I would say it is half-and-half with Iron Man. He has stayed within the public eye, especially to our generation at least. He had the cartoons, Toy-Biz merchandise, and of course, my homey GhostFace Killah uses the Tony Stark moniker all the time! They might not know his origins prior to the film releasing, but the do recognize the Iron Man suit, and that alone is good!

@Bill Blume
We’re hearing that much of the movie will take place in Asgard, but that’s just what we’re hearing. It hasn’t been confirmed yet, stay tuned, we’ll keep you posted.

@T.
Those are true statements but what was meant by second tier, is how well the public knows the character. Not many knew Iron Man, and fewer more know Thor.

Thor’s not second tier! He’s one of Marvel’s most powerful and important characters. And his character has been around for a long time.

If Natalie Portman is in this movie, I will definitely watch it.

I don’t see why everyone thinks Portman is such a huge star. Yeah, she’s attractive, but her acting in the Star Wars prequels was awful (as was everyone else’s except Ian McDiarmid). V for Vendetta was a horrible movie. I just don’t see how everyone thinks she is a great actress.

Forgive me but somewhere I read about the Thor film release being changed again. Now it has been moved forward to May 20, 2011. Though I don’t really know if that’s true.

And as for Natalie in a role for the film, well, I personally can’t see her as any of the characters mentioned, but the one she most fits is Jane Foster.

Anyways I’m really feeling excited about all this cast rumors because they keep telling me that this film os going for real.

I think it’s most likely that Portman would play Jane Foster or some other mortal Earth woman. That just seems the most logical scenario to me, and I suspect with the first movie, they’d want to keep it as Earth-bound as possible.

@Carl Lee
Shea, Eva is sexy, but I have also seen her act. I dare say Portman is sexier, I would take Portman over Mrs. Tony Parker for The Wasp.

@ Manowar

with a short hair cut she could be an awesome jannet! (the wasp) or with red hair i’d buy her as russian spy black widow. shes small and sporty looking which to me is more convincing as a spy, but still very sexy.

think about it!!! lol

Oh yeah, dude, how long ago was that rumor? Been a while!

@SK47
I still like the rumour of Eva Longoria as The Wasp. I thought that was pretty sexy, not to mention more fitting for the role.

@Carl Lee, that is good! A great Viking epic Marvel style…but the end result is the Avengers and Nick Fury is in it obviously so they have to introduce the Jane Foster character. Maybe at the very end?
Either way, I cannot see Portman in this. Maybe as The Wasp I can see Portman in the role. She goes back to her cute short hair-style after V, the same she came on SNL with. Yeah, I can see that.

I think she’s sexy and a great actress, but the only Marvel character I can see her play would be Spider-girl.

Probably not gonna happen, but I wonder if they would have Loki’s daughter Hela in the Movie? Or his 2 sons, the World Serpent and the giant wolf Fenris ….LOL, probably not…

@SK47
The latest reports say Asgard, but I wanted to keep an open eye out to the future. Obviously, Thor joins the Avengers on Earth. So at some point, maybe in the first Thor, we’ll see Jane.

Also in the comics, Lady Sif and Jane Foster share a striking resemblance to the point where Donald Blake/Thor mistakes the mortal for the goddess.

This Thor movie, it is strictly going to be set in Asgard right? So then the Jane Foster character would be out correct? Now, I dig Natalie a lot but I would say her in Thor is a wrong move. Yes I know what she brings to the table, but they should do a casting search.
