But that’s all I will tell you. I’ve been here for 10 days. We’re really just at the beginning. I think they officially started filming just last week. It’s great. I’m having such a good time. Taika Waititi is brilliant, and his vision for his Thor film is so full of wit and humor and drama. He’s really been so attentive over the screenplay. I’m so excited. It’s a hell of a cast. It’s got quite a lineup.”

Who’s he fighting? Well, it could me Ruffalo’s Hulk, or Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie; these potential combatants are currently on location with Hiddleston. According to Tom, the rest of the impressive cast is due to arrive a little later.

“There are some heavy hitters in the lineup, and not everyone is here yet,” he said of his co-stars. “It’s Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Tessa Thompson, and myself,” he added.“We’ve got some others coming. Thus far, it’s really fun. And also, it’s been three years since I’ve played. I think I last wore the costume at Comic-Con in 2013. It was 2012 when we wrapped The Dark World. It’s just been a long time, and to don the black hair and leather and all of Loki’s stuff is good fun.”

When we last saw Loki…he was on the Throne of Asgard. I’m very, very curious to see how this plays out, and if Hulk will slap him on the ground like a sun-dried trout for another 15-minutes.

Excited for the return of Hiddleston’s Loki? No? Yes? Let us know below!
