Kevin Feige & Tom Hiddleston Talk about THOR 2



Where there are superheroes, there must be a supervillain. In writer/director Joss Whedon’s film THE AVENGERS, that supervillain is Loki, an extraterrestrial played by Tom Hiddleston, who tries to enslave the Earth with the help of a mysterious but extremely violent alien race.

Hiddleston, who hails from London, England, originated the role of the adopted brother of the mighty Thor, played by Chris Hemsworth, in 2011’sTHOR. Hiddleston has a strong stage background in the U.K. and costarred in the 2008-2010 BBC-made series WALLANDERwith Kenneth Branagh, who directed THOR.


2011 was a big feature film year for Hiddleston. Besides THOR, he also had major roles in the intimate drama THE DEEP BLUE SEA, Steven Spielberg’s epic WAR HORSE and Woody Allen’s lyricalMIDNIGHT IN PARIS as Jazz Age iconic writer F. Scott Fitzgerald.


Hiddleston is currently filming in the title role of a telefilm of William Shakespeare’s HENRY V, having wrapped on HENRY IV PARTS I & II. This interview finds him seated in a hotel room at the Beverly Hills Four Seasons after a huge press conference, cordially giving us more details on Loki.
I do what i wantCollapse )



The success of Marvel’s The Avengers has allowed the comic book universe to introduce its rogues gallery to theater-going audiences, bringing in such extraterrestrial villains as Thanos, the Mad Titan. Thor was the first of the recent Marvel movies to use other-worldly magic as a power source instead of Tony Stark’s technology in Iron Man or the science behind the genesis ofCaptain America and the Hulk. In a recent interview, Kevin Feige confirmed that the death-obsessed Eternal would not be making an appearance in Thor 2; another big villain would be stepping in. We know that Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman will reprise the roles of Thor and Jane Foster respectively (not to mention the return of Idris Elba as Heimdall). We also know that Tom Hiddleston will return as Loki, but that’s not a new big villain. And we know Mads Mikkelsen is set to play a villain, so who could it be? Hit the jump to see what Feige had to say.

This is totally OT, but you know how everyone is joking that the zombie apocalypse started this weekend in Florida?

I just got an e-mail from the legal newsletter I am a part of, and the very first article is titled: "Change in Circuit Law Allows Zombie Claim
To Haunt Owens Corning Despite Discharge"

IT'S TRUE.

so I was complaining about having to get up before 6 am this morning, because there is NO GODDAMN reason to get up that early right? And one of my friends was like "what if Tom Hiddleston was bringing you breakfast in bed?"
and I thought about it
and can you IMAGINE his glaringly-bright cheerfulness at fucking 5:45 am?
It'd be like a nightmare D: He'd be all "I brought eggs Benedict eheheheheh"

I'll never be a top commenter lol, I don't comment enough

I like that your screenshot happened when Hiddles was closing his eyes. He looks quite serene there. haha
xpirate_queenx 30th-May-2012 12:41 am (UTC)
If they ever made an F. Scott Fitzgerald biopic starring Tom, I would watch the everloving shit out of it. He was fantastic.

klmnumbers 30th-May-2012 12:43 am (UTC)
I still haven't seen midnight in paris. I'm a pretty terrible hiddlestan, tbh.
xpirate_queenx 30th-May-2012 12:51 am (UTC)
Watch it! It's fantastic! I originally avoided it because I'm a fan of neither Woody Allen or Owen Wilson, but a friend recommended it because quote, "It's [me], the movie." So, I watched it and fell in love. I didn't even know Hiddleston was in it- that was a pleasant surprise. He was great and his American accent is simply superb.


Here's all his bits (he shows up in one other scene, but it's only for about 30 seconds and doesn't say anything), if you must.
klmnumbers 30th-May-2012 12:42 am (UTC)
Oh noesssss... are we dying out? I have basically been in an Avengers post for like 7 hours at this point. I really should... study for the bar... but I think I'm just gonna semi study and keep posting instead.

(I do what I want).

I'll break from my hiddlestan tradition and post some chevans

xpirate_queenx 30th-May-2012 12:43 am (UTC)
I'm ashamed I ever doubted he could play Cap. I can't see anyone else in the role now.
klmnumbers 30th-May-2012 12:44 am (UTC)
Yeah. He's adorable as hell in those movies.
starrika 30th-May-2012 12:50 am (UTC)
I agree. He's absolutely perfect.
dirtylook 30th-May-2012 12:44 am (UTC)
I think the most active stans all went to bed. As I am, too, in a minute!
starrika 30th-May-2012 12:50 am (UTC)
ooh, studying for the bar. I do not envy you. That will be me next summer, ugh. :/
dommon5844 30th-May-2012 04:39 am (UTC)
I have to re-watch Captain America... I originally didn't like it, I think because I didn't like the ending, but I think after seeing the Avengers and all these party posts, I might like it more because of Chris Evans ;)
ladywilde80 30th-May-2012 04:39 am (UTC)
He's just too gorgeous for his own good.

deadtree 30th-May-2012 12:48 am (UTC)
it's sad, but at the same time all these hilarious memes make up for it.
klmnumbers 30th-May-2012 12:46 am (UTC)
Sirs, that is a nasty ass warehouse. You're gonna get tetanus in there!
