Darcy Lewis is a co-worker of Jane Foster. She is portrayed by Kat Dennings.
Background
Physical appearance
Darcy is slender and stands at a pretty average height. She's shown as an average college student with black glasses, brown eyes and clean brown hair to match. Darcy is usually seen wearing a red hat.
Personality
Spending her life surrounded by scientists, Darcy is shown to be the embodiment of a lovable sidekick by blatantly showcasing some of their most desirable traits. She is intelligent, though arguably not as smart as Jane since she's oblivious to science, helpful, constantly putting her knowledge to good use, and caring. She and her employers (Jane and Erik) have similar goals: to conduct research ideal for their occupation, first, and in solving the mystery behind the man they found in New Mexico's desert. On the downside, Darcy is incredibly emotional and impulsive, often expressing herself in over-the-top or insensitive ways and tasering Thor without a second thought, though this has been taken by several people for her being outright adorable. Dr. Selvig and Jane are somewhat less charitable in their regard for her, often telling her to be quiet or scoffing at her.
Appearances
Thor
Darcy Lewis is Jane Foster's intern, a quirky but quick-thinking political science major who found herself in the middle of Earth's first contact with an alien civilization, and while she doesn't always understand everything that's happening around her, she doesn't hesitate to speak up about it. When Thor Odinson arrives on Earth, Darcy tasers him with a masterful flick at his busom, claiming that he was freaking her out.
Thor: The Dark World
When Jane discovers an ancient cosmological event affecting the Earth, it's Darcy who has to pick up the slack when Jane disappears.
After Jane goes to Asgard, Darcy and Ian try to contact Selvig while she called him on the phone, Ian watches the news and finds out what happened to Erik, then she and Ian goes to the asylum to seek Erik. When Selvig sees Darcy he does not recognize but almost immediately he remembers her. During the Battle of Greenwich, Darcy kisses Ian for saving her life. Later, she was present when Thor returned to Earth.

Behind the scenes
- In early versions of the movie, Darcy was originally written as a male character.
- As a running gag, she mistakenly, yet repeatedly calls Mjolnir "myuh myuh", after she hears Thor talk about it in the first Thor film. She still has not been informed of the correct way to pronounce it.
