Only thing I know about Hemsworth is that he was George Kirk in the Star Trek movie but he looks like he could be a good enough Thor. Obviously it also depends on what the costume looks like.

:D

Its a casting call so it could go for both Mind Candy and Hidden Fortress

[MGM]

Well, a casting call has NOTHING to do with HF, and EVERYTHING with MC! Close this topic now! :D

Ah, but as a comic book film, it lands perfectly here in the Hidden Fortress :D

Two threads?! Jeez!

Facially, the dude looks like a Thor.

And in addition, we now have a Loki as well:

Tom Hiddleston has just been cast as Loki, and it seems he's done some decent work on stage and in Britain.

[MGM]

Yeah, that was just SCOOPED in the Mind Candy forum, where topics about movies belong! :coolgleam:

[CountD]

OKay, okay,

What do we think of this casting decision?

I say yes.

[Stocky Boy]

Oh but of course the villain will and must be british. :D

[Tragic Angelus]

Don't worry, you'll always be my favorite British villain :D
