Looks like we're running on empty again this month when it comes to book adaptations. It's somewhat surprising, since the summer movie season is kicking off, but then again, sequels kind of have the box office all wrapped up. Sigh. So, what do we have this month? A couple of comic-book adaptations (one starring ubiquitous actress of the moment Natalie Portman), a chick-lit adaptation (starring ubiquitous rom-com actress of the moment Kate Hudson), and a documentary (starring the ever-ubiquitous Oprah). Also, a Will Ferrell movie that skews more Stranger Than Fiction than Semi-Pro (I, for one, am very thankful). Video after the jump!

Thor, starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, and Anthony Hopkins. Based on the Marvel comics. In theaters May 6.



Something Borrowed, starring Kate Hudson, Ginnifer Goodwin, Colin Egglesfield, and John Krasinski. Based on the novel of the same name by Emily Giffin. In theaters May 6.



Priest, starring Paul Bettany, Cam Gigandet, and Maggie Q. Based on the TokyoPop comics. In theaters May 13.



Everything Must Go, starring Will Ferrell, Rebecca Hall, and Christopher Jordan Wallace. Based on Raymond Carver's short story Why Don't You Dance. In limited release starting May 13.
