I have to wonder if he has the acting chops to pull this off and not make it look like an SNL spoof.

Chris Hemsworth is a terrible ****ing actor.

I respect the artform, I respect acting and cinematography, and Chris Hemsworth is pure trash.

wesley snipes would have been perfect.

Lame, should have just had the Hulkster play himself.

He's had the same hairline since the early 80s.

Guessing it won't be about him banging his friends wife on camera or saying racist stuff

If you are going with hairlines, how about Nick Cage for the part?

The funny thing is that Hemsworth is a really big, impressive guy. He's huge, and has a tonne of muscle.

But he's a baby next to Hogan.

He's perfect for the role of Thor, I can't imagine a better actor for that role. But he lacks the swagger of Hogan.

I'd say John Cena would be a better choice of actor for the role, he was the swagger and the physique - but he is even shorter than Hemsworth.

Nah, Cage is too handsome to play Hogan.
