@ Manowar,

There’s not been an official confirmation/press release but he’s been in talks for it since last December, before anyone else, and it’s been reported as such since June.

I believe he will be playing Odin. As for Skarsgard, I’m not sure.

the only part i can see him playing is that of the grand vizier who is odin’s advisor but don’t think he is needed in this film,or the only other possible role for him is to play heimdal the guardian of the rainbow bridge.

thanx manowar, correct.

can’t seem to get my head out of the bring on absorbing man thing. my favorite villain and vinnie would be so good at it.

@ roger

The Wrecker was the villain with the crowbar, the Absorbing Man had the Ball & Chain weapon. 2 different villains that were part of the Wrecking Crew gang.

Still waiting, When was Brian Blessed added to the cast??

They finally got a guy that everyone can see in a Norse movie.

funny, i was just watching king arthur and thought that he was a scene stealer and hoped he would get a part in thor. i guess great minds think alike.
by the way, the guy with the crowbar was called the absorbing man (crusher creel). not likely skarsgard would fit that part. now if they announce vin diesel to the cast, we will know that crusher walks among them.

Brian Blessed is Odin

Everything else is window dressing

@ MemnochZERO,

Colm Feore is all kinds of awesome – I’d dig him in any role for this flick

By: MemnochZERO

MemnochZERO — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 15:30:52 +0000

This is ten kinds of badass, I love Stellan Skarsgard. Too bad Colm Feore isn’t playing Loki.

He’s a great addition but the one that worries me is portman. She’s a fine acctress but I didn’t like her in star wars.

Perrikus ?
or
Skurge the Executioner ?

im a little sketchy on thor villians other than Loki and enchantress.

i just hopee they dont cast him as the wrecker.
the wrecker …….. anyone remember him.
i hope not cuz he stikes fear into the eyes of his nemises with his Mighty Crowbar.

thats right a crowbar.

oh well i have faith in marvel.
and Skarsgård looked Bad@$$ in the photo with the beard.
so either way.
i belive in Marvel.

Balder is not a villain
