There's also some Thor mixed in. Offspring of a god from an ancient polytheistic religion in a mythological paradise isolated from the real world is sent to Earth to be a fish out of water, fall in love quickly with a human who at first seemed quite disagreeable, find themselves embraced by their earthly friends, and fight a big CGI monster man with horns at the end, only to lose their human loved one (either through death or merely separation) in a way that was avoidable. Both start naive like children and seem to grow up, despite already being adults and both being hundreds of years old. Also both have to realize their real power is inside them, which is less about being motivated or heroic and more about literally controlling lightning.
(This description more or less works for all three Thor movies and more or less also Disney's Hercules, so the real conclusion is that it's just a bunch of tropes.)
