Did you take anything from the set of Thor?
No. They gave me stuff, but I never stole anything. [Laughs.] I have a problem; I don’t like to do things that are bad.
What did they give you from the set?
Oh, they gave me a book from the set and a poster, just little things.
Book and a poster?! What were you, an extra? What book did they give you?
I’m not sharing all the secrets. Maybe when you guys see Thor, you can try to pick it out of the movie.
Did you do any Hannibal Lecter impressions for [Thor co-star] Anthony Hopkins?
[Laughs.] Oh, Jesus. No! That would have been horrible!
That was your chance.
No. I was way too awestruck to do anything offensive.
Did you feel self-conscious around him?
No. We didn’t have any scenes together, so the only time I really saw him was the table read. If he says one line, the whole room is silent, just leaning in to hear every word. No pun intended, it’s like being around a god.
How do you pronounce the name of Thor’s hammer, Mjölnir?
Mee-yol-ner.
Correct!
Yes!
Have you ever heard of Beta Ray Bill?
Yes, I’ve heard of him.
Do you think people who read comics are weird?
Absolutely not! I read comics. Another thing I took from my brother was his comics.
Me neither. OK, who is your favorite comic book hero?
Thor! Come on!
Besides Thor.
Besides Thor? I know it’s weird, but I always really loved the Silver Surfer when I was a kid. I don’t know why, it was probably all the silver, I was into it. And anything with girls. I was always into Supergirl and Wonder Woman. Any kind of lady.
With an all star cast which includes Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury,
Thor is set to be released in the UK on April 29 and shortly after in the US on May 6, later this year!
