Welcome to version 4 of the site. I happened upon this theme the other day and fell in love with it, so I decided to try it out here since I was in the mood for change. Hope you guys will like it too. 
Yahoo Movies released the very first image of Chris as Thor today and I’ve just added it to the gallery. I know people are going to continue to complain that he’s not big enough for the role, but I personally think he looks amazing in the photo and can’t wait for more to pop up. What do you guys think?
Australian actors Chris Hemsworth and Ryan Kwanten are the toast of their native country – they will receive the top honours at an upcoming awards show to celebrate Aussie stars in Hollywood.
The Breakthrough Awards, organized by the Australians In Film association, is designed to recognized the achievements of stars from Down Under who are carving out careers in the American entertainment industry.
Hemsworth, who will appear in upcoming superhero blockbuster Thor, and True Blood star Kwanten will follow in the footsteps of other actors including Sam Worthington, Mia Wasikowska, Isla Fisher and Abbie Cornish, who are all previous winners.
The event, which will take place in Los Angeles on 13 May (10), will also see the announcement of the 2010 winner of the Heath Ledger Scholarship – a sum of $10,000 plus return airfare from Australia which will be awarded to one emerging Aussie to help pursue a career in the U.S.
New photos of Chris at The Last Song premiere and after-party held on March 25, 2010 were added to the gallery a few days ago.
It’s no surprise to learn that back in Ireland, young Kenneth Branagh — who would grow up to direct film adaptations of “Hamlet,” “Much Ado About Nothing” and “Henry V” — fell under the spell of tales about royal family intrigue, ancient rivalry and clanging battlefields. What is unexpected, though, is that epic of obsession was by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, not William Shakespeare.
“Growing up, my single comic book passion was Thor,” says the 49-year-old actor and filmmaker who surprised many industry observers by taking on the director’s job on the big-budget adaptation of the Marvel Comics thunder god. “From my time in Belfast as a kid, that’s the first time I came across that comic, really, exclusively, I don’t know why, but it struck a chord. I was drawn to it. I liked all the dynastic drama.”
