Diora Baird's Thor Audition was for a "Pretty but Sturdy" Character

Sif? Valkyrie? The Enchantress? Who? Seems like ALL Asgardian females fit that description, and Diora won't say.
Here's the info from MTV Splash Page:

Actress Diora Baird announced on Twitter this week that she had an audition for a role in the upcoming Kenneth Branagh-directed “Thor.”

According to Baird, she had an audition for a character described as “pretty, but sturdy with muscle.”

“Damn type casting,” she wrote.

However, when asked which character she auditioned for, Baird responded, “I can't say. I'll go to jail. For real. Had to sign my soul away.”

If Baird gets the part, her soul would be signed and sold to Branagh along with Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, and Tom Hiddleston as Loki.

Loken = Low Budget

:P
teabag - 8/23/2009, 10:49 AM
Diora for Enchantress. Loken for a fluffer.

Leee is is catcher. The truth comes out. Diora is a man!!! You need to get out more.





SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 10:51 AM

LEEE777 - 8/23/2009, 10:59 AM
@LEEE777:I gotta go with Diora Baird. She looks way better for Enchantress then any other actress.
Ozymandias - 8/23/2009, 11:01 AM
LEEE @ Are you her agent?? cus if you are you havent helped HEHE :P
teabag - 8/23/2009, 11:02 AM
DIORA is prababy LADY SIF lol!

Hell she cant even act???
LEEE777 - 8/23/2009, 11:03 AM
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

and Loken is Dame Maggie Smith lol :)
teabag - 8/23/2009, 11:06 AM
Diora is gorgeous.
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 11:07 AM
I hope shes not Dame Maggie Smith hehehehehehhehe! :P
LEEE777 - 8/23/2009, 11:08 AM
Well, i want Diora Baird for Black Cat...

Black Cat

...but she would be a good Enchantress! :)


JoshW - 8/23/2009, 11:10 AM
I see Beil as Sif and Diora as Enchantress. If you think Kenneth Branagh is going to hire a thrid rate actress like Loken you are crazy. He has to much on the line. Diora and Beil are not the best to chose from but it is a significant upgrade from Loken.
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 11:11 AM
ENCHANTRESS =






No contest! ; )

DIORA BAIRDS either VALKRIE or LADY SIF! : D

Heck yeah, she would make a good BLACK CAT!
LEEE777 - 8/23/2009, 11:12 AM
We get the point Leee.
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 11:13 AM
I think I will have to agree with LEE on this.
nightwing345 - 8/23/2009, 11:15 AM
LEE: meh, shes pretty average looking - you could find 100 girls who look like her on any show like 90210! she's hot but shes nothing special IMO!

Now, Diora Baird on the other hand...

A2
JoshW - 8/23/2009, 11:16 AM
Loken is a HORRIBLE actress. Give me 2 good movies she's been in, or 2 good performances she's had.

Don't know who Baird is though.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:17 AM
LEEE.....Good luck with tylers request....

You wish @ JOSH! ; D
LEEE777 - 8/23/2009, 11:19 AM
He won't even answer it, he'll just criicise Ackles or Neeson.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:19 AM
TYLER: just Google 'Diora Baird Playboy' and you'll know more than enough about her, lol! ;)
JoshW - 8/23/2009, 11:20 AM
Baird's hot as hell though hehe...
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:20 AM
All in favor for Diora say "aye"...


aye!
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 11:21 AM
Loken is pretty average I do agree but I bet you can find 100 girls with just as much plastic and silicone as Baird. Maybe Loken isnt right for the role but neither is Baird.

nightwing345 - 8/23/2009, 11:22 AM
AYE!

Way to answer my question Lee.


InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:24 AM
Aye


Got another pic of Loken for ya LEEE...





:)
teabag - 8/23/2009, 11:25 AM
JOSH @ How about stop being sheep mate an make your own mind up 4 a change! ; D


She screams = ENCHANTRESS!!!


LEEE777 - 8/23/2009, 11:25 AM
nightwing345: ive read a few interviews with her (and seen her, shall we say revealing pics) and there aint no silicone there! :D
JoshW - 8/23/2009, 11:25 AM
LEE: im no "sheep" - man, ive wanted Baird for Black Cat since I did my Spider-Man fan cast a few months ago! Out of the characters listed she'd be best for Enchantress and im sorry but Loken looks like any actress from a CW teeny bop drama! ;)
JoshW - 8/23/2009, 11:25 AM
Heh heh.
LEEE777 - 8/23/2009, 11:27 AM
Loken should be in Sci-Fi original movies. That's the only place her "acting" may be seen as decent.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:27 AM
Aye!!!!!!! for Diora!
Ozymandias - 8/23/2009, 11:29 AM
All I'm sayin is Loken is in my opinion the hottest of the two and if yall say not her than give me another choice. NOT BAIRD!
nightwing345 - 8/23/2009, 11:29 AM
LEEE@ if this is Loken being seductive then she has a long way to go to be Enchantress.....






:)
teabag - 8/23/2009, 11:30 AM
Loken: Starred in Uwe Boll's Bloodrayne, Terminator 3, Uwe Boll's In The Name of The King.

That's not such a bad track record, is it?
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:33 AM

TYLER: wow, just when i was sure that shed be awful in the part you manage to convine me that shed be ever worse than awful!!

Loken was terrible in Terminator when all she had to do was to act like a robot.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:37 AM
Imagine Diora with red hair, green eyes and freckles, she looks a lot like my fiance. MMMMMMM

That film sucked.
Ozymandias - 8/23/2009, 11:51 AM
Yes, yes it did Ozy.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 11:52 AM
They are both gorgeous but it doesn't seem to bother any of you that Loken is pretty bad..at least in Terminator 3 she was, and this other Baird chick is a glamor model! Why not just cat a Pussy Cat Doll as WW, Vin Diesel for Namor and Kate Beckinsale for a [frick]ing German while we are at it!!...oh, hang on...

Teabag, i think i need some photographic evidence of that!

betaraybob - 8/23/2009, 12:57 PM
Well i definitely dont consider myself European - Im Welsh but if anyone asks id say that i consider myself to be British - it kinda annoys me when people call the UK 'England', lol! The UK is made up of England, Wales, Scotland and N. Ireland! :)

teabag: wow, shes nicer than Eva Green, lol! ;)

Talking of beautiful ladies...

diora-baird-003

:D

TYLER: im not really suprised that LEE didnt answer your question - though i am kinda suprised that he didnt reply by saying "tAckles"


JoshW - 8/23/2009, 1:11 PM
I'm not either Josh.

Branagh would NEVER cast Loken in any of his movies. Could you imagine seeing Kristanna "TX" Loken in this movie? It fits just as well as a Pussy Cat Doll as Wonder Woman.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 1:24 PM
I don't see Loken as a good fit for Enchantress at all.besides the lack of acting skills, she has a more athletic look than a seductive look. the Enchantress would have to stand out from all the other female characters.
dave2009 - 8/23/2009, 1:35 PM
TYLER: well, Lokens performance in T3 wasnt great (ok,it was terrible) so i have to agree, i cant see Branagh casting her for a role in any movie he's in charge of!

dave2009: i agree 100%, and thats why i think Baird is perfect for the role of Enchantress - she really does stand out from the crowd for...well, two very big reasons, hehe! ;)
JoshW - 8/23/2009, 1:42 PM
Loken for Enchantress?!?!?!?! Have you seen Loken actually act, because she can't act her way out of a wet sac. And I've seen her attempt to in more than just T3.

InTylerWeTrust, amen!
TheMyth - 8/23/2009, 1:52 PM
TheMyth - it's good to see you are alive.

Loken was in the L Word and she was gawd awful.
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 2:00 PM
She was in Bloodrayne the movie. That's an automatic NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

She may be hot, but that doesn't mean she can play the character.

Branagh has intelligence. Look at his line up:

Chris Hemsworth.
Tom Hiddleston.
Natalie Portman.
Kristanna Loken? How does that make any sense?
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 2:02 PM
Tyler - Loken could make a cameo as a Frost Giant. LMAO.
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 2:04 PM
LOL :)
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 2:10 PM
i would split her in half. but where is the muscle?
grif - 8/23/2009, 2:20 PM
Betaraybob@ thanks for noticing


Grif@ which one....Loken, Baird or the missis?? lol


Baird 4 Enchantress :P
teabag - 8/23/2009, 2:21 PM
Well in fairness Tyler, Loken is actually more well known than Hemsworth and Hiddleston! Not that i think she's in their league, but we really don't know how they are going to do in these parts yet so i wouldn't count the old chickens just yet. Plus, as bad Loken is, she has been im more movies than Baird right?..who has been in..none? Neither of them should go anywhere near this..unless its Baird as a mute Valykrie warrior..with very little on!

RorMachine - 8/23/2009, 2:22 PM
SirPrize: lol, im not sure with her acting skills if she could even pull that part off! maybe if they run low on money and need some help with the sets Loken could pull off this role...

tree

JoshW - 8/23/2009, 2:22 PM
ROR: she played the green alien that Kirk got off with in Star Trek, lol!

startrek_2
JoshW - 8/23/2009, 2:24 PM
Ror: I'm not saying Loken isn't as well known. I'm saying she wouldn't be able to hold her own with them.

And that with the type of casting he's been going with for Thor, it would be very out of place for him to cast Loken.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 2:27 PM
I can't wait for Comic Con next year when they bring Hemsworth, Hiddleston, and Branagh. Comic Con 10 is going to be epic.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 2:32 PM
Josh that was Rachel Nichols!
RorMachine - 8/23/2009, 2:41 PM
MMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...Rachel Nichols. Damn!
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 2:42 PM
ROR: really!? i was looking for a list of films she's been in after i read your comment and found this...

Maxim: So you’re an alien?

Baird: Um, I would assume so—unless I was born with a skin disease. In the original series, there were these infamous green women that Captain Kirk would hit on, and so without giving too much away, I’m one of those green girls.


Apparently she played an 'Orion'? i thought it was the green girl above lol!?!

JoshW - 8/23/2009, 2:45 PM
ah well, whoever she did or didnt play she's still hot! ;)

How do we know Baird couldnt act her tits off...everyone has to start and get noticed somewhere....we need new talent instead of recycling the same old actresses.......otherwise Jolie and Beil will play everything :(

RorMachine - 8/23/2009, 3:01 PM
teabag & ROR: huh, i guess she was just one of the other green alien girls or maybe her scene got cut!?

I saw her in Two and a Half Men and she definitely wasnt a bad actress but seeing her act in a sitcom where they pause after every sentence for the canned laughter might not be the best place to check out her acting skills!
JoshW - 8/23/2009, 3:07 PM
She's probably faked so many orgasems that she deserves an oscar.....bless her :)
teabag - 8/23/2009, 3:07 PM
Ror - Nobody ever heard of Neill Blomkamp either and he rocked District 9, along with the cast. Peter Jackson made wise choices. I bet you Kenneth Branagh will too.
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 3:08 PM
Good point SirPrize..:)

Both SirPrize and Ror make good points.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/23/2009, 3:19 PM
KRISTANNA LOKEN?!?

Anyone who has come in contact with Uwe Boll, and she did, willingly, TWICE, will taint ANYTHING they come in contact with.

Kristanna Loken must NEVER be seen near the set of "The Avengers Family" of films.
BaronBubba - 8/23/2009, 3:20 PM
I've seen Diora act and she is a very good actress, unlike a certain beautiful but z-grade actress Leee has crawled up the ass of! @Ror trust Branagh, he knows what he's doing in his casting! I have every confidence in him and Diora. Diora could play Enchantress or Valkyrie but my money would be on Enchantress.

@Tea, your missus is very pretty, you're an extremely lucky Man! "Nuff said!

And @Leee, Diora looks like a man?! Man, you need to get your eyes examined!
DDD - 8/23/2009, 3:21 PM
I'm on the fence with Avatar. So far Avatar looks like it's just eye candy. I'm not making any judgement calls either. I don't expect to start seeing a teaser till December of 2010.
SirPrize - 8/23/2009, 3:24 PM
DDD@ thanks my friend :), and we know LEEE cant see properly cus he sees Namor in Diesel ..:(

We also know Lee can't see properly because he sees Whispery Worthington as Cap :)

teabag - 8/23/2009, 3:39 PM
I think "Pretty, but sturdy" is a good sign for Enchantress. Diora fits it well... Valkyrie and Sif would have to be a bit more muscle...

As for Avatar, I'm still gonna see it in IMAX, but having seen what I have, my interest is greatly diminished. Thats what I get for falling for the hype, I guess.
