Natalie Portman has signed on to play Jane Foster in the upcoming comic book movie Thor.

Portman will play an updated version of the Jane Foster character, a nurse who becomes Thor’s first love.

In the pic, the actions of Thor, an arrogant Norse warrior, reignites an ancient war, and as a result, he’s cast down to Earth, where he is forced to live among humans as punishment. Once there, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth.

Getting Portman in this film brings up it’s credibility points a lot. But I still just can’t see the giant hammer being something easily communicable to the big screen.
