Marvel Studios’ Thor franchise refuses to stop growing. When the first installment released in 2011, many assumed it would only spawn a trilogy, but now it’s a decade later and the series is four films deep with no signs of slowing down. At this point, it seems like the adventures of everyone’s favorite Asgardians are destined to spill over into television, the same way many of Marvel’s other cinematic tentpoles have spun off on Disney+ in the last few years. If this does end up being the case, actress Jamie Alexander has a pretty good idea of what she’d like to see happen.
The former Blindspot star has revealed she’d like Marvel Studios to make a series starring Lady Sif, a fierce warrior and close friend of Thor. Alexander has portrayed Sif in three of four Thor films and has also brought the character to life in guest spots on the shows Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Loki. Now, she’d like fans to help in getting her a show of her own. She pleaded publicly via Variety:
Listen up, guys — if you want to see a Lady Sif series, start pitching your ideas and we’ll put something together and make it happen. It would be so much fun continuing this.

While Sif has been mostly relegated to supporting status in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, she has a long history in the original comics that could offer plenty of material for a solo outing. The character has often been linked romantically with Thor but also has a fun past with fan favorite hero Beta Ray Bill. Perhaps a Disney+ series starring Alexander’s Sif could be the best place to introduce Bill to the wider MCU? Only time, and according to Alexander – the fans – will tell.
