AceShowbiz - Tom Hiddleston has given more clues about his upcoming movie "Thor: Ragnarok". During a press meeting for "Kong: Skull Island", Nikki Novak from Fandango reached Hiddleston to ask some questions about the "Thor" threequel. The Loki depicter teased the beginning of "Thor: Ragnarok" as well as promised the funnier version of god of thunder Thor, who is portrayed by Chris Hemsworth.
"At the end of 'The Dark World', Loki is on the throne," said Hiddleston to Fandango's Nikki Novak, alluding to the second "Thor" movie "Thor: The Dark World". "At the beginning of 'Ragnarok', Thor has a few questions and Loki is endearingly enigmatic about providing answers," he added.

Hiddleston later shared his thoughts about director Taika Waititi and his on-screen brother Hemsworth. "Taika Waititi is such a spirited, hilarious individual, and he and Chris [Hemsworth] became very fast friends," said Hiddleston. "And what was great for me was to see their friendship kind of blossom and they brought out the best in each other and started making stuff up."
Waititi is known for his comedic works such as "What We Do in the Shadows" and "Hunt for the Wilderpeople". With Watiti directing "Thor: Ragnarok", the movie will seemingly be packed with comical tone. Hiddleston gave an intriguing clue about Thor's character in the threequeI. He suggested that Hemsworth's Thor would be very funny.
"I can confidently say this will be the funniest depiction of the character of Thor that you've ever seen," Hiddleston said. "I personally have known for almost 10 years that Chris Hemsworth is hilarious. I think this go-round will be his chance," he added.
In the upcoming movie, Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer and finds himself in a race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok-the destruction of his homeworld and the end of Asgardian civilization-at the hands of an all-powerful new threat, the ruthless Hela. But first he must survive a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits him against his former ally and fellow Avenger-the Incredible Hulk!
Other cast members include Mark Ruffalo as Hulk and Cate Blanchett as mysterious villain Hela. Jeff Goldblum is portraying eccentric Grandmaster and Tessa Thompson is featured as classic heroine Valkyrie. It has been confirmed that Benedict Cumberbatch will make a cameo as Doctor Strange.
"Thor: Ragnarok" is set to be released in the U.S. on November 3.
