Good lord, I hope they cast him! That would be a great casting choice! From Rome to Asgard. With Kenneth Branagh directing and Kevin Mckidd staring, it just seems like a perfect match-up! He has got the voice and the look. This rumor started up last year, but it looks like it could actually happen. IGN caught up Mckidd at the premiere for ‘Punisher; War Zone’ where he was supporting his Rome co-star Ray Stevenson and he said there has been “a lot of back and forth” on weather or not he is really going to star in Marvels ‘Thor’.
I say stop the back and forth thing and cast the damn guy! At least the wheels are in motion. Now it’s going to be hard for me to imagine anyone else playing the role of Thor, son of Odin. I wonder who else Marvel is looking at. What do you think about McKidd playing Thor?
I love Kevin McKidd in Rome, (Well, i loved Rome on a whole, i was so disapointed that they axed it and the end of season 2 suffered because of that) but i really like Alexander Skarsgård for Thor. He has (IMHO) the look and feel that could be right. Bit of working out, some long hair and that beautiful smile could totally work.
I think Kevin McKidd would be an awesome choice for Thor! When I first heard the rumor I was thrilled. I really hope he gets cast.
