WHUA? After seeing Thor, I can’t really imagine anyone else playing the title character besides Chris Hemsworth, least of all the treacherous Loki. Well it turns out that very well could have been the case. In this interview with MTV, actor Tom Hiddleston explains that there was a chance he could have had the starring role in the Marvel film because of some peculiarly worded small print in his contract. We’re glad things worked out the way they did though because Hiddleston made a delicious Loki and we can’t wait to see him reprise the role in The Avengers and Thor 2.
