Kat Dennings Joins THOR?

Kat Dennings is the star of Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist, The House Bunny and Robert Rodriguez‘s Short and according to her friend, the great beautiful Natalie Portman, Dennings will also be in the upcoming Marvel live action film THOR, directed by Kenneth Branagh. But Portman didn’t reveal to MTV which character Dennings will play in the movie…

“Well I’m really excited,”
“Kat Dennings is going to be in it with me and she’s a good friend and an amazing actress, so I’m looking forward to that.”

They don’t have anybody playing The Enchantress yet, so that could be a wild guess for now, maybe further confirmation or official announcement on Dennings’ involvement and her role will be revealed soon enough.

Chris Hemsworth plays the hero with the mighty hammer and Tom Hiddleston as the villain Loki and Natalie Portman as THOR’s mortal love interest Nurse Jane. Jaimie Alexander plays Sif, the tough female Asgardian warrior, Idris Elba as Hemdall,  Anthony Hopkins as Odin, also starring Stellan Skarsgard and Colm Feore

The script was written by Mark Protosevich and Zack Stentz & Ashley Miller.This epic adventure spans the Marvel Universe; from present day Earth to the realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is The Mighty Thor, a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans as punishment. Once here, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth
