Anthony Hopkins Being DIVA On Thor Set!
Not cool, Anthony Hopkins ! Just because you played freaky ass Hannibal Lector doesn’t mean you run the show!! Apparently there’s some serious dramz going down on the set of the movie Thor because the Hop doesn’t think his inexperienced co-star Chris Hemworth , who plays the title character, cuts it as an actor! A source says: “Anthony has not tried to hide his disapproval of Chris’ acting skills. Chris is definitely the least-experienced actor on set, but he’s trying. He respects Anthony a great deal, and it looks like he’s trying to grin and bear all of his criticism. Anthony keeps complaining that they’re shooting too many scenes inside the L.A. studio and not enough on location. Everyone is cranky and frustrated that it’s taking so long. But it’s a very high-tech movie, and it just takes time to get things right. He isn’t used to this kind of work, and his pessimism is really starting to wear everyone down.” Puh-LEASE. Didn’t he have to do all that weird CGI shiz for Beowulf ? Sounds to us like he’s just acting like an old fart!! It’s not like he signed up for a serious, character driven think piece! The movie is called Thor ! Act like an adult! [ Image via WENN .]
