Official Thor Casting Thread

[Dog Brother #1]

My guess: some kind of frost giant.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Could be. He's got experience playing a giant already, if that matters.

 

[Webhead2006]

i heard of this guy the other day.

Joeseph Gatt joins Thor. It kinda bugs me that they assum he's playing Skurge because he's bald. I seriously doubt he'd be in the film.

wow! why isn't this on the main page?

 

[Manowar]

Maybe he will play the Absorbing Man...He's got the look!!

 

[Webhead2006]

absorbing man isnt likely in the script, like others have said he could be skruge dude or maybe a giant/what not creature.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The Absorbing Man could make sense as a minor villain. Thor's going to spend more time on Earth in the finished movie than he did in the leaked script, so I wouldn't be surprised if they throw an Earth villain at him instead of sticking solely to Asgardian threats.

 

[Webhead2006]

i guess so i just dont know enough about thor's threats so i dont know who is more likely then not.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

That's why Vartha, myself, and other Thor fanatics are around.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea its always nice to have folks who know more fill in the little details. Sure i may know next to nothing on thor but i cant wait to go see it in 2011.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, given that Thor's not exactly the most popular character in Marvel's stable, I hope there are plenty more like you.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea

we have our Frigga

Rene Russo

 

[echostation]

I hope they change her hair to white to reflect the character... My only issue is how will this be done? most hair dyes like in wallmart are brown, blonde and black or darker colors, nothing for white?

Will Rene have to cut her hair short and regrow it before shooting?

 

[Chewy]

Is that a serious post?

Now that we have Frigga, let's hope for Balder next

 

[NoirMan82]

Is that a serious post?

Now that we have Frigga, let's hope for Balder next

I'm making the official announcement on the casting of Balder here and now; I will be playing Balder.

 

[Webhead2006]

cool news, yea either she will dye hair or do a wig job.

 

[Chewy]

This'll be Russo's first movie in over 5 years

Rene Russo

Damn.... what a cast

 

[THOR]

Nice! Rene Russo is a great addition!

 

[Sawyer]

I dont know enough about the character to say whether Russo is a good or bad choice.

 

[Compi716]

Rene Russo?! Damn, this cast is really getting ridiculous. Watching this movie is going to be like viewing an acting talent show.



That's a good thing, by the way.

 

[Webhead2006]

I know kenneth has asemble a great cast.

 

[R_Hythlodeus]

astonishing choice for frigga.

 

[nightwing06]

Rene Russo is sexy,just watch The Thomas Crown Affair!!!
