It's one of the most heartfelt Marvel movies to date and even if it has a touch of comedy, it is also dramatic especially for the titular character as he takes on a new journey. In the end-credits scene of Thor: Love and Thunder, Jane is seen to enter the Asgardian afterlife, Valhalla, and it raises the question of whether Captain America could do the same once he passes.

Can Captain America Reach Asgardian Afterlife Valhalla Like Jane In Thor: Love and Thunder?

The end-credits scene of Thor: Love and Thunder seemingly made differences to the rules of the Asgardian afterlife, Valhalla, after Jane entered the realm following her death in the final minutes of the movie. There, Jane met Heimdall at the gates of the afterlife.

Before, only Asgardians can enter the afterlife, Valhalla, but as Jane wielded the Mjolnir and became the Mighty Thor, after her death, she asceneded into Valhalla and met Heimdall, an Asgardian hero, there. With this scene, it suggests that even mortals can enter the Asgardian afterlife.

This brings Captain America into the equation. Steve Rogers wielded the same Mjolnir that Jane used in Thor: Love and Thunder and she died as a goddess, dissolving into golden dust, before getting to Valhalla.

There are two possibilities, Cap may or may not be able to enter Valhalla.

Captain America may enter Valhalla much like Jane because he wielded the Mjolnir and probably died a hero as well. Cap was able to summon the powers of Thor and use it in his final battle against Thanos in Endgame.

However, there's also the possibility that wielding the Mjolnir wouldn't be enough for Cap to get into Valhalla. To start, when he wielded the Mjolnir, he didn't transform into Thor, much like Jane, thus, he haven't attained the same god-like stature as Jane.

Then, there's that consideration that those who get into Valhalla died a valiant warrior's death, just like King Valkyrie who thought of it in the movie. Jane died fighting Gorr and Cap, well, it's not shown how he died or if he already died, and that may not be a valiant warrior's death at all.

Do you think Captain America can enter Valhalla?
