Tom Hiddleston: Why Loki Dismisses Doctor Strange, But Not Hela!

Tom Hiddleston discusses why Loki is intrigued by Hela but not by Doctor Strange!

The Doctor Strange post-credits scene made it clear that the Sorcerer Supreme is unhappy that Thor brought Loki to Earth because he was a potential threat. But what does the God of Mischief think of Dr. Strange?

The good news is that Tom Hiddleston has provided an answer. While speaking to IGN during his recent press tour for Kong: Skull Island, the British actor revealed that his character isn’t overly impressed with Benedict Cumberbatch's superhero in Thor: Ragnarok:

I think he probably dismisses Strange, you know. Yes, his sorcery is very impressive, but Loki's been doing that for century – so who cares?

However, Loki won't take Cate Blanchett's Hela lightly in the upcoming Taika Waititi flick:

But Hela is a different beast and full of surprises and actually might have been someone with whom he actually got along. But the circumstances have changed.

During the interview, the 36-year-old actor also said that as Thor: Ragnarok opens, Loki will not be in the mood to help Chris Hemsworth's character find Odin, who is their father. However, when Hela arrives, he’ll have no option other than to reunite with his adoptive brother in the fight to save Asgard. According to Hiddleston:

Cate Blanchett, it's no secret, is playing the goddess of death who brings destruction in her wake. It's the kind of destruction that both Thor and Loki have never seen, on a scale of terror they've never ever seen before. So, they fall back on their brotherhood, fractured though it is, to see what they can do to stop her.

Thor: Ragnarok rolls into theaters on November 3, 2017.
