"It's a pretty impressive costume, and I think anyone who put it on would look pretty cool," Hemsworth told MTV News.

The actor went on to say that he's adopted "semi-blond eyebrows and beard" for the movie and revealed that they're currently 3/4 through filming at the moment.

"I have nice long, blond wig which they throw on every day," he added.

Hemsworth also went on to talk about the importance placed upon pronouncing the name of Thor's hammer, Mjolnir, correctly. "There's many different versions of pronouncing that thing, The rehearsal process was mainly about how do we pronounce that word."

I believe you pronounce it like this, mule-ner, but say it together.

there's only one way to pronounce the Marvel version of Mjolnir.

Mole-Near.

Giggity-giggity-goo! Now all I need are some damn PICTURES of the "...pretty impressive costume" and some of Mjolnir (hint, hint, HINT!)!!!

Solaris - Agreed. Without "FOR ODIN, FOR ASGARD!!!" it just wouldn't be Thor (Ultimate or not)!

I've got complete confidence in this guy. From day one he seemed like a perfect fit, and I think he's the right man for the job. My only complaint is that I'm not really feeling the beard. Thor is usually clean shaven, and it's a good look. The only time he ever had a beard was when he was ruling Asgard (I think). Tiny bit worried. Still, I'm sure it will look great on camera.

@lufficapri, he's at the premiere because his brother is Liam Hemsworth, one of the stars of the movie.

Cool...I think he'll make a great Thor. Just a little dissapointed he's not bulkier...though with technology and costume upgrades, maybe they'll add a little more muscle? Hope so...looking forward to seeing a trailer at Comic-Con!
HelaGood
HelaGood - 3/26/2010, 11:35 AM
according to dictionary.com -- "myawl-nir"
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 3/26/2010, 11:37 AM
@ hela

right, but that goes back to what hemsworth said, there are a lot of different ways of pronouncing it, but i'm pretty sure Mole-Near is the Marvel way :)
