A Former Queen Will Love A God

Natalie Portman has officially won the female lead in the "Thor" flick says the Variety.



Portman will play Jane Foster, who in early comic book lore was a nurse who became Thor's first love. The character will now be a doctor-scientist combo.

The film is set in both present-day and the mythical realm of Asgard. Thor is an arrogant Norse warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans as punishment, he learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth

Chris Hemsworth's already been cast as Thor, the Norse God of Thunder while Tom Hiddleston plays the villain Loki, the god of mischief.

Kenneth Branagh calls action.

Jessica Biel is rumored to play Enchantress Amora.

Portman makes a good choice for this pic and has actually been rumored to have a role for quite some time...She is keeping really busy currently shooting the comedy "Your Highness" with James Franco...

Filming on the comic book adaptation kicks off early next year for release May 2011.
