Watch Tom Hiddleston React to His Marvel Audition Tape to Play Thor on THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JIMMY FALLON

Tom Hiddleston is everyone’s favorite bad brother. He is the quintessential Loki, and everyone was happy that he was revived in the timeline in Avengers: Endgame, and will live to create more havoc in his upcoming Disney+ series, Loki.

But before he was Loki, he actually auditioned to be Thor. Many fans already knew that and have seen pictures and GIFs of the actor’s audition, but while he was on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this week, Fallon said friends of his from Marvel Studios sent over the audition tape, and he shared it with the star and the audience. Check it out:

Tom Hiddleston gets embarrassed by unreleased footage of him auditioning for the part of Thor, and Jimmy tests his ability to cry on command like he does daily for his Broadway show, Betrayal.

It’s not a terrible audition, but now that we all have Chris Hemsworth as the Thor we know and love, it does feel a little silly. Hiddleston feels it too, as he thanks the audience for kindly cheering for him, but he takes it in stride. He knows that everything happened for the right reasons, and he got the exact right role for him.

What do you think of Hiddleston’s audition?
