Kenneth Branagh could definitely maybe direct Thor. Hamlet is on hold!


MTV have news that suggests Kenneth Branagh may definitely be directing the Thor movie for Marvel.

According to a recent post on WhatsOnStage.com — a British website that covers theatre and performing arts — that just might be the case.
While there has been no official word from Marvel Studios or Branagh’s reps, WhatsOnStage reports that Branagh will be stepping down from directorial duties on a stage production of “Hamlet” (starring Jude Law) “because of commitments to the forthcoming feature film ‘Thor,’ a project he’s recently undertaken.” The story notes that Branagh will continue as an “artistic associate” for the current theatre season.

The more I think about this the more sense it makes. Kenny boy is all about the Shakespeare, Wagner style epic tales of death, double-crossing and love. As Thor is all that kind of jazz I think Branagh is an excellent choice to direct it. What do you think?
