Hemsworth to star in Ron Howard's Rush

[dnwilliams]

Marvel Studio's Thor was a considerable success, and the title role seems to have been a breakout one for Chris Hemsworth. He'll be reappearing on our screens as The Huntsman in one of those Snow White movies, he'll of course star in the sequel to Thor, The Avengers, and now we have word that he'll be in Ron Howard's movie Rush.

Hemsworth will play James Hunt, an eccentric playboy and British F1 driver, who would do CRAZY things like eat at expensive restaurants with his dog, because he could. Howard has made one good movie in the last ten years (Frost/Nixon), so hopefully he'll be on form for this one.

The Missing and Cinderella Man are vastly underrated, though The Grinch, Da Vinci, Angels and Demons, and The Dilemma back up your theory.

I actually think very highly of Frost/Nixon. I should've added a line in the news about the overwhelming love you have for Thor and your feverish anticipation of the sequel.
