Natalie Portman Is Thor, Or Thor’s Missus, Or Something
Thor is going to be a huge movie for Marvel - if all goes well, it'll end up as its first humiliating flop. Don't take that for granted. If Thor is really going to be as headache-inducingly terrible as can be - if it truly has its eyes set on the highest peak of catastrophic awfulness known to man - then it must take down some A-list actors with it. So thank heavens that Natalie Portman has signed up for Thor. But Natalie Portman has her work cut out. Can she make Thor as woeful as she made Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium? Doubtful.

Kenneth Branagh Wants To Direct Thor
When you think of films about disabled medical students who touch magical hammers and become crime-fighting Norse gods, the first name that springs to mind is obviously Kenneth Branagh. Isn't it? It isn't? In fact Kenneth Branagh would probably be one of the last people you'd associate with something that brawny and gormless? Well tell that to Marvel, because they're currently in talks with Kenneth Branagh about their new Thor movie. In short, Kenneth Branagh wants to direct Thor. Kenneth Branagh directing a summertime comic book movie like Thor might sound slightly ridiculous, but the idea has potential - with any luck Branagh will turn Thor into a cross between his modern-day romantic musical interpretation of Love's Labour Lost and that Frankenstein movie where he made Robert De Niro dress up like Sloth from The Goonies and run around the north pole. Ace!
