Lady Sif Casting Thread (Jaimie Alexander)

[Lobo]

^I agree. The only difference I really see is darker hair.

“I will never be a waif,” swears Jaimie Alexander. “I want to -market myself as a healthy-looking woman who is an action-star kind of girl.” It appears that won’t be a hard sell: The 25-year-old actress is currently shooting Thor, Kenneth Branagh’s adaptation of the Marvel comic series in which the ancient Norse god comes to life on present-day Earth (Chris Hemsworth stars in the title role). Alexander plays the only female in Thor’s warrior pack—a part which required hours a day in the gym. “I’ve trained with lots of sharp objects for this role,” she notes. (Training is not a new gig for Alexander; she was one of few girls on her Colleyville, Texas, high-school wrestling team.) Prior to Thor’s release next year, Alexander will appear in Love and Other Drugs, a comedy about the first Viagra salesman (Jake Gyllenhaal), in which she plays one of his many romantic interests. “I had the best time with him,” says Alexander of Gyllenhaal. “He would randomly walk around as this gay German character in the makeup trailer. It got me every time.”

Wow, she was on a high school wrestling team.

 

[WillardNation]

I'd let her pin me.

 

[Webhead2006]

[jmc]

I wonder if she ever thought about pro wrestling.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

shes better than that.

 

[jmc]

Won't argue that, just saying though, girl of her size and looks could easily have made it.

 

[ImWithTeamConan]

Excellent. The last thing Hollywood needs more of is rail-thin actresses with eating disorders.

I just saw Jaimie Alexander at Whole Foods. Yes, I gawked creepily. I tried not to but I just couldn't help it. We made eye contact for a second. It was glorious.

You really should have said "I can't wait to see you as Sif".

I literally bet that would have gotten you something, anything.

 

[WillardNation]

I was gonna say, "Hey, you're working with my friend Tait in Thor, right?" and go from there. Cuz my friend actually is in Thor. I don't know as what though. Unfortunately, I froze and she walked away.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I bet Chris already dominated that anyways.

 

[WillardNation]

I have no problem taking Thor's sloppy seconds.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

****ing quoted and sigged.

Sorta OT but I always thought to myself if I ever saw a celebrity I was crushing on I would feign ignorance, pretend I didn't know her and just try to pick her up like a regular dude.
