Official Thor Casting Thread

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm not a fan of horror movies in general, but the few I do like tend to be more psychological than gore-filled.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

They're not 'horror'. They're 'thriller'. That's how I differentiate them anyway.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Let's not forget the Elwes was the loveable loser who couldnt do 'the claw' correctly in Liar Liar.

 

[anrrd_2]

bwahaha forgot all about that one... and HOTSHOTS!


He was also completely bamfish in Kiss the Girls, Twister, Glory, Days of Thunder


....and lets not forget his part in THE *****IN JUNGLE BOOK!

 

[Brian Braddock]

God, yeah. He was the slimy bad guy Jonas in Twister.

Odds are, we've all seen Elwes in a lot of things, it just takes a bit of reminding the subconscious memory.

 

[Chewy]

Obviously there's no way of knowing if this is legit, and I'd bet on it probably not being true given how random it is and how unreliable the source is, but...

Exclusive scoop: Ray Stevenson is going to play Volstagg in Thor. Brilliant!

SOURCE

 

[daderade]

wow not bad.

 

[louiebling$]

Punisher and Volstagg?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, I'm taking that with a huge grain of salt. They could put him in a fat suit--hell, they'll probably have to put whoever plays Volstagg in a fat suit--but there's nothing about Stevenson that says "Volstagg" to me.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Definitely Heimdall. Maybe Balder or Hogun, but not Volstagg

 

[Sawyer]

Yeah, he doesnt seem right for Volstagg at all.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Has he had any kind of comedic roles? I only know him from Rome and Punisher: War Zone, both of which were totally "hardcore badass" roles.

 

[daderade]

oh..i thought they meant Ray Winstone....

 

[TheCorpulent1]

You know who Ray Stevenson would be great for? Heimdall.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Look above. I definitely agree

 

[daderade]

heck yes.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Look above. I definitely agree

Haha, my bad, I must've missed your post.

 

[Webhead2006]

interesting if choosen i guess marvel felt sorry for him for how punisher warzone turned out and wanted to give him another marvel film chance if its true. Though how crediable is the source?

 

[cerealkiller182]

Its a twitter account. I just naturally dont believe it but news has broken on twitter a few times before

 

[batsone]

Has he had any kind of comedic roles?

Did you not watch PWZ????t:

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Actually, I didn't. It was one of those movies I told myself I'd get around to renting, then never did.

 

[BoredGuy]

They should get Russell Crowe or some other big-name badass to be Heimdall....

Bruce Willis? LOL, jk...

 

[Spidey-Quad]

Russell Crowe as Mangog and he could take Odin's god phone and beat Thor down with it! It would be awesome! Then Thor could hammer him with Mljdolnir!

 

[anrrd_2]

I've wanted Crowe for Odin for years! back when Thor was supposed to come out in 2008 lol. still think he would be awesome for it.

What type of Odin are they going for anyway? The eternally youthful god-of-gods? or the older, wiser type? i say Russel Crowe for the first...Anthony Hopkins for the latter

 

[Spidey-Quad]

Only if he has a beat down phone!
