While in Toronto Film Festival promoting Ben Wheatley‘s High-Rise and Marc Abraham‘s Hank Williams biopic I Saw the Light, Hiddleston sat down with Collider to chat about Kong: Skull Island, where he will be joined by his co-actor from Avengers, Samuel L. Jackson.
The movie is essentially going to be a King Kong prequel, and as to whether it'll be period movie or not, Hiddleston says "I don’t know if I’m supposed to reveal that to you. There is a period, but I don’t want to reveal what it is yet."
Here is what he could reveal of the role he plays in the movie : "Well, Kong: Skull Island is the next thing on the books. It’s so exciting. I’ve been digging around in some dark material, to be honest. There’s something very heroic about my character in Skull Island. He’s an adventurer, he’s an explorer. I mean, it’s a King Kong film. There we go. [laughs] The way Jordan Vogt-Roberts has conceived of it, there’s something in there which I find very compelling about King Kong as an emblem of the power of nature in some way, and man’s relationship to it. I think he’s got just brilliant ideas about exploring that. Incredible sequences, a particular context they put King Kong in that you’ve never see him in before, so I’m really excited."
He was also asked about Thor:Ragnarok, in which he was able to reveal much, much less info:
“I’m sorry to say I have nothing to give you. I literally have nothing. I don’t know what’s happening. [laughs] That’s what I know, that’s literally the limits of what I know. Honestly, I don’t know,” he continued when asked about how many more Marvel features are in store for him: “It’s all in Kevin Feige’s brain. It feels like the Marvel Universe is expanding at such a rate, and I wish – I’m not being coy – I don’t know where Loki fits into that. So we’ll see. Your guess is as good as mine.”
