The following are a few excerpts from
The Sunday Times' Culture magazine with the actor who will play the villainpus Loki in
Thor! Check my transcription out below and be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place!
On His First Day On The Set Of Thor:
"My first day, I walked into a warehouse in Manhattan Beach and there were five stunt doubles rehearsing a huge battle sequence, with 10 or 15 enormous stunt men, playing a race of frost giants. I thought, 'I am in another world.'"
On The Character Of Loki And Tone Of The Movie:
"Weirdly enough, I find a lot of commonality between Archipelago and Thor. They're not going to look the same, they're not going to feel the same, but, actually, both stories are all about family, and each character is wrestling with am external resistance to who they feel they are. It's much more interesting for me as an actor to go in with that angle - who am I?"
Loki: The God Of Mischief EVIL?
"Loki is the younger brother of Thor. In Norse mythology, he's the god of mischief. Then, later, he is the god of evil."
With an all star cast that also includes Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury,
Thor is set to be released in the UK on April 29 and shortly after in the US on May 6, later this year!
