Thor to start shooting in January


From worstpreviews, IGN sat down with director Kenneth Branagh at the premiere screening of his Masterpiece Mystery TV movie series "Wallander," where he gave an update on the upcoming "Thor" movie.

"I'm working currently on 'Thor' for Marvel and we're planning that one," he said. "We're having a great time at the moment. We're in intense pre-production. I shoot 'Thor' in January of next year and because the time of release has been moved, it's allowed me to have a moment in the summer where I can shoot the Wallanders."

Branagh also confirmed the rumor that his award-winning "Wallander" co-star Tom Hiddleston is in the running for a role in "Thor." "Tom Hiddleston is a great actor and he, amongst a number of others, has been part of the group we've spoken to and all that's still a work in progress."

Is it just me or is Bill Bixby the toughest looking person in this photo? The Hulk looks like he just got caught farting in an elevator and the Thor looks like a kid trying hard to look macho in front of his bedroom mirror.

That's hysterical JPX. And so true. Is there anyone more likeable than Bill Bixby? I've been Netflixing the Hulk now and again and it totally holds up!

JPX, so funny.
