Avengers


Tom Hiddleston has had an excellent year, what with roles in "Thor," "Midnight in Paris" and "War Horse." But believe it or not, the man who can count Kenneth Branagh, Woody Allen and Steven Spielberg among the directors he's worked with might be on the verge of an even bigger 2012, thanks to his status as the lead bad guy in "Marvel's The Avengers."


Hiddleston once again plays Loki in the film, and as the central force of villainy against a crew of Marvel's greatest superheroes, you know it's a given that the British actor will go toe-to-toe against the likes of Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr.


It's the latter actor that Hiddleston seems most excited about engaging in fisticuffs, as the actor gushed about his "Avengers" fight scene against RDJ in a new interview with NY Daily News.


"I did get to throw Tony Stark [Iron Man's alter ego] through a window — which you can see in trailers — all I can tell you is he deserved it," said Hiddleston. "He's got a sharp tongue, that Tony Stark."


"I had the privilege of throwing Robert Downey Jr. out of a window. So, it's pinch-me moments all the way," he added.
