A NEW INTERVIEW WITH TOM HIDDLESTON WAS JUST RELEASED AND HE’S QUOTED AS SAYING:
“You know– Like with most franchises, deaths are inevitable. I mean it– It’s a bummer, but at the end of the day it’s– It really is not my decision. So while I– I found the decision to turn Loki into an anthropomorphic ferret to be… Strange? It really isn’t– Clearly it’s got some greater significance than I can parse. Regardless, Loki being– I mean, you know, not a human anymore, does mean– Well it means I am no longer in the franchise. Also it means he’s gay now, which is a good move on Marvel’s part in my opinion. I’m just afraid of the ferret part overshadowing the LGBT content.”
