Chris Hemsworth Is Not an American Assassin

Chris Hemsworth has taken his mighty hammer and smashed an offer to star in American Assassin for CBS Films. "For Odin, for Asgard… for myself!"

Deadline reports that the Thor actor has decided to not play terrorist hunter Mitch Rapp in the film, which is based on the Vince Flynn series of novels. It was reported last month that Hemsworth was offered a cool $10 million to star.

Timing is said to be the reason the deal fell apart, as Mr. Hemsworth is quite busy lately with Thor 2, Steven Spielberg's Robopocalypse and, eventually, Avengers 2.

Chris Hemsworth Has American Assassin in His Sights

Avengers and Thor star Chris Hemsworth may put his mighty hammer down long enough to play the lead role in American Assassin, CBS Films' adaptation of the Vince Flynn novel.

Deadline claims Hemsworth has been made a $10 million offer to play terrorist hunter Mitch Rapp in the action-thriller: "The novel is a prequel that explains how tragedy transformed Rapp from a college scholar and athlete into a ruthless hunter of terrorists for the CIA."

Also in talks to join the film is Bruce Willis, who would play Rapp’s mentor.

Jeffrey Nachmanoff (Homeland, Traitor) will direct from a script by Mike Finch, who rewrote an earlier draft by Ed Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz.

Hemsworth's next film after wrapping Thor: The Dark World will be Steven Spielberg's Robopocalypse.

Hemsworth May Star in Spielberg's Robopocalypse

Director Steven Spielberg reportedly wants Aussie actor Chris Hemsworth to star in his upcoming sci-fi epic Robopocalypse.

Deadline claims that, "amid much secrecy (including assumed names), Spielberg met and now wants Hemsworth in his next helping effort." The site adds, though, that no official offer has been made yet to Hemsworth, who has had a great summer with two hits under his belt, The Avengers and Snow White and the Huntsman.

Based on Daniel H. Wilson's book, Robopocalypse recently received a rewrite from Drew Goddard, who also directed Hemsworth in The Cabin in the Woods.

Hemsworth next shoots Thor: The Dark World for Marvel Studios and Disney.
