Hiddleston actually talked about the audition on Alan Carr’s Chatty Man Talk Show last year, explaining: “When I screen-tested I put on about 20 pounds of muscle, which is about the heaviest I’ve ever been.
“It’s not my natural genetic inheritance… but I’m alright with that. Honestly I think it worked out for the best. Loki’s a great part. He’s the God of Mischief!”
You can see the full interview below, including footage of Hiddleston breaking out his dance moves, again, at the 15.30 mark.Chris Tilly is the Entertainment Editor for IGN in the UK and wants to have a dance-off with Loki. He can be found talking nonsense on both Twitter and MyIGN.
