science. However there are some that dislike Jane - liking her toward a damsel in distress and a weak character.
When casting news was released for Thor: Ragnarok which revealed that Natalie Portman (who portrays Jane) would not appear in the filmKevin Feige Confirms No Natalie Portman In Thor: Ragnarok. Comicbook.com. May 13, 2016. (Accessed August 22, 2017), fans of the character were outraged for yet another disappearance of a female character in the MCU (the first being Betty Ross and later Pepper Potts where CACW revealed she and Tony had broken up.) and Thor would be getting a new [possible] love interest with a new character to the universe Valkyrie. Kevin Feige later confirmed that the two simply broke up and Portman revealed that she was done as JaneWhere is Natalie Portman's Jane Foster in Thor: Ragnarok?. EW.com. March 14, 2017.
