And no it's not Alexander Skarsgard (Generation Kill, True Blood), who had previously been rumored to be putting on the winged hat and hammer. The new son of Odin will be Chris Hemsworth, whom you might remember from this past week's Star Trek, where he played Captain Kirk's daddy at the very beginning of the film. The film will be directed by Kenneth Brannagh and is is slated for a May 2011 release.
Doctor Donald Blake has another side--that of the Norse God of Thunder Thor, punished by his father Odin and sent to live on Earth as a human with no recollection of his godliness. Whenever Blake holds Thor's mythical hammer Mjöllnir, he transforms into the muscular, blonde God. Through his travels, he battles his evil Brother Loki, Norse God of Mischief, and feels compelled to protect the world he now inhabits, as a God among Men.
