Who is Chris O'Dowd playing in Thor: The Dark World? Well, the fact that his reportedly brief appearance in the movie will be with Natalie Portman led many to wonder whether he'll make an appearance as Dr. Donald Blake (who was cheekily referenced in THOR). Well, talking to MTV Splash Page recently, the actor was asked directly whether or not he would be interested in playing Daredevil - another character that some fans have speculated may be introduced into the Marvel Cinematic Universe through the actor - now the studio holds the rights. In response, he said only, "There's a lot of talk of that. Maybe some contract talk..." Check out the video for more!







Marvel’s "Thor: The Dark World" continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel’s "Thor" and "Marvel’s The Avengers," Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.
