Tom Hiddleston talks SDCC, appearing as Loki, ‘Thor Ragnarok’
SDCC Fans got a big dose of Tom Hiddleston, who made an appearance with the Kong: Skull Island panel and spoke with Deadline about the Comic-Con experience, appearing as Loki ahead of the Avengers and now filming the third Thor film, Thor: Ragnarok.
“Turning up as Loki three years ago was an unprecedented moment for me in my short career and it was just so much fun. It was more fun than should be allowed. Partly because it’s so rare that you get to play a character from film in a live context and there’s this theatrical cosmic fascist standing onstage being cheered by seven thousand people and we all loved it. I think we all had a good time anyway.”
Hiddleston was then asked about director Taika Waititi and how things will be different in Thor: Ragnarok.
“I think the experience being in The Avengers has changed Thor as a character. He’s picked-up a few Earthly ways and certainly a few Earthly companions. And also, the experience of being on Earth, I think, has changed Loki. I don’t want to reveal too much, but when you see the three characters who haven’t shared the same space since the end of Avengers there’s a lot that happens to great dramatic and comedic effects.”
