Edris Elba
Thats Heimdal, Norse god
Elba would be paying Heimdall, who guads the ranbow bridge to Earth, Sounds the horn that will start Ragnarok, will be the last god standing along with Loki at the end of it, etc etc
So, were they against a black guy playing Heimdall? - Sunday, December 26, 2010 11:38:00 PM

Yeah, they were against a black guy playing Heimdall in the movie*, as you put it. They totally know Heimdall of the Golden Teeth personally. Meet him for tea and crumpets everyday at 5 PM I suppose.
* Which is based on the comic book "Thor" which doesn't even claim to be an accurate representation of Norse myth (it has aliens etc). - Friday, December 31, 2010 7:19:00 PM
