David Mattey & Keith Middlebrook Join Marvel's Thor

Thor's cast just gets bigger and bigger, for filming to start officially tomorrow.

David Mattey has joined the cast in an role that of course can't be revealed. The guy is freaking "6'10", so I suspect he'll be some great threat to Thor, in make-up or something. On the actor's official site, he writes:

"Been super busy lately with rehearsals for Marvel Studios' upcoming Thor movie, directed by Kenneth Branagh. I'm not at liberty to say what I'm doing on it (it's all classified), but we've been rehearsing since mid-October so far. The actual shooting begins in mid-January, and the release is slated for 2011."






Keith Middlebrook, who will also have a role in Iron Man 2 as Dr. Jason Miller, has also landed a role in Thor. He will portray Yngvi. I did research for the character, and found this HERE.
My only source for this addition is IMDB, but I'm sure pretty it's accurate.



MarvelFreshman:So the cast is really growing! Since filming is sceduled to begin officially tomorrow, I suspect they have the entire cast in place. Tey just want to make announcments over the course of filming to make Thor a popular topic, much like they did with Iron Man.

They look like Frost Giants to me.
Another great find MF.

That guy up top looks a better fit for Volstagg than Ray Stevens.

Damn longbow good eye man. Pop a big beard on him and he is Volstagg.

@Wadey: Yeah, I search and saw some pics of him sporting just the goatee. Slap a fake tattoo on his head and have him tone up, he's Skurge. That could mean Enchantress as well.

Yngvi ... never heard of him but judging from the Wiki article Thor may have another half brother. Or maybe some kind of Asgardian chieftain. Very cool.

I agree with Hawk'sblue and Longbowhunter. He would have made a great Volstag, but that's already been cast.

But I also agree with Wadey. At that size and with that beard and head he would also make a VERY good Executioner.

awesome. Kind of a win win

I don’t know who will David Mattey play, but by his looks he could be pretty much any character in the movie. Volstag check, Executioner check, Frost Giant check, Kurse check. To me the guy was born in Asgard.

Yeah, the big guy would be great as either The Destroyer or Executioner. I'd be geekily satisfied either way.
