Thor

Release Date: July 16th, 2010 - Marvel Studios
Summary: The official movie summary hasn't been released yet, although the current script reveals a more "Lord of the Rings" style tale--taking place in a fantasy world rather than our own modern-day. The comics story goes like this... Descended from Norse gods, Thor nearly started a war by violating a truce with his family's ancient enemy --the Frost Giants. Odin, his father, banished the young god of thunder to Earth without his memory, to teach Thor how to behave as a mere mortal. After a decade as an earthly doctor, Donald Blake was drawn to Norway, and a subsequent encounter with a race of warmongering aliens. While hiding out in a cave, Blake found a mysterious wooden cane that turned out to be the enchanted hammer Mjolnir -- which transformed him back into the mighty Thor. He drove off the alien invaders and took his place with the Avengers. Shaking off the Blake persona, Thor was soon forced to assume the human identity of EMS technician Jake Olsen. Thor is forever torn between his divine home -- the hallowed halls of Asgard -- and the troubled lands of his adopted home, Earth.

Which Asgardian will he portray in Marvel's comic adaptation?

On his Twitter page yesterday John Favreau (director of Iron Man) stated that he met and had lunch with Kenneth Branagh (director of Thor). I instantly wondered if this could mean anything.

As I was scouring the internet for comic book movie information, I ran across an interesting idea. What if Feore was to play a villain to bridge Asgard to the Earth's realm?

if the film was to star triple h as thor it would die a thousand deaths! why would marvel backstep to the early 90's to cast a person that is known for being a passable wrestler? The Rock hasnt done a great deal of noteworthy films so not a great example! i remember seeing triple h's acting skills in blade 3 and to be honest he was more then dire in fact every scene with him in was hulk hogan cringe worthy level! Even wwe films canceled his film project because even they know he could not carry a film his acting is beyond weak at best. Hit a home run my ass

I have to agree. Triple H is a horrible actor. If this film follows the summary at the top of the page it will probably suck as well. If it's handled with a kind of Lord of the Rings flair or something where Thor is treated with the respect he deserves (unlike in the TV movie the Return of the Incredible Hulk) this movie could work.

I CAN TELL U ABOUT WWE..TRIPLE H IS BEST ACTION.. IF TRIPLE H CAN BECOME THOR..I CAN AGREE IT BUT..WHAT ABOUT ACTOR AS BRAD PTT OR DANIEL CRAIG ANOTHER AS THOR?? WELL...
darkdog2011 - 12/21/2008, 9:40 AM
I think that the only person capable of playing Thor is Tyler Mane, who was the one who played Sabretooth in the first X-Men Movie. He actually looks like Thor and is also buff which is a main characteristic of his.

Come on people. pretty obvious that Triple H is not going to play Thor. Hes not an actor (even if he was, hes not a very good actor) and hes just a wrestler. The movie wont get much credibility if the main character is a wrestler. In other words..people WONT TAKE IT SERIOUSLY. So to end this "debate" of wether or not Triple H will be the lead role, face it people, not in a million years.

luke goss should play thor. he was prince nuada in hellboy2. he doesnt really have the size for it though
worldbreaker - 4/15/2009, 3:03 PM
well two people will have to play the part someone to play Thor and some one to play his sickly puny counterpart what comes to mind is David Spade to play the puny part then have some one else play Thor.
Of course they might not go with the double identities.
