The Warriors Three Cast For Thor

UPDATE: Now Variety has put the original article in question back up this morning. Um, whatever. Weird.

More casting has gone down for Thor leading up to its January start-date.

Last night, Variety reported actors Tadanobu Asano, Ray Stevenson and Stuart Townsend signed on the dotted line to join the production. They’re to play the Warriors Three, the adventure-seeking god buddies of our hammer-carrying hero. Remember, Chuck’s Zachary Levi was originally cast as one of the members Fandral, but had to drop out.

Then a funny thing happened. The trades pulled the article. As if it never happened. Weird, huh? Why did they yank it to begin with? *Shrugs*

Nonetheless, Coming Soon has the original details so they’re the ones I’m crediting for the story. You can take it for what it’s worth until more info rears its head.
