Thor: Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie needs a Disney Plus spin-off immediately

A Valkyrie show
A Valkyrie project doesn’t have to – and shouldn’t – focus specifically on her finding love. However, it is something that could be addressed. Thor: Love and Thunder showed that she’s still more than willing to flirt, but that doesn’t mean she’s looking for love right now. She might just be looking for a warm body for a short time or a fleeting romance. Letting her grow into love is something that viewers would love, specially if it ends up leading to the Marvel Cinematic Universe debut of Brunnhilde. Then again, maybe we could see that she’s happy just the way she is.
Besides the love, there’s the adventure that a Valkyrie project would entail. Valkyrie is King of Asgard. Her time as king hasn’t been addressed much and should be. Not just the politics of it; that’s not the only thing that viewers want to see. People would also be tuning in to see action, adventure, love, and beings from other realms. All of that can happen in New Asgard (or Tønsberg).
Thor: Love and Thunder showed the children of different races, not just from Earth and Asgard. Getting into that would be amazing. There must be beings that have and will come to New Asgard looking for trouble or a home. This could also be the way for Jaimie Alexander to appear again as Sif and perhaps even get her own spin-off.
