The Warriors Three Has Been Cast in “Thor” Movie
According to Variety, Stuart Townsend, Ray Stevenson, and Tadanobu Asano will play the Warrior’s Three, a trio of Asgardian adventurers who fight alongside “Thor.”
Fandral the Dashing (Stuart Townsend): is a warrior of Asgard and an adventurer. He is an irrepressible swashbuckler and romantic. His bravery and optimism often puts the group in highly disadvantageous positions; as perennially pointed out by the gloomy Hogun. Fandral considers himself the consummate ladies’ man and is often depicted with a bevy of young ladies. His actual success with these ladies is intermittent at best, but as such provides numerous opportunities for humorous results. Despite these flaws, he possesses an excessively noble spirit and will do the right thing without thought to his personal safety or prosperity.
Hogun the Grim (Tadanobu Asano): The only thing known about his past is that he’s not an Aesir like most of the Asgardians. Also, his unnamed homeland was conquered long ago by Mogul of the Mystic Mountain, who slew Hogun’s forebears and laid waste to the land. He is primarily characterized by his brusque, taciturn, and often short-tempered demeanor. He is the brooding pessimist of the group, as opposed to Volstagg’s irrepressible good humor and Fandral’s brash heroism. He is a fierce and unrelenting warrior, a collector of weaponry and often the voice of reason for the Warriors Three.
