Covered by the first look at Warner Bros. "Green Lantern", and in addition to the
Scanned photo, featuring Thor (Chris Hemsworth) & Odin (Anthony Hopkins), in the latest
Entertainment Weekly issue Kenneth Brangh, the man who'll bring the God of Thunder to the big screen next summer, talks briefly about Mjolnir, Thor's mighty hammer, and complications with the suit.
And thanks to
CBM contributor "Claybo4131", you can check out what was said below.
"The look of the hammer was the first conversation I had the day I started the job" director Kenneth Branagh said. "We had conversations about how the Hammer looked the night before shooting, during shooting, the look of the hammer and how to shoot it. We're still talking about the hammer."
The hammer by the way was the least of Chris Hemsworths worries with Branagh saying
"Thor's suit was bloody hot for the first week they didn't have a cooling system in it. They had to add a t-shirt with water tubes sticking out." May look silly, but are you going to say anything to the guy holding a big hammer?
Including Kenneth Branagh and the main
THOR cast, Marvel Studios will be delivering a panel just for the God of Thunder at the San Diego Comic-Con on the coming Saturday, July 24. And they are expected to reveal more info on the film, plus footage/trailer/clip from the highly anticipated movie.
In addition to this brief talk,
EW provided a slightly updated synopsis.
