‘Loki’ must evolve: Tom Hiddleston

By IANS
MUMBAI: Actor Tom Hiddleston has talked about his function Loki, the God of Mischief, and mentioned that the character must evolve and that the newest collection reveals that he can change.

Hiddleston mentioned: “Loki must evolve. The cycle was: Loki is trusted, he betrays, he turns into a villain, he learns to belief once more, he is betrayed, he turns into trusting once more, he may be trusted once more, then he betrays or feels betrayed.

“It’s just this endless cycle of trust and betrayal and resistance. And the character is essentially singing the same song over and over and over again. He’s trapped on a wheel of repetition, a compulsion to repeat the same damage, the same story. And we are breaking that record.”

Hiddleston mentioned that Loki is now being launched from that “trap” within the collection.

“In this story, we’re showing that he can change, that he can grow. And what if the experience of that, and the journey he goes on, actually changes something internal where he can potentially become someone else, or begin from a place of understanding that, if you know who you are, then who you choose to be is a different thing,” he mentioned.

“Loki” is streaming on Disney+ Hotstar Premium and Disney+ Hotstar VIP.
