Casting 30 of our favorite Marvel and DC Comics superheroes and villains
By Mark Lynch
3. Thor
Chris Hemsworth has been Thor for the last eight years and, thankfully, it doesn’t look like he’ll be slowing down any time soon. He’s played Thor in different ways. We’ve gotten unworthy Thor, goofy Thor, The Big Lebowski Thor, and now it looks like he’ll be an Asgardian of the Galaxy in the future.
Hemsworth’s acting skills have shown that he’s more than capable to play different versions of the God of Thunder. The person who plays Thor next will have to do the same thing. It was recently reported that Jane Foster will be the Mighty Thor in Thor: Love and Thunder. Natalie Portman is bringing back her role, but I had another choice for Jane Foster as the Mighty Thor.
Our Dream Casting: Anne Hathaway
Anne Hathaway is the way to go. She’s one of the more beloved actors in Hollywood and an award-winning performer. Hathaway has played drama, sang in musicals, and proved everyone wrong when she was a good Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises.
Replacing Natalie Portman with Hathaway would have been great. It’s been a while since we’ve seen Jane Foster. It wouldn’t be shocking if Thor made a joke that she looks different. I wrote this before Thor: Love and Thunder was announced and I stand by my pick of Anne Hathaway instead of Natalie Portman.
