I know this isn't Movie/TV new, however I think this is pretty amazing news. I know this revamp has caused some uproar, however, GET OVER IT! It's happening no matter what you fan boys say, just deal with it, it progression Thor will be male again sooner or later.
Mjolnir now reads;
"Whosoever holds this hammer, if SHE be worthy, shall possess the power of… THOR"

5 actresses who could take over as Thor
You may or may not have heard, but Marvel have took the shocking approach of replacing Thor in comics with a now female version. I know it is far to early to even speculate on a female Thor replacing Chris Hemsworths Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While it may be early, that's not to say that it would not be fun as heck to speculate.
Marvel Editor-In-Chief Alex Alonso did say in the interview regarding the change of gender "This really is the one Thor for an extended period of time for which we have no real exit plan" with Time. So it is easily within the realm of possibility that Chris could be replaced in the future, rumour has it he has three movies left on his contract one being "Avenger: Age Of Ultron" and obviously "Thor 3" could his third remaining movie be the end of Hemsworths Thor? As we said it's in the realm of possibilities. Here are five actresses I think could take over live action Thor if the opportunity arose for them, the order they are down in are not in a best to worst or anything. They're just the five I chose.
Jamie Alexander - Alex Alonso "one of the women in Thor's life picks up the hammer. She is in fact worthy. and she becomes Thor" So the first person that should come to mind is Sif, played by the incredibly beautiful and talented Jamie Alexander. People may argue Jane Foster played by Natalie Portman may be suitable, but for me neither Norse looking nor does she have the height.
Ronda Rousey - Ronda may not be know to you, and to be honest I had never heard of her until she was cast in "The Expendables 3". She is a 27 year old UFC fighter who according to fans I have spoken to could hold her own against most men in her division. While Thor isn't know for his hand-to-hand combat he most certainly does encounter some none Moljnir related fights as will his female counterpart. We will just have to see over the coming years how her acting holds up against her ass kicking skills.
Gina Carano - Gina also has the same sort of credentials that Rousey comes with, expect for the fact we have seen Carano act on a few occasions. I really enjoyed her in "Fast & Furious 6" and "Haywire" she isn't the best of actresses, however she is enjoyable to watch. So given her little bit more experience with the acting world she may be a slightly better choice than her fellow UFC fighter.
Kate Beckinsale - The extremely talented Mrs Beckinsale known by us all for undeniable beauty and her role in the Blockbuster franchise Underworld. She sure has heck has the acting ability and she can certainly hold a film if female Thor was to go solo, just look at Selene in Underworld.
Katee Sackhoff - Who doesn't want Sackhoff to take over a lead Action star? I know I do, for years there has been talk of her taking the lead in an Action movie. In more recent years she is being touted for the lead in "The Expendables" female spin-off "Expendabelles". So she already has the hype in this Action world, she can command the attention of the audience when she is on screen like a Norse God would.

Thor 3 gets its writers
After the news yesterday that the Russo brothers would be returning for another instalment in the Captain America franchise, Marvel have broke news that they are moving forward with Thor 3. They announced that Senior Vice President of Production and Development Craig Kyle will script the film along with Christopher Yost who worked on "Thor: The Dark World".
"I am proud of Craig and have enjoyed working with him over these past years," President of Production Kevin Feige said in a prepared statement. "His creative instincts have helped shape 'Thor' and 'Thor: The Dark World' at every level of the filmmaking process. The entire team at Marvel is very happy to continue collaborating with Craig as he continues as a screenwriter working with Christopher on the forthcoming chapter of Thor’s adventure."

"Thor: The Dark World" trailer is here!
Crazy to think this is only the fourth film that director Alan Taylor has done, he has done a lot of television and the transition couldn't have been that easy. However, everything I take from the trailer makes that transition look pretty good for him. Plus we get a lot Idris Elba, which you can't go wrong with. The film has more of Fantasy/Science Fiction feel than the last one, plus it looks a whole lot better than the first. I still don't like the forced relationship between Thor and Jane Foster (Portman) it just doesn't seem to make any sense at all. All in all this film looks a lot better than I expected.

"Thor 2: The Dark World" spoiler???
WARNING these may be spoilers for the film, read at your own risk. In all realness though, they could just be a huge rumour an amount to nothing.
Well looks like somebody has dropped the ball on the next instalment in the "Thor" movie franchise, a rumour/spoiler has made it's way online that the villains in the next movie are set to be Dark Elves. There has been much speculation on whether or not Thor would visit space due to the goings on in "The Avengers". Well, insight into this speculation was fuelled even more so when reportedly, a stuntman working on the film revealed he had been asked to act like an elf.
"The other day I was working on ‘Thor 2,’” he explained. “I had a load of stunt guys in and the director Alan Taylor) came in and he said ‘Look, we want you all to be elves,’ and I was like ‘What the hell is an elf anyway?’ And he said ‘I want you all to walk around like these supernatural animals.’"
Growing up I never read the Thor comics, so I wasn't at all familiar with this character or story arc. According to many of the fan pages out there, they are speculating that if this was the premise of the new film then the villains could be Dark Elves whom are on Thor's arch-nemesis list.

"The Avengers" TV trailer
OK, so the title may be a bit misleading. But I still think you should give it a watch, it brought me a lot of joy.
"A fantastic mash up of various things gives us The Avengers of 1978. I love the fact they use Hawkeye from M.A.S.H. and Peter Wyngarde as Tony Stark is genius. The Avengers together for the first time in this 1978 made for TV movie.. They face off with their greatest foe yet… KISS, under the power of Loki, played by Paul Lynde."

"The Avengers" Captain America & Thor clip
I know there is a lot of "The Avengers" media going around of late, I am not going to apologise for that after seeing this clip you will understand why this film will be the "Summer Blockbuster" in my opinion.
