'Thor 2: The Dark World's' Tom 'Loki' Hiddleston on Comedy Central

Thor 2: The Dark World is just one week away from its U.S. release but Loki fans can catch a glimpse of the character this Tuesday on Comedy Central. Tom Hiddleston will reprise his role for the cable channel, before the film's American debut.

Loki is coming to Comedy Central. Tom Hiddleston will reprise his role in what looks like a hilarious parody of the AT&T "It's Not Complicated" commerical. In a brief TV teaser, Loki fills in SNL's Beck Bennett, with a round table group of adorable children. The Avengers villain announces himself as "Loki of Asgard," only to be out done by "Diana of New Jersey." The short clip ends with a voice over that promises us more, this upcoming Tuesday at 8:00 p.m.

It's not likely that Loki is getting his own CC spin-off, in which he becomes the new teacher of a rambunctious gang of fourth graders. Although, that would be a great show. What's most likely is that the night's lineup will be full of Thor teasing bumpers.

The new film is already receiving great reviews overseas. One praise, in particular, is for the film's more comedic moments. Director Alan Taylor recently spoke with reporters at the London press junket about Dark World's lighter moments:

"Um, yeah, I’m, I’m so grateful to hear that that’s what’s coming back from the audience as they start to see the film for the first time. I think I went into it, and I thought my first task was to darken the world and deepen it and dirty it up a little bit. Um, I sort of felt like that was my mandate going in. And then as we started the process, I realized, 'Oops. Um, if we’re gonna darken it, if we’re gonna deepen it…we’d better make darn sure that it’s balanced on the other side.' Because the, you know, the key to the Marvel universe and the Marvel language that I was being assaulted by while I was making this movie--‘cause Avengers came out while we were starting it, and Iron Man 3 came out while we were finishing it--was you are screwed if you don’t also keep it funny and light on its feet at the same time. So it’s, it’s called The Dark World, and there’s certainly dark currents in it, um, but, yeah, the humor was critical."
