With "Iron Man" holding on to #1 at the box office for a second week, the Marvel properties certainly do seem hotter than ever. They've already announced "Captain America," talked about possibilities for an "Avengers" flick, and given "Thor" a June 4, 2010 due date.

So we're sure you've heard the speculation about Brad Pitt being the top name being tossed around for the title role. We wonder, now that "Layer Cake" director Matthew Vaughn is no longer helming the picture (apparently because his holding deal expired) does that mean Jason Statham isn't a contender? We're not sure if we should be relieved or disappointed.

But who do you think would make the most kickass Norse God of Thunder? Well, we think the star should be someone who made an unlikely appearance as the perceived hero back in 1987.

Yeah, that's Vincent D'onofrio in the film "Adventures in Babysitting." Amazing, right? So what are the requirements for the mightiest Thor? Does he have to be blonde? Buff? Have an affinity for helmets? Chime in below with your own thoughts.

After burning up the pages of the Maxim Hot 100 list at #24, Sophia Bush is ready to set fire to the silver screen. The "One Tree Hill" leading lady is currently shooting "The Narrows" alongside Eddie Cahill and Vincent D'Onofrio. "It's a sort of 'Donnie Brasco'/'Goodfellas' mafia story," reveals Bush of the crime drama. "I kind of end up being a window for this wonderful boy from his world into the world that he's trying to get to."

Describing the movie as "very gritty," the project is just another step in Bush's burgeoning career, which has included roles in films like "The Hitcher" and "John Tucker Must Die," along with her long-running part in the popular CW show. "I'm just always trying to do something different," exclaims the actress, "so it's kind of another notch in the belt for me."

"The Narrows" is set to hit theaters in 2008.
