Many thanks to IGN Movies for the following quotes. Be sure to head there to hear more from each of the actors (as well as director Kenneth Branagh) and check out DCMarvelFreshman's article below to read more interviews and set visits.



Ray Stevenson On Playing Volstagg The Valiant:

"Volstagg is a bon vivant lover of life, epicurean good fellow. He's a god, which helps. He's full of life. He reminds me very much of Falstaff. There's a wonderful innocence to him and the steadfast loyalty of a big Saint Bernard dog. He'd come running through the snow with a keg of beer to save your life. You know, he's got a twinkle in his eye. He's always up for a party. He's an all-around good egg. Big egg, but a good egg."


Josh Dallas On Playing Fandral The Dashing:

"Flandral would like to think of himself as the R. Kelly of Asgard. He's a lover, not a fighter. You know what I'm saying? I've seen 'Trapped in The Closet' and 'Keep it on the Down Low.' All that kind of stuff. Fandral is a fun-loving guy. He's a ladies man. It's always debatable how successful he is at that. He thinks he's pretty successful. He thinks that all the ladies love him and, if they don't, then they will soon come around to the idea of loving him. He's fiercely loyal to Thor and the Warriors Three. They look out for each other. They would rather have a good time, but if he's gotta fight, he'll fight. He's a great character to play."


Jaimie Alexander On Playing Sif:

"The relationship between Thor and Sif in this movie is quite platonic. I mean, they're good buddies, they've grown up with each other, they're warriors, they fight side by side. We haven't taken it to the next level yet. She kind of thinks he's a little bit pig-headed, but she loves him nevertheless. She's like, 'That's my buddy, I'll do what I can for him.' But she'll definitely call him on his shit, which I like because it's kind of how I am with Chris Hemsworth."


Colm Feore On Playing King Of The Frost Giants, Laufey:

"The costume comes in this variety of pieces, and they just put each one on and glue me into it, paint me blue, and stitch me up, and then wheel me out. It's remarkable, and takes forever, and slightly longer to get off. I've been doing a lot of work recently and trying to apologize to people for the blue eyeliner and the blue fingernails and the blue everything, and I finally just gave up. I just said, 'You know, I'm in here every day shopping, yes, I am a stripper and I work nights, okay? So if you don't mind, give me the wine, give me the bread, and I'm leaving.' I said to Branagh, what if I do an homage to Tony Hopkins with a whisper of Max Von Sydow filtered through Paul Scofield, and you know Ken went, 'Yeah, that's about it!'"
