With all of this jibber-jabber about whether Robert De Niro and Jude Law are or aren’t in Kenneth Branagh’s Thor and who they might play, those sneaky blokes at Movieline interviewed Dominic Cooper for Lone Scherfig’s An Education and just happened to notice that the young British actor, best known for his role in the musical Mamma Mia!, was preparing to audition for a role in the movie himself!
Essentially, the interviewer happened to notice the Thor sides Cooper had been studying and started asking questions about whether he’d been approached for the role of Fandral the Dashing, one of the Warriors Three, already knowing the answer.
You can read exactly how it went down at the end of that interview over on Movieline.
Of course, just because Cooper is studying, that doesn’t mean he’s already gotten the role of the blonde bearded swashbuckler, but it certainly would be interesting to see him, De Niro and Jude Law as The Warriors Three if that’s the way Branagh decides to go.
