Tom Hiddleston (1000)

Thread to talk about actor Tom Hiddleston

here's a link to photos from last night première in Paris for Thor:The Dark World

>>150 Mark Gatiss took care of that. Besides, if there's a guy who never seemed gay to me is TH.

152 Name: Boo : 2014-02-01 20:56 ID:1S37reoB

>>151 He's not obviously, and that twitter post was only last week. Beginning over year ago though, there were threads on DL with the title "is Tom Hiddleston gay" and the rehash of the Kenneth Branagh rumour. Just my conspiracy theory of course.

153 Name: yep : 2014-02-02 09:43 ID:2sM5vKfp

When he went in Guinea with LW last year there was a lot of silly rumours too.

154 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-02 15:09 ID:r7fzIVtd

I was wondering, it would never be possible for TH to be cast in a DC Comics film since he's under contract with Marvel right? Especially now THOR3 is going to happen.

155 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-02 15:18 ID:r7fzIVtd

Oh, went on tumblr to find some reports because I read that in lack of stage door, fans wait and then follow TH to his car and found this:

Hadley Fraser kissing Tom Hiddleston during Coriolanus
http://instagram.com/p/jz0wBBr_aq/#

Also saw a video of the scene where Coriolanus kisses his wife and Coriolanus being killed at the end!
It was bound to happen after the NTL, I'm just surprised there isn't a copy of the whole play around.

156 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-04 07:43 ID:avf76sHj

>>"PLEASE go home! Please don't try to find the other exits to the building! Tom will not come out until you've all dispersed! Please don't go around back! Please don't try to find his car! Please don't harass the other actors trying to get to their cars, I've told you this night after night, please, please, this is the end of the evening, please leave!"

I wonder how many will stalk the Toronto studio while he-s there for CP.

157 Name: yep : 2014-02-04 14:26 ID:2sM5vKfp

He was too amenable in past. I'm glad he stops now

Also confirmed by Whaeatley in a tweet.

Let's cross fingers because, you know, with the man's luck you never know.

161 Name: yep : 2014-02-05 18:38 ID:2sM5vKfp

it seems another indie film

162 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-05 20:11 ID:D2/umL5i

Still, the film where he will be the only lead actor.

Also I read the film will be set in 1975 like in the book, I imagine TH is happy he has a chance to dance to the '70s music, even if briefly.

About High Rise
http://www.screendaily.com/5066184.article

>>HanWay is handling sales and will be shopping the film at the European Film Market (EFM) in Berlin this week.

Does this means they still don't have the funds?

164 Name: yep : 2014-02-06 10:12 ID:2sM5vKfp

I bet his character will be Anthony Royal.

Crimson peak is on the move (https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=10153912283695495&id=254377915494)and bless jim and his full details post

Hia assistant and LW followed Wheatley right after the news popped up, this guy lives in a golden cage

165 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-06 10:44 ID:bpU3FXSz

>>164 No, in the article I linked it says Hiddleston will play Robert Laing.

I read Jim Beaver tweet a few days ago when he was leaving for Toronto, but this update is much better. If all cast is already there, I think TH will leave right after the end of Coriolanus and will skip the BAFTA this year.
Better for him, but also too bad, I really wanted to see him alone on the red carpet and see what crazy explanations some people will come up with for that, lol.
In that sense, I'm also happy the two female actresses of CP are both with bf so nobody will start idiotic rumours.

Is that strange? After all LW is his publicist not his agent, it's his job to keep track.

166 Name: yep : 2014-02-06 11:22 ID:2sM5vKfp

No, i don't think it's strange, just i don't like it, but it's not my life so. Anyway no bafta but he'll probably come back from toronto for oliver awards in april, especially if he's gonna have a nomination for coriolanus

167 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-06 11:44 ID:bpU3FXSz

haha it's ok, I find peculiar that he even needs an assistant since he seems to like to do everything by himself.

He might even be done with CP by then. Going by critics reviews he is supposed to get a nomination, but then again the panellists and SOLT members aren't just made by journalists.

168 Name: yep : 2014-02-06 12:02 ID:2sM5vKfp

169 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-06 12:08 ID:bpU3FXSz

hahaha clear sign that he does NOT have a gf.

hey, what's his assistant name?

170 Name: yep : 2014-02-06 12:22 ID:2sM5vKfp

Olly Auld (ollyauld42 on twitter)

171 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-06 12:35 ID:bpU3FXSz

>>Please wear sunglasses and leather (or fake leather) gloves to the event

Basically Jarmusch did a film to promote his band (just kidding)

>>170 Can't say this assistant comes off as a smart one.

172 Name: yep : 2014-02-06 12:44 ID:2sM5vKfp

He's very young I think and basically just a LW puppet

173 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-06 17:29 ID:bpU3FXSz

At least he had a different outfit for the race

LW is going to have a stroke though.

179 Name: Anonymous : 2014-02-07 15:02 ID:cyNRgJpY

I've read that he already unfavourited it, LOL.

180 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-07 15:16 ID:RGn7NOkg

>>179 He did, actually he unfavourited 4 tweet, two others were fans commenting on going to see/having seen Coriolanus and the last a tweet from the New Yorker. Who knows, maybe there was some hacking involved?

181 Name: Anonymous : 2014-02-07 15:32 ID:cyNRgJpY

I'm not on Twitter, so I'm not familiar with the specifics, but maybe he faved all those by accident in the first place.

182 Name: yep : 2014-02-07 15:35 ID:2sM5vKfp

Or problaby he just realizes anyone can see his favourites

183 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-07 15:37 ID:RGn7NOkg

>>181 Yes, at this point I start to think that's what might have happened, maybe he was scrolling and he favourited them without noticing. Too bad, now the girl who did it and whoever reblogged it, think he approves of that stuff.

184 Name: yep : 2014-02-07 15:47 ID:2sM5vKfp

*he's just realized

His supposed naiveness, I really don't know if there he is or he mokes us

185 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-07 15:53 ID:RGn7NOkg

>>184 if he had deleted only that tweet I might agree with you, but the others were harmless and that NewYorker article was about some US army documents and how the film Dr.Strangelove was right on the subject.

186 Name: yep : 2014-02-07 16:05 ID:2sM5vKfp

At least now we know why LW babysits him all the time

187 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-07 16:50 ID:RGn7NOkg

Well, look at the protector of women, taking pics while going to TheBox
http://instagram.com/p/j5mqMsr0wM/

Here is the debunk made by another fan
http://notsomolly.tumblr.com/post/75450011028/oh-my-gah-did-tom-hiddleston-go-to-the-box-that

I don't know The Box reputation, from what I read it's filthy, hence my sarcasm, but that fan debunking aside, my question is: would he really be dumb enough to take a selfie with fans while going to that place, well knowing it will end up on the internet?

188 Name: yep : 2014-02-07 17:14 ID:2sM5vKfp

No he's not so stupid, and she's right about background letters. There is bar there called the freedom bar, quite famous in soho. A freedom bar dj wrote this on 2 of february

"So last night the world and their mothers were out partying. Even Helena Bonham Carter was @freedombarsoho #EpicNight"

There is a instagram picture of him with HBC outside the donmar saturday night

So unfortunately it's not true. I like the idea of "my unicorn prince charming" in a filthy club

189 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-07 17:29 ID:RGn7NOkg

I remembered reading TH was seen with HBC on Saturday but I didn't remember if the date was correct.

And yes, that girl on tumblr was right about the sign and the time line.

In a way, because I found ELLEUK interview enjoyable too in a different way, but in this TimeOut interview he sounds a lot more direct and honest.

207 Name: yep : 2014-02-11 17:43 ID:2sM5vKfp

So nothing new

208 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-11 18:08 ID:61YAJI1Z

Well, he addressed the subject of the school more forcefully than before, he scolded his obsessive fans for burdening him with their own perceptions and fantasies and as a consequence, he gave up (that how it seemed to me) on trying to show his private self, because anyway his fans won't believe him or whatever.

Also, he said shit and they didn't edit it and he isn't that eager to be called for Star Wars! haha

But yeah, nothing really new.

209 Name: yep : 2014-02-11 23:08 ID:Y2OPM2xu

"Do the work, enjoy the work, take it seriously, don’t take yourself seriously and keep your head down. Nobody else needs to know anything more and - in a way - they really don’t want to" he was talking about private life? Really I don't get it

Sorry for double post, wi-fi problems

212 Name: Couch Potato : 2014-02-12 00:15 ID:ADiLWuR9

He is saying that he's decided to keep quiet about his private life and just do the job he's paid to do--act. Be serious about his work and enjoy his time off, while still being quiet and responsible. He doesn't think he should talk about his private life to the public, because it's none of the public's business, and they'll get upset no matter what he says--to put his words bluntly.

213 Name: yep : 2014-02-12 00:44 ID:2sM5vKfp

high quality scan of Time Out interview here
http://torrilla.tumblr.com/post/76395201123/tom-hiddleston-interview-time-out-magazine-issue

Yes, like >>212 said not only he is saying his private life it's his business, but also that even if he says something fans will make of it what they want so there's no point in being honest about it. In a matter of months he went from saying "there was nothing home to write about but he hope he would be able to when the time comes" to clearly stating he was single to saying "Nobody else needs to know anything more and - in a way - they really don’t want to".
I think he noticed that in the end it's better to link his fans to his work.

215 Name: yep : 2014-02-12 09:02 ID:2sM5vKfp

>>214 like: I told you "there was nothing home to write about" but no one believe me

Seems like Coriolanus didn't disappoint to go out without some bizarre fan behavior. I wonder how many of them will also stalk him to/in Toronto.

219 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-14 08:15 ID:Yep/dliN

You know, it's not the fact that she smeared her ticket that I find creepy, it's the fact that she felt the need to post a pic of it on the internet. I mean if you want a memento for yourself, original as it might be, fine, but making a show of it...creepy!

I have no doubt they'll do their best trying to spot him and stalk him. I read about fans planning to screen any pics of him surfacing the net to geotag his position?!

I hope he'll be too busy with the film and with planning High Rise to be found.

220 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-14 08:24 ID:Yep/dliN

I was reading Jim Beaver's last post, aside from revealing his role he wrote production has a long weekend off and I was wondering if after all TH might attend BAFTA.

Maybe he'll leave today for Toronto? In one of Jim Beaver's post, he wrote Jessica would be starting to work from Monday.
Unless he doesn't. He isn't listed among the attendees for BAFTA.

234 Name: Couch Potato : 2014-02-17 21:12 ID:ADiLWuR9

Tumblr is ridiculous with their self-righteousness. You can't control other people's actions, so why worry about them so much, and hound someone who doesn't do exactly as you say? I'm not encouraging obsessive, fangirl behavior by any means, but I'd say Tom is a big boy who can handle himself and should be expecting people taking pictures of him (not saying he likes it--it should just be expected, and I'm sure it is). Tumblr should cool it; aggressively blogging about it isn't going to change anything. It just makes people like me laugh about their condescending attitude.

235 Name: yep : 2014-02-18 10:56 ID:2sM5vKfp

They say Tom it's not fans property but then they treat him like a their possessions that needs to be defended. Insane

236 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-18 11:05 ID:tz6KSPR1

Expecting moderation by a fandom on tumblr is out of question, they make a drama or give extra meaning to the most insignificant things.

I'd say it's much worse a person who follows him out of the theatre to the tube than somebody asking for a photo, at least the second can be refused or replaced with an autograph. It seems like they don't realize he is a grown man, 33 years old, not some boy in need of their protection.

When nobody will post pics of him anymore for fear of an internet aggression, they'll probably complain about the lack of news.

237 Name: nicknack : 2014-02-18 14:16 ID:O8tbL8A6

I quite like the shit it stirs up in the fandom (I hate that word) when someone attempts to wade in and tries to educate everyone about fan etiquette. The amount of overreacting is so staggering you can only laugh at it all. I'm sure Tom is beyond giving a shit at this point (well, until Thor 3 - if he's in it, when he might need them all back for marketing purposes).
The best ones are the white-knights who come up with these charitable endeavors to make amends and convince Tom "we're not all like that". So far we have a fundraising appeal for the Donmar Warehouse, a blood drive (organised under the pretense that it was done for his birthday but is primarily because this particular fan is desperate for Tom's attention) and a letter of apology currently being drawn up by a small group of fans because some people stood in an airport arrival lounge to get a picture with Tom and they feel this has brought the fandom into disrepute.

238 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-18 14:27 ID:tz6KSPR1

>>237 a blood drive?! Tell me they are going to do it on OLLA release day! lol
Doesn't that goes again the TH commandment "I'm not the one that makes you do things"?

On the bright side, the more they do this the more ground they give him to start saying no.

239 Name: yep : 2014-02-18 16:17 ID:2sM5vKfp

Honestly, it's his fault too, he's just followed a fangirl who send him an apology twitter

240 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-18 17:00 ID:tz6KSPR1

That's from a few days ago, I have a feeling is another of his twitter blunders. But yeah, there was some encouragement on his part.

241 Name: yep : 2014-02-18 17:12 ID:2sM5vKfp

Blunders? Maybe he really needs help as his fans think

242 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-18 17:39 ID:tz6KSPR1

or a smartphone with a larger display

243 Name: yep : 2014-02-18 17:45 ID:2sM5vKfp

>>242 Yes Tom, throw away your iPhone and buy a samsung

244 Name: Couch Potato : 2014-02-18 19:27 ID:ADiLWuR9

Yeah, I get the feeling he Tweet stalks. It's really easy to follow someone you don't mean to on the iPhone app if you're just reading their tweet and/or scrolling past; I do it all the time. He can't unfollow her now, or there will be major drama. Poor guy.

245 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-18 21:01 ID:tz6KSPR1

He'll probably do it when he notices it, i.e. the next time he adds a new follower and suddenly realizes he added her.
Like he did for his favourites.

246 Name: anonsy : 2014-02-19 06:26 ID:BwV53iSd

Tom Hiddleston, Elle UK Man of the Year. He couldn't be there to accept the award, so they recorded a video acceptance. The general consensus seems to be that he's slightly inebriated. I'm also curious about that bandaid on his head...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Px4Xq6UDYLc

247 Name: anonymous : 2014-02-19 07:34 ID:k2hXT879

More than slightly I'd say.
I imagine this was recorded in Toronto? He had the band aid in the pics at the airport, pimple?

248 Name: anonsy : 2014-02-19 08:19 ID:BwV53iSd

It'd have to be a pretty serious pimple to require that big of a bandaid! I think it was recorded before he left London, probably not long after he acquired the mysterious forehead booboo, because the bandaid in the video is much larger than the bandaid he had on his head in the fan pictures from the Toronto airport. Maybe on the last night of Coriolanus someone decided to actually hit him during the fight scenes.

Jeez, can't Elle ever just come out and say anything? We have to have a teaser about the bandaid, then probably like a dozen tweets about it over the course of the next couple weeks, and then they'll tell us to "stay tuned until the April issue of Elle UK for the full exclusive story!" Then everyone will speculate that the bandaid is actually hiding his secret girlfriend (or that the bandaid IS his secret girlfriend!), and they'll make "Tom's Bandaid" twitter accounts, and then we'll wait all the way until April only to find out that he like... I don't know, left his kitchen cabinet open and walked into the door or something totally not even that exciting.
