Tom Hiddleston Talks "Grand" Aspects of THOR, and Playing the God of Mischief!

The actor discuses the impressive elements of Marvel's THOR, including flying as the God of Mischief Loki, fan expectations, and uncertainty of appearing in The Avengers.

Two minutes into this video interview with Leicester Square TV, English actor Tom Hiddleston, who'll be appearing in next summer's THOR, speaks on the impressive elements of the film, as well playing the God of Mischief Loki & appearing in the much-anticipated Avengers movie. Special thanks to my buddy RealIronMan, who not only found the vid, but also provided a transcript below.



Are the fans [of Thor] going to meet their expectations?
"I hope so, man. I mean... it's been a little bit severe, I haven't seen the whole film yet. But my experience in the shoot was absolutely epic. Kenneth Branagh was... um... I've never seen him work so hard on any project, that I've worked with him on. We've done a few things together. You know, it's grand and the scale of it is huge. It involves gods and monsters, and mortals, and science, and magic.I've had a great time with the god of mischief (Loki). My hair was dyed black, down to about my shoulders, a green cape. I flew, I disappeared, I reappeared. It's going to be cool.

Will you be reappearing in "The Avengers"?"
"I... I can't. I genuinely can't tell you. I simply don't know. I know, that in the comics Loki is one of the reasons the Avengers get together, but there's a whole lot of storyline and I simply don't know, which storyline they've picked yet. So, I would love to be able to give you a nice, juicy exclusive, but I can't ... I'm afraid at this point... but the advantage is really exciting. I was there at Comic-Con (talks about the cast, how it was exciting)."


THOR is scheduled for theaters May 6,2011 in 3D. And rumor has it that the trailer for the film will be premiering in front of Disney's Tron: Legacy, December 17th. And it makes perfect sense, being that the Iron Man 2 trailer premiered Dec. 16, and THOR is set to be released the same time of the year as that film.

I have the most secure feeling inside me that both Thor and Captain America will be so epic. They will only add to the hype for the Avengers film.

And they will definitely cement Marvel Studios as a serious film making company. And that might encourage Disney to move in and buy back the rights to any franchise owned by other studios so they can take full advantage of their properties.

@JoshW

I dunno man. I'm honestly hopin' Joss might be pullin' our leg with the whole "Hank and Jan aren't in it."

This difference of feelings I get between Green Lantern and this is the same difference between nursing a semi and struggling to contain a fully raging boner in the confines of pants three sizes too small!

I'm sure he'll do great as Loki and I think Thor will probably be next year's best CBM, but I hope they follow the Ultimates storyline for the Avengers movie (which would make sense since Cap wasn't an Avenger when they banded together to fight the Hulk).

Intruder - "which one is the fully raging boner?" Let's just say, it takes a man of pure and nobel spirit to lift it ;-)

If Loki's the main villain in Thor, I really can't see him been the main villain in The Avengers. It'll be interesting to see what both films are gonna give us.

For the record, Thor is going to be the king of cbm's next year.
