Anthony Hopkins will join Natalie Portman in the upcoming film Thor, according to a report in Variety. Stage and screen star Kenneth Branagh is directing the film which is based on a Marvel comic book character and which will begin filming in January.
Hopkins will play Odin, the father of Thor and Loki, played by Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston, respectively. Portman will be playing Thor's love interest, Jane Foster.
