I wonder how Tom Hiddleston feels now that Benedict Cumberbatch is invading his Marvel territory? I bet Tom is happy. Benedict is like a big brother to him after all. But maybe there’s a little something, deep down, where Tom is like, “Damn, bro. Marvel was MY thing.” But I’m sure it will be fine. Tom’s actually set to have a pretty good 2015 – he should be in the (gossip) news more, and on more red carpets. High Rise, Age of Ultron, Crimson Peak and I Saw the Light will all be released in 2015, so maybe at this time next year, we’ll be talking about Tommy for a potential Golden Globes nomination.

Meanwhile, Tommy is still getting nominations and awards for his work on the stage earlier this year in Coriolanus. Last week, Hiddleston won Best Actor at the London Evening Standard Theatre Awards, and then on Friday, he was nominated for a WhatsOnStage Award for Best Actor in a Play. It’s basically like the People’s Choice of London theatre. Tommy is up against David Tennant, Tom Bateman, Richard Armitage and Mark Strong. If this is truly the People’s Choice of London theatre, I would think that Hiddles would win hands-down (and pants-down). The winners won’t be announced until February 15th. Smack in the middle of the awards season in Hollywood. You can read more about the nominations here.

Oh, and there’s a new documentary which involves actors talking about Shakespeare, so of course Tommy was included. This clip was making the rounds all last week, but I’m pretty sure this is from an older interview.
