There is murmuring of the man who may be Thor this day. Thanks ye to the movieweb for the following news.
McKidd mentioned a while ago that he was in talks to play a role in the film. but said it was likely for a supporting role as “They want to go for someone younger” for the main part. Seems something’s changed along the way.
McKidd, who currently appears on “Grey’s Anatomy”, says he’s excited at the prospect of working with Kenneth Branagh, who’s helming the Marvel Comics movie.
Kevin McKidd may not be a bad choice at all. At 6′ he has a frame that he can work with, and will no doubt go through a dedicated “beef up” phase before shooting. I like that McKidd isn’t young, I prefer a weathered Thor. The scar on his upper nose is also a welcome accessory.
What I am currently wondering is if Kevin will grow his hair our for the role, and don long reddish blonde locks (closer to the mythic description of Thor) or will they get him to wear a wig under his winged helm?
I wouldn’t mind this man as Thor; what do you guys think?
