Tom Hiddleston & Loki Got Cut From Avengers 2 (Video)

Back when Idris Elba let it slip he had a role in Avengers 2, Elba also made mention of Tom Hiddleston.

However, for those that have seen the movie, Loki didn’t appear.

Now director Joss Whedon explains why.

“Tom is not in the movie. Idris misspoke. Twice [laughs]. We did shoot something, and it didn’t play. The movie has so much. It’s so filled, and we didn’t want to feel over stuffed. I really wanted to have Loki in it, but I understood the decision that it was just ‘okay, now there are too many voices in the chorus.'”

Whedon did previously state the The Avengers 2 Blu-Ray would contain a lot of deleted scenes, so perhaps we’ll see the Loki scene there.
