I’ve been reading about this for a few months. This sounds really interesting.
Blues-Rock band The Black Keys have teamed up with former Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder Dame Dash to create BlakRoc. A side project for the band, the November 27th (Black Friday) release sees the Akron, Ohio natives collaborate with Hip Hop stars, many of whom remain associates of Dash, on Splash Records.Confirmed guests include Mos Def, RZA, Raekwon, M.O.P. and Pharoahe Monche. An appearance from Ol’ Dirty Bastard was alluded to appear on the lead-single “Coochie,” though alternate versions have already released without the late Wu-Tang Clan personality.
Anthony Hopkins has been cast as Norse god Odin in Marvel Studios’ Thor, to be directed by Kenneth Branagh starting January.
Odin is the father of Thor and Loki, to be played by Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston, respectively. Natalie Portman is playing Thor’s love interest, Jane Foster.
In the movie, written by Mark Protosevich and Zack Stentz, the powerful but arrogant warrior Thor’s reckless actions re-ignite an ancient war. As punishment, Thor is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans. Once here, he learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends dark forces of Asgard to invade Earth.
