Loki Does Shakespeare
Good timing for me - just saw The Avengers last night. Normally it's the good guys - Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo - that get all the press. But if I say the name Tom Hiddleston would you know who I meant?
Well, trick question, I gave it away in the subject line ;). Having just wrapped Henry IV for an upcoming BBC release, check out Loki himself giving us something the audience is more likely to recognize, a little Henry V. Hiddleston plays Hal, alongside such names as Jeremy Irons and John Hurt. Should be a good one!

Saw this on Tumblr yesterday and my little fangirl heart about died of happiness. ;)
Hi Duane,
I bet you enjoyed the Robert Downey Jnr/Iron Man "Shakespeare in the Park" mocking of Thor's outfit...but my favourite dialogue
was The Hulk's two-word reply to Loki's invective.
The trailer for the upcoming
BBC Richard 2nd and Henriad play
sequence is now airing:
