from LOP
-- Triple H is said to be in the running for the lead role in Marvel's upcoming movie Thor, which is scheduled to be released in late spring 2010. The other lead candidate for the role is Kevin McKidd of HBO's Rome series.
So I know that in my Avengers thread ppl were saying that this would never happen.. well it has.

There is already a thread about this. Needless to say, I hope he doesn't get the part.

He has the look for the part, but without a legitimate actor, the movie is going to blow.

I think its a good Idea! The thing I hate the most is when the actor doesnt fit the part; like this Kevin McKidd. He is not what has been illustrated for years in the Thor comics. He looks like a pencil-neck, dweeb. Triple H does have the look, and he does have the experience. HELLO; FREAKS! Trips is an actor. A pro-wrestler is an actor. To be a wrestler (at least in WWE) you have to take acting classes to be able to carry on the storylines. And he's been doing so; for about 15 years.
Triple H is perfect for the role. If they go with this Kevin dweeb; it'll be a huge mistake.

If he does a good acting job, I think it would be aiight now that I think about it. Didn't expect Heath ledger to fit the Joker role, but by the trailers he looks amazing.

I'm amazed Channing Tatum isn't already playing every role.

It seems you think that you have the right to your opinion and I don't. |

Kevin McKidd has acting chops and has the perfect face for Thor, he can bulk up a lot more and with a padded suit can be absolutely perfected for the role. Triple H should be nowhere near this movie, yeah, he's got the body for it, but he's a terrible actor and he would just look ridiculous in the role. |

A terrible actor, but yet he is the top draw in WWE?!?! Whatever you think! A padded suit would look terrible!

Jeff Hardy is a top draw so that means he could be the next Terminator? What about Rey playing Romeo and Julliet? You are entitled to an opinion but your opinion is rediculous.. Change the channel because there is a whole world outside of WWE... |

I am not big on wrestlers as actors, but the more I think about it, at least appearance wise, you'd be hard pressed to find a better Thor.  Look at how Thor is built... its not like Hulk, where he so massive that CGI is needed, or Iron Man, where you can throw a guy in a suit... you need a believable look for this. In the 80's they'd probably just throw a wig and a metal helmet on Dolph Lundgren, but thats not really a possibility now. Unless they find an unknown, I'd prefer Triple H over this McKidd guy, who is simply not big enough. |

Ok; first of all those were their first movies, and though I haven't seen The Condemned; The Marine was just terrible. But what about The Rock's movies. Triple H had just a small part in Blade: Trinity, and from what I saw he did pretty well. You can't judge an actors ability on how well he did with a small part. We will see how well he does in the WWE Film Journey of Death, which is due to release in 2009.
