When you think about the list of names that’s been touted to play Thor, who would’ve thought they’d turn to Daniel Craig? Some people may have thought of it, but the buzz went more around Brad Pitt. In an interview with IESB at press junket for Quantum of Solace, Craig revealed that he was indeed approached by Marvel to play the Son of Odin.
IESB asked if Craig was interested in doing something a little different character-wise, like Thor?
Craig said no, he turned it down and laughed about it.
IESB continued, “seriously, I heard the folks over at Marvel had you on a short list to be Thor.”
Craig said yes they [Marvel] did approach him but he turned it down. He added jokingly, it would have been too much of a power trip, both Bond and Thor, and running around with long hair and a hammer.
