Could Alexander Godunov (Karl) have made a good Thor?

The real question is, could a half-decent 'Thor' movie have been made when Alexander Godunov was a little more alive? The answer is 'no'; although film critics point to 'Superman' (1978) as the genesis of the modern superhero film, the genre really did not begin to prosper until Tim Burton's 'Batman' (1989), by which time Godunov was already forty years old. One might ask the same question about a hundred other dead Hollywood actors with blonde hair and funny accents. But why stop there? What about Troy Donahue? Or James Dean? Or Errol Flynn, for that matter? What if the superhero genre were established in Hollywood in the 1960s? Or the 50s? Or earlier? Godunov himself would likely not have been interested, unless there were an established pattern for such films. He had the wrong body, and although he kept himself in good shape, his physique was too tall and too light for such a role. His appearance in 'Die Hard' is anomalous, since he didn't much care for action films; but then again he is a relatively minor character, and his final scene is clearly lifted from that of the Queen Alien in 'Aliens' (1986), complete with an unused chunk of James Horner's musical score for that film. We must also remember Godunov had a fairly successful career as a ballet dancer, then decided to defect, thinking he would be the next Mikhail Baryshnikov... and that just didn't work out, as the west had already tired of ballet. So acting was a second choice at best, one the actor was chiefly interested in for money, and publicity. Godunov continued to ply his acting career, appearing in a variety of quirky roles... and then he was dead. And that was a quarter of a century ago.
