What an odd choice for hercules
marvel72 - 9/23/2023, 4:58 PM
@Ryguy88 - Yes odd choice but he could be a worthy replacement to Thor because they've ruined Thor and we haven't had enough of Hercules yet for him to be ruined.
Ryguy88 - 9/23/2023, 7:40 PM
@marvel72 - lol true. I do think that Thor can be salvaged though, with the right director and story.
TheLight - 9/23/2023, 8:52 PM
@Ryguy88 - Seriously. He had to be a last minute pick. No way am I to believe that this guy is Herakles/Hercules.
marvel72 - 9/24/2023, 1:52 PM
@Ryguy88 - Yeah either first movie Thor or Avengers:Infinity War Thor.
Ryguy88 - 9/24/2023, 8:24 PM
@marvel72 - infinity war thor was a great character
KingLeonidas - 9/23/2023, 4:54 PM
terrible choice. does not even have close to the standard of physique required to play Hercules. what on earth were they thinking?
Ryguy88 - 9/23/2023, 7:39 PM
@KingLeonidas - they were thinking, "we need the straight man to play off of our goofy Thor". They dont care that he cant bench even 200lbs.
ModHaterSLADE - 9/23/2023, 5:00 PM
Yeah, I'm not buying this dude as a physical rival to Thor being half Hemsworth's size.

Wonder, will they do Thor 5 (probably with another tonal shift) or will this be resolved elsewhere
Scarilian - 9/23/2023, 5:29 PM
Casting sucks, costume is 'ok' but looks cheap. No chance Thor 5 happens. Secret Wars/Avengers Forever will be the ending of the MCU. Hercules will probably be rolled into whatever Battleworld concept they have between Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars.

Hate the idea they made a cliffhanger for this character without any intention to follow up on it - nobody involved with the film even knew this scene existed. It was purely added just to bait the audiences into thinking 'the story continues'.

All the legacy actors are in varying stages of injury, poor health or desiring to retire from the MCU. It'd have been better to end things with Endgame.

Wga got a deal? @RorMachine?

Recast Lee Pace as Hercules
Blastaar - 9/23/2023, 5:59 PM
Of course we know that they can't just grab body builders to play these characters(except for Arnold Swartzneggar), they need REAL actors, but common man, Chris Hemsworth is not a body builder and they did a GREAT job with his casting.

Bad casting choice here.

Zeus was so terrible In Thor 4, that I just don't care about crappy miscast Hercules.

I want to see more of Hemsworth Thor. Waititi won't be allowed near it. The MCU should just forget Zeus/Hercules & never bring them back. They were just too awful to fix.

Can we get the mcu version of Kratos to come in and murder these two already? Then the screaming goats, of course.
Gmoney84 - 9/23/2023, 6:28 PM
Love some Roy Kent. He’s terrible for this role.
SheepishOne - 9/23/2023, 6:53 PM
Despite the flaws of L&T, I thought Goldstein was a particularly inspired casting decision. Sure, he's not as big as Hemsworth, but I don't care about that as much. I could see his acting sensibilities playing well enough with Hemsworth to share an interesting character dynamic. He has a certain aggressive swagger that I think could really challenge Hemsworth's presence.

If the only complaint is that he's not big enough, I don't consider that a great criticism of the actor or casting decision. Hemsworth almost wasn't Thor because he wasn't "big enough". Nobody would say that now.
soupysales - 9/25/2023, 4:53 PM
@SheepishOne - i would much rather have a good actor, that may not be able to be as big as i would like...than some beefy man who can't act to save his life...arnold has some fun movies...and he plays himself in every one...just like the rock...and they are/were beefy and hot as hell...horrible actors
dragon316 - 9/23/2023, 9:48 PM
Fan casting at finest marvel does wrong
URCOMMENTSUCKS - 9/24/2023, 10:32 AM
This movie was destined to be total ass.
Slotherin - 9/24/2023, 3:37 PM
The fur trim is a nice nod to the Nemian lion.
1stDalek - 9/24/2023, 4:45 PM
As a thrown together almost last minute addition, it's not a bad look. I don't know the actor at all, so can't talk about his skill, but he would certainly get enough time to bulk up for whenever he actually has to play the part, his current size doesn't matter too much.
Blastaar - 10/4/2023, 2:40 PM
Naw man.......We're talking about HERCULES, not some regular strong dude. Thor & Hercules are two characters that HAVE to be BUILT, most other Marvel superhero characters who are strong don't need to be as big. But Hercules & Thor DO.
