McKidd confirmed for IGN that he's still a contender for the lead role and that there's been "a lot of back and forth" about the project of late, but that nothing has been determined. He acknowledged thatKenneth Branagh is directing it, a choice that makes him even more excited about the film.
McKidd stressed that the part that he's up for is indeed that ofThor and not a supporting role. This contradicts what McKiddtold us last year when he suggested that Thor might be played by a younger actor and that he would be up for a different role instead.
