Brad Pitt as Thor of the Avengers?

It's not final yet. Brad Pitt has yet to receive an offer, actually. It is still a rumor that Brad Pitt will be given the role in the Avengers movie. Given how Brad Pitt made a fantastic portrayal of the Greek hero Achilles in the movie Troy, I don't think it's any wonder that he would be the top choice as the blonde Norse god Thor.

There's also the massive success of Iron Man to account for Brad Pitt's nomination for the role. Robert Downey, Jr. put on a high level of performance as Iron Man. It has only added pressure that the cast for the other Avengers should also be excellent in acting. Now Brad Pitt may have never won an Oscar, but there's no denying that he's one fo Hollywood's A-list stars because of his proficient acting.

Just think: Robert Downey, Jr. and Brad Pitt in one movie!

Hmmm.. I'm still trying to imagine Brad Pitt as Thor. I think he can pull it off just RDJ did Iron Man. But this is still too good to be true for now.

Oh well, this is stil just a rumor. No final word out yet.
