Chris Hemsworth and Co. on Avengers Ego-Clashing and Thor Sequel Plans

With Thor poised to kick-off the next chapter in Marvel’s superhero empire this week, the film’s stars and creatives found themselves looking to the future at a press conference Sunday in Los Angeles. Though actors Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston were loathe to drop details on the currently-filming Avengers , they gave a teaser of what to expect when their godly alter egos collide with human superheroes like Iron Man and Hulk in the Joss Whedon-helmed 2012 pic.

David O. Russell Considering Buddy Cianci Biopic?

Tribeca Film Festival co-founder Jane Rosenthal said that David O. Russell is considering directing an adaptation of former Providence mayor Buddy Cianci’s book Politics and Pasta , which follows the author’s years of busting mobsters and landing in jail on racketeering charges. Could Rosenthal partner Robert De Niro, who reportedly made a deal with Cianci back in 2008 and may appear in Russell’s Uncharted , help seal the deal — and, perhaps, star as the notorious politician?

TRAILER: Daydream Nation Explores Kat Dennings’s Sonic Youth

Kat Dennings to Play One of Two Broke Girls for CBS

Here at Movieline HQ, we’re unabashed Kat Dennings supporters — and speaking for myself, that means even the atrocious-looking Thor will probably get my disposable income — so the news that the Nick and Norah star is potentially headed to weekly television glory is a great way to close out the week. Dennings has been cast in the Michael Patrick King/Whitney Cummings-produced CBS pilot Two Broke Girls as Max, the broke-r of the two lead females who work at a Brooklyn diner while trying to raise cash for their big business venture. Sounds like How to Make It In America but awesome. [ Deadline ]

Humor! Action! Kat Dennings! Now THIS is a Thor Trailer!

Can we all agree that the Thor marketing materials thus far have been a little less than thrilling? Good. Because now we really have something to look forward to from the Kenneth Branagh-directed Marvel actioner — an epic-scale tent pole set on two worlds with a sense of humor about itself, lots of swirling, hammer-smashing action, fantastical villains and creatures to ogle, and the acknowledged fetishizing of Chris Hemsworth’s abs.
