Kevin McKidd, who currently stars on "Grey's Anatomy," told IGN that he's still a contender for the lead role in Marvel Studios' Thor.

The actor, most known for "Journeyman" and "Rome," says there's been "a lot of back and forth" but that nothing has been determined. He acknowledged that Kenneth Branagh is directing it, a choice that makes him even more excited about the film.

Marvel Studios is targeting a July 16, 2010 release for Thor.

I love the choice if he gets it, but I would much rather see the Rome movies that Bruno Heller talked about first.

I don't think i'll like this movie no matter who they choose.

If you already have a negative attitude about it this early on, then I guarentee you'll hate it.

He's a pretty good choice IMO, I wanted someone bigger and taller but all of that can be taken care of. He was one of the common names that kept popping up in the original Thor casting thread:

Alan Tudyk please

Although I still would like to see Karl Urban get the nod, I would be disappointed if Kevin was chosen.

I really miss Journeyman...NBC really made a mistake cancelling that show.

Batman00 · 12-03-2008, 12:13 AM

I dont think so on this guy, they should cast someone unknown or someone else

Blu-Benny · 12-03-2008, 12:21 PM

i'll wait to make a judgement on this movie till i see some of the 1st pix of filming. this movie could go either way for me, the script is supposed to be awesome i guess but it'll depend on what the movie looks like for me.

This is a pretty good choice.He was good in Journeyman and he as the build for it.I hope he get the part.

Good choice! He was superb in Rome.

I approve!

P@t_Mtl · 12-03-2008, 02:38 PM

He might be a little too undertall

SillyMammo · 12-03-2008, 03:55 PM

Good choice! I really grew to like him in the Rome series.
