1
First of all, I want to get clear.
2
How were you pronouncing your character's name?
3
Loki.
4
Loki.
5
Because I swear Anthony was saying Loki all the way through.
6
Well, he's Welsh, so maybe that's...
7
I think he says Loki.
8
Loki like that in his deep gravitas, sincere way.
9
Yeah, there you go.
10
Loki.
11
And so how many times have people said you've given a Loki performance?
12
A few times initially when I got cast, my friends were like...
13
In fact, I got given by one of my best friends a very, very tiny key.
14
And it was supposed to be my talisman for the...
15
He said, it's for a low door.
16
It's the key to a low door.
17
I was like, nice one, Tom.
18
I see what you're doing there.
19
And of course, I saw the film yesterday and I genuinely really enjoyed it really enjoyed it.
20
It was great fun.
21
What got me about what you had to do?
22
It's that helmet.
23
I mean, what was it like having to wear that all the time?
24
Yeah, well, you know, it is in the comics.
25
Loki has a pair of satanic horns on his head the entire time.
26
So if I didn't do that, I think I probably would have scrimped on the character in some way.
27
But it also makes you stand up straighter.
28
But the costumes were They were so beautifully made, but they had a weight to them.
29
So when you've got film lights shining on you, it can get quite hot under there.
30
And then if you put what I used to call the steel balaclava on my head, there's nowhere for the heat to go.
31
So my brain would slowly turn to scrambled eggs.
32
Which is, I think, why Loki is so angry all the time.
33
But, you know, it gives you so much.
34
It's like, I remember reading something where Christian Bale was trying not to complain about wearing the Batsuit
35
and how hot it was in there.
36
Of course it gets hot when you're wearing heavy costumes, but you get to be a superhero, so there's no complaints.
37
Absolutely.
38
I mean, right at the end of the film, there's a bit where you have to lay down with your head back.
39
Were the horns getting in the way there, or did they have special horns for laying down scene?
40
They didn't, no. No, I guess it's just, it all feeds into the mix in a way when you're shooting.
41
You have to roll with the punches and go with the flow.
42
And I do think that the weight of the whole costume
43
and the weight of those horns on my head kind of fed into Loki's distress in that moment.
44
He's really not in a happy place in his own mind at that point.
45
So any kind of discomfort just goes with the territory, I think.
46
When you first got the role, what did you know about comics?
47
What did you know about Norse gods?
48
Did you quickly go to Wikipedia?
49
I knew about the mythology.
50
Also, as a child, I had a pack of Marvel superheroes' top trumps with all of their vital statistics.
51
So I knew Thor and Loki in the Marvel context through that.
52
But from day one, it was just about immersing myself in the world of the comics.
53
And the more I read, the more of a fanboy I became in my own way.
54
In a way, they're such extraordinary stories.
55
The size of them, they're so deep and rich, and they kind of take you in different directions.
56
And very cool.
57
I mean, if you read a few, did you read the one where Thor gets turned into a frog?
58
Did you read that one?
59
I must have done, yeah.
60
I don't remember that one specifically right now.
61
I was just wondering whether you'd like Loki to do that in any sequels.
62
I do remember that, actually.
63
It's one of his, yeah, there's an element of the sort of shape-shifting aspect of Loki, which I always liked.
64
You know, I remember there's a version where he turns a whole street of cars in New York into ice cream.
65
And then he goes down and turns whales on Earth into sea serpents, just to see how the sailors cope, and those kind of things.
66
So he does a lot of kind of magic spells, which I don't get to do so much in this one, but hopefully in the future I will.
67
Well, you just mentioned that.
68
it seems now definite that you're involved somehow in Avengers at the very least.
69
I don't know that's true actually.
70
You don't know?
71
I know that Loki will come back.
72
I really don't.
73
I know that Loki's gonna come back in some capacity, lurking in the shadows in some unpredictable way.
74
But I actually don't know that it's gonna be the Avengers, so...
75
I would just kind of assume that from the post-credits scene.
76
Oh, I see, yeah.
77
Well, we'll...
78
I don't know.
79
Who knows, man.
80
And I mean, obviously the other big thing about this film, as opposed to your usual superhero film, is Kenneth Branagh directed it.
81
I know.
82
I mean, you know, what was it like having him as a director and how did his big Shakespearean background, did that come into it at all?
83
Oh, I think so.
84
I mean, I think he's such an amazing storyteller
85
and he has a kind of mastery of the beats and twists and turns of what really makes a good story.
86
And Shakespeare's plays are full of kings and queens and princes who are all competing for each other's affection and pride.
87
And really this is exactly that.
88
This is a king and his two sons who are princes competing for his affection, love and pride.
89
So I think what's wonderful about Cairn is he's got an appreciation for the genre.
90
It's a huge sci-fi fantasy adventure epic,
91
but wrapped inside that is a dynastic drama and also a kind of comedy caper romance as well.
92
So it's really amazing what he's done, I think.
93
I mean, when you originally met with him, what tone did he say he was trying for the film?
94
Because I was quite surprised by the tone and how we embraced the comic so much.
95
Yeah, I think he always wanted to make something classic and weighty.
96
He didn't want to be too glib.
97
And I don't think he was interested necessarily in emulating other comic book films.
98
I think he wanted just to put his own stamp on it.
99
I think he has an innately warm and redemptive heart.
100
I think he wanted there to be some sort of redemption in a way.
101
And it's a very pure story.
102
It's about the hero's journey from arrogance to humility.
103
So that was his story.
104
And that's just been wrapped up.
105
One final quick question.
106
If you were a god yourself, what would you want to be the god of?
107
Oh my goodness.
108
At this moment in time, because I'm not as good as I would like to be, I'd like to be the god of piano playing.
109
Excellent.
110
There you go, because I'm trying to get better.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
