Tom Hiddleston Says Loki 'Runs Asgard Pretty Well,' Teases About 'Thor: Ragnarok' [Plot, Release Date & Cast]

After "Thor: The Dark World" ended with a cliffhanger in 2013, much remains unclear as to what really happened to Loki, the God of Thunder's conniving brother. It was suggested in the film's ending that while Thor entrusted the rule of Asgard to his father, Odin, he had no idea that Odin is actually already dead and that it's Loki in disguise, according to Entertainment Weekly.

Tom Hiddleston, the actor who plays Loki, offered a few ideas into what Loki has been up to since. During the press screening for his latest movie "Crimson Peak," the British actor said, "I like to believe that actually he runs Asgard pretty well. The trains run on time and he keeps the streets clean," according to Cinema Blend.

Hiddleston is set to reprise his role for the third installment of "Thor" in "Thor: Ragnarok," but he admits he still doesn't have any concrete details about his role. He also doesn't have any clue if Loki will also appear in succeeding "Avengers" films given that it will be bigger next time.

"You know, I genuinely do not know. I wish there was something I could tell you. I haven't spoken to anyone at Marvel for about two years. That universe is expanding at such a rate, so...your guess is as good as mine," he told Screen Rant.

There were rumors that Loki was supposed to be in the second "Avengers" movie, which ran in theaters this year, and Tom confirmed this to be true. "I was part of the dream sequence for the character of Thor. I shot for a day and enjoyed it very much," the actor said according to Collider. "Then I received a phone call from Kevin Feige [who] said that in test screenings, audiences had overemphasized Loki's role. They thought that because I was in it, I was controlling Ultron." The actor said that he understood why his role had to be cut after watching the movie.

Meanwhile, "Thor: Ragnarok" is set to be released in 2017 after "Spider-Man" reboot runs in theaters. According to The Wrap, indy film director Taika Waititi is favored to direct "Thor 3," with a script written by Christopher Yost and Craig Kyle.

While waiting for further word about "Thor: Ragnarok," Hiddleston remains busy with his other commitments. By 2016, he's TV show with Hugh Laurie, the adaptation of John Le Carre's "The Night Manager" will begin airing on BBC and AMC, according to Variety.
