Dominic Cooper as Fandral in Thor?

While giving an interview with Movieline, the reporter noticed that Dominic Cooper was holding a script for Thor!

In an interview with Movieline, British actor Dominic Cooper was asked if he had been approached to play a role in Thor by journalist Kyle Buchanan who seemed to have good cause to investigate the matter as Cooper was holding script sides from Thor during the interview!

"You know! You're looking at these very confidential pages," Cooper confessed after getting caught red handed. "It says 'confidential,' Kyle!"

Now, there's no indiction what role that the actor has been cast in but Fandral and Cooper's physique's certainly match!

Verily, the plot thickens...!

	That would be cool. StrangemannX09 - 10/19/2009, 3:09 PM
	The guy seemed pretty cool on never mind the buzzcocks, never seen him act as i cant bring myself to watch Mama Mia ;P teabag - 10/19/2009, 3:11 PM
	Who isn't being cast in thor? I'm starting to think that they're casting all these people so they wont have to pay for extras. This movie is gonna be epic. Screw spidey 4, this is gonna be way better. supermarioworldE - 10/19/2009, 3:12 PM
	If he is its for = LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 3:13 PM
	Physique, yeah. Face, no. His eyes are really far apart. He looks like a [frick]ing pug. BmanHall - 10/19/2009, 3:13 PM
	Never heard of the guy before (I think) Man, certainly seems like a lot of casting buzz around Thor is going around, am I right? InTylerWeTrust82 - 10/19/2009, 3:15 PM
	Your right, probably all BS though TYLER lol! Well i know DE NIRO is! ; D LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 3:20 PM
	TYLER: Yeah, theres a lot of Thor rumours going around online right now...some actual confirmed news would be great though! Im not sure if Ive seen him in anything but he definitely looks right for Fandral! This movie might be the best CBM of the year depending on who's cast as Captain America, lol! ;) LEE: De Niro should be cast as Dum Dum Dugan, lol! :D joshw24 - 10/19/2009, 3:22 PM
	Mate, this is nearly word for word with MTV SPLASH PAGE! Lol!! (Joking) Verily, the plot thickens... ; D Still good news though, he'd be a fine COOP! JOSH @ DUM DUM, hmm, id still like it if he was doing a MARVEL character justice, one in the PUNISHER Universe, thats where DE NIRO belongs an it would bring back life to PUNISHER thats for sure!!! LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 3:25 PM
	I just want to know who's going to be like Odin (assuming Blessed isn't cast), Balder, Heimdall, and Enchantress. I don't know about best CBM of the year Josh, I'm really saving that title for Green Lantern :) Though this I'm sure will be giving GL a run for his money. InTylerWeTrust82 - 10/19/2009, 3:27 PM
	Damnit when are we gonna get the Captain America anouncment ;( Tyler@i see this beating GL hands down ;) teabag - 10/19/2009, 3:28 PM
	This is where DE NIRO belongs, taking on FRANK!! LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 3:32 PM
	TYLER: Im not sure...I still think that Captain America might be the best of the year..! (As long as two certain actors that one CBM user has a huge man crush for arent cast!) ;D teabag: Im sure that someone from Marvel said it would be October..! But there havent even been any rumours! :( joshw24 - 10/19/2009, 3:33 PM
	TEABAG @ As much as i like THOR! No way in hell is it going to top GREEN LANTERN dude!! LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 3:33 PM
	I don't think he's good for Fandral.He's supposed to be this handsome, dashing character.Now I'm not good at judging other guy's looks, be he does look kinda weird.If Jude Law is in the movie, I think he'd be a better Fandral. kenny38606 - 10/19/2009, 3:34 PM
	JOSH @ You can talk about MAN CRUSHES!! LMAO! : D LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 3:35 PM
	I just have a love for epic sci-fi space operas. Green Lantern is one of my favorite CB characters, and it's got Martin Campbell and Ryan Reynolds (I'm sure most don't count the latter as a good thing, but I do). I'm sure Thor will be fantastic, though I think GL suits me better. I have my doubts about Cap, but I'm sure it will ultimately turn out great. Ted Levine for Dum Dum Dugan! InTylerWeTrust82 - 10/19/2009, 3:36 PM
	LEE: You know Im only kidding bud, lol! ;) TYLER: As someone who isnt a huge DC fan, Im not all that excited for GL but Im sure it'll be good! 2011 will be an amazing year though with Captain America, Thor, Spider-Man 4 and Green Lantern! joshw24 - 10/19/2009, 3:40 PM
	CAP'S MOVIE WILL FAIL...I THINK OUTTA THE 2, THOR COMES OUT ON TOP dellamorte1872 - 10/19/2009, 3:40 PM
	As a rule Space epic movies other than Star Wars and SOME Trek movies fail because it's poorly done and it just seems a tougher genre to sell to the general public plus GL could come off a bit camp power wise to that public....i hope its a good movie but id want it to do big money aswell so that DC make more movies other than Batman :) teabag - 10/19/2009, 3:41 PM
	teabag: Thor is also going to be very tough to sell, maybe even tougher than GL, which I really don't see as too big a problem with selling it to audiences. InTylerWeTrust82 - 10/19/2009, 3:47 PM
	Tyler@ Very true but with Marvel Superhero Squad attracting the youngens early and showcasing thor plus Disneys great advertising skills i think Thor will reach the publics awarness more :P Im not saying that box office means they will be good movies , i just want them to make money so it doesnt damage future movies :) teabag - 10/19/2009, 3:53 PM
	@InTylerWeTrust82 Ted Levine simply embodies that guy and his characteristics...the facial structure simply screams him also Good choice Whispers68 - 10/19/2009, 4:00 PM
	teabag: I want them to make money too, especially with DC movies, because that may finally get WB off their asses and kick the CBM's into high gear! Whispers: Thanks dude! InTylerWeTrust82 - 10/19/2009, 4:06 PM
	Tyler@ Im not a big DC fan but il sit through as many needed to get a Damn Flash Movie made :) teabag - 10/19/2009, 4:12 PM
	When does Thor come out MrAnonymous - 10/19/2009, 4:24 PM
	@josh, great article. Never seen this guy and I am not really up to speed on Thor or any of those characters. The only reason I am looking forward this flick is because i love cbm's and a pretty big Marvel fan. spideysweb - 10/19/2009, 4:32 PM
	2011 is gonna be the year of the comicbookmovie 4real. Cap may not be the most extravagant movie of the year, but it will def have more meaning, and bring more emotion back into what it means to be a comic book fan. If DC does play their cards right GL may come out on top. OF course I'm rooting for Spidey to have lizard and Kraven if so i'm gonna go see it eight times just to make sure it ends up on top. StrangemannX09 - 10/19/2009, 4:32 PM
	May 20, 2011 InTylerWeTrust82 - 10/19/2009, 4:33 PM
	Johnson was the Visual art director for Empire strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and Raiders of the Lost Ark so im hoping he will bring that flair to Captain America :) teabag - 10/19/2009, 4:35 PM
	teabag: Wow, I did not know that about Johnston. That's pretty damn cool I have to admit, even though I don't think he's the best director. He's mostly hit and miss. He's had great movies (The Rocketeer), and also really bad ones (JurasSUCK Park 3) InTylerWeTrust82 - 10/19/2009, 4:38 PM
	Cap will rock i don't care what anyone says. StrangemannX09 - 10/19/2009, 4:40 PM
	Though Wolfman looks like the sht! InTylerWeTrust82* - 10/19/2009, 4:44 PM
	teabag: I also didnt know that about Johnston - I was a little worried about him being director but you've just calmed my nerves, lol! :) LEE: You were right so I changed the text in the article before it got put on main! I actually think its a little better now! :D joshw24 - 10/19/2009, 5:00 PM
	Alright, I'll fess up. . . I'm playing Fandral in the Thor movie. This feeb is my fluffer. MultiPurposePoni - 10/19/2009, 5:04 PM

I tell ya tho this guy has an impressive background and with what other people of said about this being like Raiders i now beleive them :) teabag - 10/19/2009, 5:26 PM
	JOSH @ Good stuff!! ; D MULTI @ Lol!! LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 5:34 PM

	Lol!! ; D LEEE777 - 10/19/2009, 6:06 PM
	teabag: Just think if this was good ol' MisterUnderhill's article that image would be deleted for being sexually exciting...but thats not how things work here! ;D Oh and Jennifer Connely's boobs are the only reason i ever watch 'Inventing the Abbotts' when its on TV! The words 'topless' and 'bouncy' spring to mind... :) joshw24 - 10/19/2009, 6:06 PM
	I used to flog the dolphin to J Connely's fun bags MultiPurposePoni - 10/19/2009, 6:09 PM
	Thanks guys.... its about time! B@@BiES 4 Life Holmes! shibazz - 10/19/2009, 6:36 PM
	Isn't this the man who played The Seeker? If he is cast in Thor as well as Jude Law as was reported a day or 2 ago,he is probably Baldor.Law is Fandral all the way. Hawksblueyes - 10/19/2009, 6:37 PM
	ass to ass (Connely style) Betty - 10/19/2009, 6:51 PM
	Hey guys. I just wanted to let you know that my X-Men 4 story is in Fan Fic and i'd like to know what you think. Check it out if you want it cleans up most of the problems from X-3 nicely! until then THEHAWK abides. THEHAWK - 10/19/2009, 7:36 PM
	Yep, looks kinda like Baldor to me. But then again, there are SO many Asgardians Branagh will probably try to cast as many as possible will experienced actors. MultiPurposePoni - 10/19/2009, 7:47 PM
	@teabag- Great pic. Oh, and I love the new avatar. lol @joshw24- Mmmmmmm, boobies... lmao @MultiPurposePoni + Betty- HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Magicfingers - 10/19/2009, 8:33 PM
	He looks like he'd make a decent Balder! MovieTheaterLad - 10/19/2009, 9:08 PM
	2011 will be the best overall movie year since 1983!!!check out the list of 1983 movies and u'll realize that that year can never be beat!!! Kes - 10/19/2009, 9:49 PM
	He could do Balder I bet. I could see that. DarthMulder - 10/19/2009, 9:53 PM
	@ Kes: ah yes... 83 was a great year for movies. Return of The Jedi. Something Wicked This way Comes. Videodrome. Nice. I know you guys will say I am a heretic for saying this but there is just NO WAY all that stuff can possibly beat 2011. Green Lantern, Thor, Captain America, AND Spider-Man 4 ALL IN ONE YEAR!!!! That will be the most Super Ultra mega uber epic movie year of all time!!! DarthMulder - 10/19/2009, 10:05 PM
	I miss Conelly's boobs. They were full of epic goodness... I await the day that they return until then THEHAWK abides THEHAWK - 10/19/2009, 10:05 PM
	Balder the Brave, Loki, The Warriors Three, The Enchantress, The Executioner, Odin, Lady Sif, the Frost Giants, Surtur, Ulik Wow! Whatever way they go this movie should be epic. hewilldefytheirgravity - 10/19/2009, 11:43 PM
	Even better news, luffy has dropped the shitty videos! wards - 10/20/2009, 4:22 AM

	@Simonsonrules: thanks!!! JerzeyHellboy - 10/23/2009, 1:41 PM
	Well since the Warriors Three were always good for a little comic relief, it may sound a little weird, but I could see Cary Elwes playing Fandral....it could work !?!? Nemesys - 10/26/2009, 9:50 AM
