"It's a huge compliment," Tom Hiddleston told USA Today about doing James Bond. "I wish there were some credence I could give [but] it only exists as an idea,"

However, the star that got famous as Loki cleared Daniel Craig is not yet officially leaving his trademark role as the secret service agent. "It's just none of my business. Daniel Craig is James Bond until further notice," Tom Hiddleston said.
