Jessica Biel In Talks For Thor?
/Film —
According to an unnamed source who spilled to Nuke The Fridge, Jessica Biel is currently negotiating a role in Kenneth Branagh’s Thor. If true, and let’s pretend for a moment that it is, this would seem to simultaneously stomp on the rumour that Natalie Portman was up for the female lead and those never ending Jessica Biel Wonderwoman stories (though stomping on those is rather like stomping on mist and just about as necessary). Who would she play? There’s a handful of options but other information on the film would seem to suggest it isn’t Nurse Jane Foster.

The folks over at Nuke the Fridge have laid down some rumors today linking noted hottie Jessica Biel and the upcoming Marvel Studios production of Thor, which will be directed by Kenneth Branagh. According to their anonymous tipster, Biel is in talks to play the “love interest” of the title character, who will be played by Star Trek’s Chris Hemsworth.
The source was very unclear as to the exact character that Biel might play, though speculation has her playing anything from Jane Foster, a nurse who dated Dr. Donald Blake (Thor’s alter-ego in the Earthly realm) — to The ...
Jessica Biel joining Thor
Total Film News —
It’s only just started to gear up properly, but the rumours about Thor casting are still rolling – with Jessica Biel reported as in talks. According to “sources” that talked to Nuke The Fridge (so hire a truck of salt to take it with), Biel is in discussions to play the lead’s love interest.

And we’ve no confirmation yet as to whether the story will even bring the hero to Earth. ...
Jessica Biel Rumored for 'Thor' Love Interest
Get The Big Picture —
... Certainly, on the other hand, Biel is a bigger "name" as those things go, but I don't think I need to tell you that she's not in Portman's league on screen. However, she's probably a better fit for a movie like Thor than Portman could ever be, especially if there's any action involved. Nuke The Fridge says that Biel is in talks to play Thor's love interest, but points out specifically that she won't be Jane Foster, the arm candy of Thor's alter ego, Donald Blake. ...

Jessica Biel In Thor?
Cinema Blend News —
Jessica Biel In Thor? Most of the big corporate news sources have already started their 4-day, holiday weekend. Were still here blogging away and will be all through the holiday. Not because we arent patriotic, but because we dont have Rupert Murdoch lurking in the background willing to reward our unwavering loyalty by paying us to do nothing. One of the interesting things about a quiet, pre-holiday night like tonight, a night when the trades and AOL subsidiaries have already grabbed their margaritas and headed for the beach, is that strange stories start surfacing from smaller websites. With less noise to filter through its easier to spot odd items like this one on a place called Nuke the Fridge ...

[image] * Classic video game Asteroids is set to become a movie, according to The Holywood Reporter . Universal has won a four-studio bidding war to pick up the film rights to the classic 1979 Atari arcade video game. Thing is, there wasn't exactly a story to Asteroids – you just sat in a triangle blasting away at wirefram polygons. Stupidly addictive as a game but it's going to take some imagination to turn that into a movie? What next? A movie of noughts and crosses?

We still haven’t moved Nick Fury into the bad-ass zone. He’s still just kind of a ...
