Well...then it's a good thing he plays Chris Pine's father in Star Trek

Heimdall has been cast!

British actor Idris Elba has been cast as Heimdall. Ironic that a character known as the whitest of the gods would be played by a black man....

Stringer Bell!

According to Empire Online actor Jeremy Renner is in talks to play Hawkeye. He's unsure if he'll cameo in Thor (which seems to be more likely according to him) or in Capt America. But it seems that Hawkeye will definatly be in Avengers.

That'd be awesome, I really dig Renner and Hawkeye is in my top 5 Marvel Characters.

*cqb101* · 11-29-2009, 03:35 PM

Yea, Renner is pretty perfect for that role.

*That Matt Guy* · 12-03-2009, 02:26 PM

Wow, this movie has sh*t written all over it. Those casting choices just make me shake my head, except for Hawkeye.

*Raph's Girl* · 12-07-2009, 05:39 PM

Stan Lee has tweeted (yes...he's on Twitter) that he's been cast in Thor. He didn't say what his role was tho but I love that his twitter name is Smilin Stan Lee

Isn't his appearance in any Marvel movie a given at this point though? He's had some pretty decent cameos.

*Voltron* · 12-08-2009, 09:55 PM

It depends on if he created the character, I think. He wasn't in Blade or MiB, though that would have been awesome.

Yea, he only appears in the movies for the characters he's created. He wasn't in Ghost Rider or Man-Thing, either.

*odupianist* · 12-09-2009, 12:05 PM

Gotcha, I never saw Ghost Rider. I forgot about Blade, but that makes sense about him creating the character. Thanks

Thor IMO HAS The Best Cast in Comic Book Film History

Good thing you said it was your opinion, because otherwise, this is the stupidest statement I've ever read.

I wouldn't say best cast, but definitely one of the better ones. And definitely one of the most talented directors.

What's so stupid about thinking it has the best cast in CBF history?

*Brodie* · 12-09-2009, 03:58 PM

Because its a ridiculous statement. There are a number of other comic book films with better casts.

You have one actor in the whole mix that kind of makes it worthwhile, the rest are just "alright, thats cool." But no where near the "best."

Hell, WOLVERINE had a better cast. Not saying it was a good film (it wasn't), but it had a more interesting cast.

Seriously? Wolverine has a better cast than this:

Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins, Stellan Skarsgard, and Idris Elba?

Not even close.

Wolverine had a better cast then Thor? I whole heartedly disagree.

Now that is how did you put it? A "Ridiculous Statement".

Most of the supporting roles for Wolverine weren't all that great as opposed to Thor where its has a solid supporting cast.

*That Matt Guy* · 12-10-2009, 05:52 PM

Just because a person is an exceptional actor doesn't mean they are right for a role. It just annoys me when they cast people who look absolutely nothing like the characters they are supposed to be playing.
