1
I've never felt suspense quite like this.
2
One of these guys should be called Thor and the other one should be called Loki.
3
Loki's won it.
4
No, Thor's come back.
5
Oh, yes!
6
This is like the MCU.
7
It's gonna take a couple of movies to figure this out.
8
Hello, I'm Tom Hiddleston, and today I'm with BuzzFeed to play with some puppies.
9
It's an unusual privilege to be here,
10
sitting in this ocean of pink,
11
and waiting to meet some puppies, but I can't wait.
12
Bring in the puppies.
13
Oh my goodness.
14
You a bit sleepy?
15
Oh, sweet.
16
Hello, darling.
17
Oh, shake it out.
18
You go over there.
19
That's more interesting.
20
What's your name?
21
Do you have a name?
22
Not yet.
23
I actually feel extremely calm.
24
We're here to say hello to BuzzFeed.
25
Do you know what BuzzFeed is?
26
Not yet.
27
One day, maybe.
28
They just re-root you in the present moment.
29
And now they're gone.
30
There's the most extraordinary ensemble in this film.
31
Chiwetel Ejiofor, Karen Gillan, Mark Hamill, Mia Serra.
32
My stuff was with Anneliese Basso and the pocket queen,
33
Taylor Gordon, who's the drummer.
34
And we had this moment together where something completely spontaneous happens in the street on a Thursday afternoon
35
and there's this extraordinary dance.
36
We covered the dance from all kinds of different angles.
37
The camera was sometimes rather like old school musicals,
38
like singing in the rain, standing back, really objective.
39
And other times the camera was swooping in and around us and among us and dancing with us.
40
It was so free and so joyful and so spontaneous and committed and felt and passionate.
41
I think I've never experienced that feeling on a set before,
42
like, that was perfect.
43
I remember dogs love this position when they're young.
44
It makes them feel safe and you can just give them a little tickle there.
45
Oh, sweetheart, that's right.
46
It's all very, very sweet.
47
Mike Flanagan is an extraordinary man.
48
He wrote the screenplay, he directed the film, he edited the film.
49
He's found a way of adapting the material by Stephen King,
50
which acknowledges that our lives can be difficult,
51
that they can be hard and they can be full of loss and grief,
52
but they're also full of joy, aren't they?
53
Yes, it is.
54
So I spoke to Mike and I said,
55
Mike, I really think this is like a profound piece of writing
56
because it's sort of about how joy is part of the human experience.
57
And it's part of the puppy experience.
58
Yes, it is.
59
Oh, yes, it is.
60
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah.
61
One of these guys should be called poor and the other one should be called Loki.
62
You know you guys wanna be called Loki?
63
I've met a lot of dogs called Loki.
64
This guy's like a Loki I think.
65
He's got the strain of mischief in him.
66
I've worked with a lot of them now and that's been the great joy actually is like,
67
it's hard to pick one because they're all such extraordinary actors and such great people.
68
But I'm trying to think of the ones I haven't worked with.
69
I'd like to work with Daredevil because Charlie Cox is a dear friend of mine.
70
I think Loki and Daredevil would have a fun matchup.
71
Charlie and I were going to play together on Broadway on Halloween.
72
I dressed up as Daredevil and he dressed up as Loki.
73
It was really fun.
74
Do you like this?
75
Do you like this?
76
Oh, who wants it?
77
Do you want to bring it back?
78
Oh, clever boy.
79
I've never danced.
80
Are you a dancer?
81
Jump if you're a dancer.
82
Yes!
83
I was never classically trained as a dancer.
84
And what I loved about this was that I got to kind of do a fast track classical training in a way.
85
Yeah, it also just gave me like incredible respect for the extraordinary stamina and athleticism of dancers.
86
I don't think I ever have taken something from a set.
87
I'm really like, I've been really well behaved and I sort of just have left stuff.
88
I really wanted to take my shoes from the set of The Life of Chuck,
89
but Mike Flanagan has those.
90
I'm actually glad he does because I burned holes in the soles of them.
91
So by the end of all the dancing there were just literally holes in the bottom of my shoes.
92
You could see my socks.
93
There's a scarf in Thor that I wore as Loki.
94
I come down.
95
Loki comes down to Earth and he tries to lift Mjolnir,
96
Thor's hammer, and he can't.
97
And I've got that scarf.
98
This is like the Clash of the Titans right here.
99
Come on.
100
Oh yeah.
101
Loki's won it.
102
No, Thor's come back.
103
Oh yes!
104
This is like the MCU take a couple of movies to figure this out.
105
So in the life of Chuck, it's not just me.
106
It's Cody Flanagan, Jacob Tremblay, and Benjamin Payjack.
107
Benjamin Payjack breaks my heart in the film.
108
Like, he's just, I think he gives a performance of such sweetness and innocence.
109
He might as well be one of these puppies.
110
I was lucky, because I got to start the Chuck journey in the schedule and Benjamin came to meet me on set.
111
And I didn't realize this,
112
but he was watching me dance.
113
I then, I finished my work and I went home,
114
and he put little accidental,
115
unconscious things that I was doing with my hands,
116
or with little things I was doing with my body that I wasn't aware I was doing,
117
and he's incorporated them into his performance.
118
Just an extraordinary, luminous, gifted actor.
119
Yes, so many.
120
We were on a volcano in Iceland,
121
in Thor the Dark World, I think.
122
It was so windy and so cold,
123
we couldn't hear each other.
124
We couldn't believe we were standing on a volcano in these costumes.
125
I can't remember what one of us said, we got the giggles.
126
The giggles is a very dangerous thing, I'm sorry.
127
And we're like, get it together.
128
And that's the worst, because you can't.
129
You know, there's so many like that.
130
I love running to this song by Bon Iver called Eight Circle.
131
Also kind of like cloud-piercing and majestic.
132
And it's a great song to run to.
133
There was one where I was playing Prince Howe in an adaptation of Henry IV Part I by William Shakespeare.
134
And we shot this battle in a field in England in February.
135
And I was wearing chain mail.
136
It snowed overnight and we shot the first day of the battle in the melting snow.
137
I got pulled off a horse,
138
so I was just rolling around in this kind of slushy, muddy, icy snow.
139
And the next day, 5 in the morning,
140
I arrived and it was like costume supervisor said,
141
so they've got to match continuity to yesterday,
142
so can you put this back on?
143
And it was this frozen, metal, muddy encasement.
144
And I had to basically,
145
they had to spray me down with water to match the rain
146
and put fresh mud on me at like 5 a.m and I was like, woof.
147
It was tough back then.
148
Come and get it, come on.
149
Oh, where is it?
150
Where is it?
151
Where has it gone?
152
That's not, that's his leg.
153
That's not the fluffy toy.
154
Probably like what happened in the show,
155
what happened in the low-key series for Disney Plus.
156
I really did think I was out, retired from the team.
157
And then a year later,
158
Kevin Feige and Louis T.S.
159
Vigio called me and said,
160
so we've got this idea.
161
Started discussing what the show might look like and I was like,
162
okay, let's go again.
163
Actually, that ended up being,
164
in a way, the most fulfilling redemption.
165
For me, another chance to play the character,
166
but for Loki, another chance to sort of define his purpose.
167
I have no idea.
168
If I weren't an actor,
169
what job would I be good at?
170
I honestly, in my head,
171
I never had a backup plan,
172
because I always thought if I have a backup plan,
173
the chances are I might use it.
174
And this was all I ever really wanted to do.
175
If I had to choose,
176
I'd probably love to teach.
177
I actually get a lot of satisfaction from that.
178
Guys, I think he's had enough of his ear being bitten now.
179
Oh, that's right.
180
If you give it, you have to take it.
181
I cry thinking about movies.
182
I actually cried yesterday thinking about The Shawshank Redemption.
183
I remember watching that film when I was 14 and I found it overwhelmingly moving.
184
I find I just cry all the time now.
185
I just find movies incredibly emotional.
186
Marley and Me is a killer.
187
I didn't make it through that film.
188
I mean, I did make it,
189
but I couldn't see after a while.
190
It was all just blurry and misty.
191
And when I worked with Owen Wilson,
192
it took me about six months to tell him how much I loved that movie.
193
It's true.
194
We were between setups on Loki,
195
and I was like, Owen,
196
I just have to tell you.
197
I think Marley and Me is a masterpiece.
198
He was like, oh, thanks, man, thank you.
199
What do you think?
200
Have you seen a movie?
201
No. I feel calmer, I feel wiser.
202
I'll never forget it.
203
This guy, he's now gone so flat,
204
but he's very peaceful and I feel that we had a bond.
205
What do you think?
206
Do you want to have a sleep as well? Or not?
207
Not yet.
208
Too busy.
209
Too many things to do.
210
If you would like to adopt one of these beautiful little puppies,
211
or any puppies like these,
212
you can head over to Positive Beginnings.
213
The life of Chuck is in theatres now.

Practice Tips
To effectively use the shadowing technique in this lesson, follow these tips to enhance your English speaking practice:
- Watch and Listen: Start by watching the video once without trying to repeat what he says. Focus on his tone and emotions, especially his use of humor and expressions.
- Slow it Down: Use the video playback feature to slow down the speech. This will help you catch nuances in pronunciation and rhythm.
- Repeat in Chunks: Break down the dialogue into smaller segments. Listen to a sentence or phrase, pause, and then repeat it back. This method helps you internalize patterns and improve pronunciation.
- Record Yourself: After a few rounds of shadowing, record your own voice and play it back. Compare your intonation and speed with Hiddleston’s to identify areas for improvement.
- Engage Emotionally: Try to match not just the sounds but also the emotions conveyed in the interview. This will enhance your speaking skills and make your English sound more natural and fluid.
By practicing consistently with this engaging content, you will not only improve your fluency but also develop the confidence needed for any speaking situation, including real-life dialogues and standardized tests like the IELTS.
Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
