Thor Adds Movie Legend Anthony Hopkins To The Mix

The movie adaptation of Marvel Comics superhero Thor just added a little swagger to its step. According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision Blog multiple Oscar nominee and one-time winner Anthony Hopkins has been added to the cast. Hopkins will play Odlin, the ruler of Asgard and Thor’s father.
Hopkins joins a cast that already includes Chris Hemsworth (who will play Thor), Natalie Portman, Colm Feore, Stellan Skarsgard, Jaimie Alexander, Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson and of course, Stan Lee. Rumours are abound that Robert DeNiro and Jude Law are in talks to star in the movie as well but there has been no confirmation of their involvement.
Kenneth Branagh will direct.
Thor will start shooting in January 2010 for its May 20, 2011 release date.
