Anthony Hopkins dons the role of Odin
Anthony Hopkins has been cast in the role of Norse God ‘Odin’, in Marvel Studio’s adaptation of “Thor” to be directed by Kenneth Branagh. The filming starting in January will star Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston as “Thor” and ‘Loki’ respectively. Natalie Portman is playing Thor’s romantic liaison Jane Foster.
The movie written by Mark Protosevich and Zack Stentz enacts the story about an arrogant but powerful warrior “Thor” whose reckless actions re-ignite an ancient war. He is sent to Earth as a part of his punishment where must learn to live among the mortal humans. Here he learns the true meaning of a hero when he is when the most dangerous villain of his world sends dark forces of Asgard to invade Earth.
Anthony Hopkins next releases are “The Wolfman” and Woody Allen’s “You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger.”
“Thor” is to be released by Paramount Pictures on May 20, 2011.
A legend by the name of Anthony Hopkins perfectly could have only suited the character of Odin. Hopefully the film stays put to the mark that the comic book has created for itself.

Anthony is a good actor.
