Anyone see Triple H on the Drew Carey Show? He played a wrestler and still couldn't act the part.

It's going to be Brad Pitt.....Triple H has no box office draw. Who the hell is going to go see this movie with HIM in it? If he is the lead the ticket sales will be worse than See No Evil, The Marine, and The Condemned ALL PUT TOGETHER.
People will go see it with Brad Pitt in it JUST to see Brad Pitt. People who are fans of the character will go see it no matter who is in it, but a big name like Brad Pitt brings in the casual viewer who might now be a big Marvel fan.

Well, putting Triple H in it could draw a massive number of wrestling fans, added to the comic fans and causals who think the movie will be fun. Either way, he needs to stay away.

Wrestling fans couldn't save the Marine, See No Evil, and The Condemned. I don't think you realize how many more people see Brad Pitt movies than even know who Triple H is. There are a lot of wrestling fans yes, but as EVERY MOVIE that has EVER had a wrestler in it NOT NAMED HULK HOGAN and in the 1990's....wrestling fans support does NOT translate into the movie theater. They didn't even go see that pile of crap Ready to Rumble and it was ALL ABOUT WRESTLING, not just a movie with a wrestler in it. I'd seriously be willing to bet that more people saw Brad Pitt's last movie than even know who Triple H is.

He has the perfect look, but I just don't think he can pull it off. Brad Pitt can act, but he would look intellectually- disabled as Thor. Plus, I just don't see that happening.

Thor is a Marvel Comics movie, it's gonna have a lot of people wanting to see it. Myself, and anyone else with half a brain would agree with you on the Pitt thing, but I was just saying that Triple H being in it wouldn't really hurt the film at the box office. If anything, it could make the film more appealing to wrestling fans when they see that Triple H is playing the main character.

I do not agree that Brad pitt would even bother trying to be Thor. I made that topic earlier about what kinda films he seems to be doing lately and seriously Thor is not one of those.

Myself, and anyone else with half a brain Yeah exactly...Half a brain, not a full one. HHH will wreck this movie and anyone he touches. Wrestling is acting but totally different to acting in a movie. Althought Thor isnt marketed as much as Spiderman or The Hulk (toys and merch) im sure Marvel doesnt want a important piece of the avengers movie lead up to bomb. All WWE movies sucked and will continue to suck.

I would take Pitt over Trips anyday.
Trips isn't The Rock.

i dont even see much of a likeness. ok they are both muscled and have long hair but i see thor as a more pale and blonde scandanavian type unlike triple H who is almost a dark orange skin colour. I would much prefer an unknown to play him. HAving Triple H would probably uin the movies credibility striaght off the bat. I hope an unknown plays Cap too.

Brad Pitt would have to gain 50-60lbs of muscle to even begin to look the part...

I don't think people understand how big he is because in most of his movies he plays a pretty boy wearing a suit. Plus, if he gets the part I'm sure he'll work out extremely hard and get ripped for it. No worries about the role if Brad Pitt gets it.

Maybe HHH from 95, but he looks too old now. Between the scars and wrinkles, he wouldn't fit. Thor needs to looks like a bad ass muscular male model.
