Skarsgård
Charlie Hunnam
Chris Hemsworth

These are all names we've heard that I wouldn't mind in the role. Other names, like Tom Hiddleston - not so much

Here's an interview with him that includes some clips from Star Trek

VIDEO-CLick to Watch!:

Lobo · 05-04-2009, 02:28 PM

I've come to like Hemsworth as a potential Aquaman.

spidey-dude · 05-04-2009, 02:30 PM

Didnt think he would actually be up for the role, he is who i used for my manip of thor over a year and a bit ago

Canis Sapiens · 05-04-2009, 02:49 PM

Wow, it seems that Chris Hemsworth is a real up-and-comer. His voice is good, too. And IMDB says he's 6'3" tall. Looks like he'd be a fine choice. One thing's for sure: they're looking for a young, (kind of) unknown talent. That alone rules out all the wrestlers/meatheads.

Lobo · 05-04-2009, 03:55 PM

Hemsworth seems like the next next big thing. I wish him luck, I definitely think he'll land a lead ina comic flick.

TheCorpulent1 · 05-04-2009, 04:12 PM

I wouldn't mind him as Thor.

Lobo · 05-04-2009, 04:18 PM

Nor would I. Nice manip Spidey-Dude

louiebling$ · 05-04-2009, 04:20 PM

I wouldn't either but skars is still Thor Incarnete.

Lobo · 05-04-2009, 04:27 PM

I'd put Hemsworth as my 3rd, Skars, Hunnam, and the Hemsworth. I'm happy with any of those three.

spidey-dude · 05-04-2009, 04:33 PM

personally i dont get the love for skars?? granted ive never seen anything he has been in but his pics dont make me think god of thunder

That's where I'm at too

Chewy · 05-04-2009, 06:17 PM

All fine choices

Crazy Flakes · 05-04-2009, 08:15 PM

Skars Skars Skars!

ice79 · 05-04-2009, 08:39 PM

I know it's been discussed to death
but I just can't get past the Skars.
he's still my number 1 pick.

2. Hunnam
3. Hemsworth

Dev · 05-04-2009, 08:44 PM

I just hope you guys don't commit mass hype suicide if Skars doesn't get the role.

FaT_tONle · 05-04-2009, 09:04 PM

That shot of him above that dust cloud or whatever that is... you can just picture the Thor costume on him. And the guy already has the mass as far as I'm concerned. I'd kill for arms like that since I am too lazy to seriously lift myself. Besides... Hemsworth was the popular pick for Cap I thought?

Canis Sapiens · 05-04-2009, 10:13 PM

Skars > Hunnam > Hemsworth = all fine choices.

I guess we're on the same page... errr... equation, guys!

broblacksteel · 05-04-2009, 11:47 PM

even with the new muscle skars has, he still needs another 15pds of muscle on him.. at least we agree there are 3 decent choices, sounds like marvel wins no matter who gets cast.... they ALL should be in the same pay range...

I'd say Skars, Hemsworth, and Hunnam for myself.

Kevin Feige talks Thor Casting and Avengers Scripting

Quote:

Kevin Feige's the President of Production at Marvel Studios, aka the Guy Who Knows All about upcoming Marvel films like Thor and The Avengers. When we spoke to him recently, we asked about both.

“We will probably be having cast announcements in the next month or so on Thor," he told us. "We’re looking to cast Loki and Odin soon, and the main female role. And we’ll also hopefully have lockdown shortly, gearing towards the beginning of production, which will be early next year. So I think there will be a lot of announcements between now and then."

"But [director Kenneth] Branagh’s here, we’re prepping, and he’s put together some spectacular animatics already for our first action scene. We’re digging into the second and third now, and we are just embarking on a rewrite of the draft."

And The Avengers?

"Zak Penn is already on board The Avengers [as writer] and he’s spending a lot of his time looking into what we’re doing with Iron Man, Thor and Captain America, seeing how we’re tying it all together. And he’s beginning to outline the script now – he’ll be doing that over the summer."

"All of the Marvel movies leading up to The Avengers will be based in our new facility in Manhattan Beach, in LA. There will be location work that will take us out occasionally, but our home base will always be here. "

So that's the current state of play on the two Marvel-tastic properties. For more from Feige on Iron Man 2 and beyond, check out the next issue of Empire.

Does this mean they had cast Thor already?
