Created in 1962 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, Thor figure is almost an anomaly in the Marvel universe as it is not a superhero but a god (thunder), like its counterpart in Norse mythology . is a superman armed with a magic hammer who lives in Asgard, realm perched in the stars and governed by his father Odin. Exasperated by the arrogance of his son, who will banish sending it to Earth, stripped of his powers. Become a mere mortal, Thor fails (in the movie) in New Mexico, where he will be picked up by a small community of scientists, puzzled by this tall blond fell from the sky. Agents S.H.I.E.L.D. (the spy agency led by Samuel L. Jackson in Iron Man) will soon embark on his suit, like his brother Loki, who has obviously some family disputes to be resolved.

Truce of pyrotechnics. We returned to the main board where the head of the decoration, Bo Welch has built an entire town in the desert. Until he comes to shake our hands, we still had a hard time believing that the man chosen by Marvel for Orchester this epic $ 150 million is actually Kenneth Branagh, whose CV we had not accustomed to this. Not sure the studio inscribe: « From the director of » Much Ado About Nothing ‘and’ The Magic Flute ‘on the sign of Thor. « Yet « The name of Kenneth Brnagh was on the list of potential directors that we had established, « says Kevin Feige, producer and owner of Marvel Studios. Once we saw his name through the list, we could not help say, ‘Would not it be nice, right? « After, we had to get along, of course, but Ben came and really impressed us. His passion for the subject was contagious. «

« I had to see 7 or 8 years old when I discovered Thor on the cover of a comic in a kiosk in Belfast, Branagh recalls. The image of primitive man, blond, with wings on the helmet – I I good? (Laughter) – challenged me. I was immediately fascinated by the mixture of brutality and Viking foil. This is the movie we wanted to do: both very primal and sophisticated. « And if you’re still wondering what the director of Henry V is at the controls of a comic book adaptations, know that the answer is in the question. « For me, the story of Thor’s almost biblical with the two feuding brothers who remind me of Cain and Abel, « says Branagh. It is also a drama about the family problems of those who possess great power. Pure Shakespeare, background. «

Here we are. Natalie Portman, who plays Jane Foster, an astrophysicist who is studying Thor before falling in love, has not taken wrong: « It is the presence of Kenneth Branagh drew me into this project, admits she bluntly. I found the idea to give him a comic book adaptation so weird … I knew the result would be interesting what happens. It covers the material from an unexpected angle, mainly because of his Shakespearean background. The elements of the comics that might seem a little ridiculous on-screen take on another dimension with him. We must salute the intelligence of the choice of Marvel, when, for example they castent Robert Downey Jr. for Iron Man or when they offrend Thor Kenneth. «

Speaking of casting, select the one that would embody the god of thunder was just as epic as the film. « I think they called all the players measuring more than 1, 80m and speaking English! » laughs Tom Hiddleston, who had auditioned for the role of Thor before he offered his brother Loki. The chosen name is Chris Hemsworth finally, a 27 year old Australian actor whose claim to fame until now was to have played the father of Captain Kirk sacrificed in the opening scene of Star Trek by JJ Abrams. « When we hired Robert Downey Jr. for Iron Man incarnate, it was not yet the superstar we know, is justified Kevin Feige. I think Thor has the same effect on the careers of Chris Hemsworth. C ‘is the name of the character that is great on the poster, not that of the actor. This allows us to hire the best actor for the role, whether known or not. «

When Hemsworth, mountain of 1m91, advanced towards us, Feige sentence makes sense: it’s as if Thor had to escape from the pages of comics to come talk to us. « I started training seven months before filming, the actor explains. I went to play in another movie in the meantime, but I still prepare myself physically. When I arrived on the set of Thor I took fifteen pounds of muscle. It was too much. I is not coming in costume! « Hemsworth has scarcely time to tell us his unforgettable hearing (« My mom filmed playing a scene in the kitchen of an apartment in Vancouver. I still can not believe this video got possible to obtain the role « ) it should return the already set.

Kenneth Branagh does not wait. « You probably know it, but I spent the cast of Dune, « says the director. It must have been a thousand young players in a London hotel. Everybody was there: Gary Oldman, Daniel Day-Lewis, and this manure had the role, Kyle MacLachlan. (Laughs) At the end of the hearing, I asked David Lynch to him what was the most enjoyable and one that was most frustrating in the manufacture of a movie. « The shooting, me he replied. That is what is most enjoyable and frustrating at times. you have fun filming your plans and then you come mounting and you realize that’s all you have. « I have never forgotten that phrase. If I feel that I subsequently need another plan in a specific setting, I know it’s the right time to think. Not on the way home. «

At first I thought, how the fuck did this guy get a job writing in English when he clearly has a comprehension of the language equivalent to a middle aged Chinese man. Then I clicked and saw it was in French and translated using Google.

Every family has their issues. But in “Thor,” hitting theaters on May 6, Tom Hiddleston will bring new definition to the term “family squabble” as he plays our hero’s mischievous brother, the malicious Loki.

While Loki’s tricks throughout his long history in the Marvel comics have always had a villainous bent to them, his character hasn’t always perfectly conformed to the definition of villain. Looking back at the original comics, both Hiddleston and the film’s director, Kenneth Branagh, wanted to respect as many aspects of Loki’s character as possible.

“Ken and I discussed it a lot very early on, because we both read a lot of the comics and there were so many facets of him in [there],” recalls Hiddleston. “There was kind of an agent of chaos who would go down to earth and turn whales into sea serpents and flowers into dragons and whole streets of cars in New York into ice cream.

“But then there was also this damaged younger brother who didn’t receive as much love as his older brother, and who was passed over, rejected, betrayed. I think that became really interesting for both of us, actually. Ken and I suddenly decided we wanted to root all of his mischief in a truthful, psychological damage. He essentially was the younger brother who was never going to be king and he wished that he could. So all of his [actions] come from wanting to please his father. I found the duality of that [interesting]—he’s a villain, he has a lot of fun, he’s a mischievous prankster, but at the same time, he’s in deep, deep pain.”

Known for supplying his actors with a wealth of research material, Branagh also guided Hiddleston in his preparation for the role of Loki.

“Interestingly enough, he said to look at Peter O’Toole in two specific films, ‘The Lion in Winter’ and ‘Lawrence of Arabia,’” explains the actor. “What’s interesting about ‘The Lion in Winter’ is, [O’Toole] plays Prince Henry, and what’s beautiful about his performance is you see how damaged he is. There’s a rawness [to his performance], it’s almost as if he’s living with a layer of skin peeled away. He’s grandiose and teary and, in a moment, by turns hilarious and then terrifying. What we wanted was that emotional volatility. It’s a different acting style, it’s not quite the same thing, but it’s fascinating to go back and watch an actor as great as O’Toole head for those great high hills.”

When it came time to actually film the movie, Hiddleston used his study of O’Toole throughout the shoot.

“On set, we used to do different takes of different scenes, and we’d have [four] different versions,” Hiddleston remembers.

“The first one, he always said you can have one for free. The second take would be the Peter O’Toole take. The third one would be the Clint Eastwood take. And the fourth take would be the Jack Nicholson. So I had these three great actors I was trying to pull stuff from.

“[Branagh] used to love the Clint, actually. It was between the Clint and the Jack, because the Clint would be like, whatever you’re feeling, put it away in a drawer somewhere at the bottom of you and throw away the key. And Jack would be, have a really good time! A relish, a deep sense of enjoyment, he was really enjoying himself.”

Maybe a bit more of Thor and the Asgardians fighting in the real world? Might be more story in the trailer too?

Second Trailer

[6souls]

I approve

[Odesseiron]

Agreed. Looks tight. People are hating on this so much and I don't get it. Complaining about the taser scene, and how the god of Thunder would get knocked out by it. Apparently they don't know when he's in human form he's really vulnerable. Then someone else was saying how this Thor an Asgardian god exists in the same universe as Captain America and Iron Man. The last thing I saw was someone bitching saying they should have used the Ultimates version of Thor. Now, while I agree that would make an interesting story he still is in fact a god. Said person was implying he wasn't. Makes me facepalm. Yet these people will probably go see it anyway, like it, but still troll how bad it was.

I for one can't wait.

[quannum]

is this thor based on any 1 variation or is it a combination of multi origins?
destroyer as a villain seems pretty lazy of the film makers.

[Odesseiron]

Destroyer is just one of the villains. The Ice Giants are also featured it seems, as well as Loki. Loki loves mind games, not physical fights, so I'm sure we'll see something to that effect.

From what I had read, this Thor is more based the older Jack Kirby Thor.

I guess people didn't get the funnies from the god of thunder being hit with a taser.

Im looking forward to this more than Captain America.

[Tyrath]

I guess people didn't get the funnies from the god of thunder being hit with a taser.

Seriously. I lol'd.

Looks like a pretty fun action movie. Not gonna go in expecting anything like Dark knight obviously, but it could be good.

Fans of comics will find ways to hate on anything and everything.

He gets hurt by the taser because he gets banished to earth by Odin to learn humility. Odin takes his godly powers.
Thor does exist in the same universe as Cap and Iron Man.
I thought Ultimates Thor was a god as well. I don't read the Ultimates anymore, Ultimatum pissed me off too much, but Im pretty sure they confirmed him being a god in Ultimates 3?

Oh I know. I'm not complaining at all, and I know all that stuff. I just think it's funny people think they know all this stuff when they are clearly wrong. I think it gets confirmed in the end of Ultimates 2, when Loki brings his army of trolls and crap. Then Thor brings his allies in and everyone is in awe. I didn't bother with Ultimatum, but read the description and it was really annoying to me. Why even have bothered in the first place with the entire universe?
