While not being able to comment on the matter just yesterday, comedian Chuck actor Zachary Levi proudly confirmed today that he'll be replacing Josh Dallas in the dashing role of Fandral in Marvel's Alan Taylor-directed Thor sequel. In addition, during his appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Levi seemingly confirms he'll appear at San Diego Comic-Con this weekend to promote the film. Watch the two videos embedded below!
While some Thor 2 updates should be expected during Marvel Studios' Iron Man 3 panel this weekend, Zachary saying "we got a big event this weekend [at comic-con]" alludes to the possibility that the sequel's entire cast may be among "surprise guests" mentioned in the press release. Do you think Zachary Levi spoiled the big surprise?
Exploring Thor's relationship with the Asgardian all-father Odin, as well earthbound companion Jane Foster, “Thor 2” follows the God of Thunder to other worlds beyond Asgard and earth. With the Warriors Three tagging along, among other Asgardian warriors, more mythical Norse creatures are expected. “Thor 2” stars Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins, Tom Hiddleston, Mads Mikkelsen, Idris Elba, Jaimie Alexander, Zachary Levi, Tadanobu Asano, and Ray Stevenson. Alan Taylor (“Game of Thrones”) takes over directorial duties from Kenneth Branagh, who helmed the first “Thor” film. And “Thor 2” hits theaters November 15, 2013.
