Marvel has officially released the Thor-themed Avengers: Doomsday trailer online, with an X-Men trailer set to replace it in theaters.

The Thor trailer, below, launched in theaters last week ahead of Disney’s Avatar: Fire and Ash, replacing the Steve Rogers / Captain America trailer that had kicked off the Avengers: Doomsday hype train a year out from the movie’s release.

The teaser shows Chris Hemsworth’s Thor (this time with the short-haired look from the much-loved and hugely successful Thor Ragnarok) pray to his father, Odin (played by Anthony Hopkins in the MCU), calling for the “strength of the All-Fathers” so he may “fight once more… defeat one more enemy and return home to her.”

That’s a reference to Thor's adopted daughter, Love (Gorr the God Butcher's resurrected daughter from Thor: Love and Thunder). Here is Thor’s prayer in full:

Father...

all my life, I have answered every call...

to honor, duty, to war.

But now fate has given me something I never sought...

a child...

a life untouched by the storm.

Lend me the strength of the All-Fathers...

so that I may fight once more.

Defeat one more enemy

and return home to her.

Not as a warrior

but as warmth.

To teach her not battle

but stillness.

The kind I never knew.

Please Father heed my words.

What we’ve seen so far of Avengers: Doomsday does seem to revolve around children. The Fantastic Four: First Steps ended with Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom appearing to kidnap Franklin Richards. The Steve Rogers / Captain America teaser for Avengers: Doomsday shows Chris Evans’ character holding a baby, presumably his child with Peggy Carter.
