Eons ago, Bor, father of Odin, clashes with the Dark Elf Malekith, who seeks to unleash a weapon known as the Aether on the nine realms. After conquering, Mallika's forces, including enhanced warriors, safeguard the Aether within a stone column. Unbeknownst to Bor, Malekith has a lieutenant Algrim, and a handful of Dark Elves escape into suspended animation.
In present-day Asgard, Loki stands in prison for his war crimes on earth. Meanwhile, Thor, alongside warriors, repels Marauders on Vanaheim, home of their comrade Hogan. It is the final battle in a war to pacify the nine realms, following the reconstruction of the Bifrost, The Rainbow Bridge between realms, which had been destroyed two years earlier. The Asgardian soon learned that the convergence of a rare alignment of the nine realms was imminent. As the event approaches, portals linking the worlds appear at random.
In London, astrophysicist Dr. Jane Foster and her intern Darcy Lewis traveled to an abandoned Factory where such portals appeared, disrupting the laws of physics around them. Separating from the group, Jane is teleported to another world where the Aether infects her. Heimdall alerts Thor that Jane has moved beyond his near all-seeing vision leading Thor to earth. When Thor finds Jane, she inadvertently releases an unearthly force, and Thor returns with her to Asgard. Odin recognizes the Aether and warns that the Aether will not only kill Jane but that its return will herald a catastrophic prophecy.
Malekith, awakened by the Aethers release, turns Algrim into a curse that attacks Asgard. During the battle, Malekith and Halgrim search for Jane, sensing that she contains the Aether. Thor's mother, Frigga, is killed protecting Jane. And Malekith and Algrim are forced to flee without Jane.
Despite Odin's orders not to leave Asgard, Thor reluctantly enlists the help of Loki, who knows of a secret portal this fertile found where they will use Jane to lure and confront Malekith. Away from Asgard, in return, Thor promises Loki vengeance on Malekith for killing their mother. When successfully escaping, Thor, Loki, and Jane had to spark a fight. There, Loki tricks Malekith into drawing the Aether out of Jane. But Thor's attempt to destroy the exposed substance fails. Malekith merges with the Aether and leaves in a ship as Loki is fatally wounded while killing Algrim. Thor, cradling Loki in his arm, promises to tell their father of his sacrifice.
Afterward, Thor and Jane discover another portal in a nearby cave and reunite in London with Darcy and Jane's mentor, Dr. Erik Selvig was briefly institutionalized due to the mental trauma he suffered during Loki's attack on earth. They learned that Malekith plans to restore the Dark Elves to dominance. By unleashing the Aether at the center of the convergence in Greenwich, Thor battles Malekith through various portals and across multiple worlds until one portal separates them, leaving Malekith unopposed on earth. Thor returns in time to help his mortal comrades and use their scientific equipment to transport Malekith to Sparta Fam, where he is crushed by his own damaged ship.
Thor returns to Asgard, where he declines Odin's offer to take the throne and tells Odin of Loki's sacrifice as he leaves. Odin's form transforms into Loki, who is alive and impersonating Odin.
In a mid-credits scene, Volstagg and SIF visit the collector and entrust the Aether to his care, commenting that with the tesseract already in Asgard, having two Infinity stones so close together would be dangerous. As they leave, the collector remarks one five to go in a post-credits scene. Jane and Thor reunite on earth while somewhere in London, a frost monster from Jotunheim accidentally transported to earth during the battle continues to run amok.
