Norah on Thor Playlist

Natalie Portman has revealed that her “good friend”, actress Kat Dennings (absolutely wonderful in “Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist”) will be joining her in director Kenneth Branagh’s “Thor”.

Portman, who spilt the beans on Denning’s invovlement to MTV, didn’t mention what role the “amazing” Dennings, whose other credits include “The House Bunny” and “Charlie Bartlett”, would be playing though.

HeyUGuys may have found the answer. The website rediscovered a casting notice that was posted at SpoilerTV in October, which featured a breakdown of a character that would seem to suit Kennings to a tee.

“[MARCY LEWIS] (20) Is a college student. Aloof, jaded beyond her years, she thought her internship with scientist Kate Spelling would be an easy 6 college credits. However, she’s been stuck for months in this small New Mexico town and relegated to a wide range of unglamorous activities. Kate has been particularly hard on Marcy, making it her personal project to see that Marcy lives up to her potential. Marcy deals with her situation both by using subtle irony and by being an overt wiseass.”

“Thor”, set to lens shortly in California, stars Australia’s Chris Hemsworth as the Norse God.

Thanks to /film for the heads up!
