It's looking like Natalie Portman won't be charged with being the only female presence in the Thor movie. Talking to MTV during the Brothers junket, Portman mentioned almost offhand that Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist star Kat Dennings will be joining her in the film.

You can see the snippet of video below, in which Portman mentions Dennings so offhand that you'd almost think Dennings had already been confirmed as part of the cast. Indeed she hasn't, and now the comic book nerds are going to need to speak up and explain to the rest of us who on earth Dennings could possibly be playing. Giving that Portman's character is a mortal, Dennings will likely be one as well, since the actresses are excited to work together. Is she another romantic rival for Thor? A new sidekick character? Given the diverse cast of this increasingly exciting-sounding film, pretty much anything is probably possible.
