Tom Hiddleston To Star In Legendary’s ‘Skull Island’!

Briefly: Legendary’s Skull Island appears to be moving along nicely, and one of Hollywood’s hottest actors has just signed up to star: Loki himself, Tom Hiddleston. The film was originally announced back at SDCC, and at that time it was revealed that Godzilla screenwriter Max Borenstein would draft the screenplay.

Legendary has also announced that The Kings of Summer director Jordan Vogt-Roberts will direct the film (he’s also attached to direct the Metal Gear Solid film… meaning that it probably won’t be made forever, which may be a good thing).

Hiddleston will also star in Legendary / Guillermo Del Toro’s Crimson Peak (which looks phenomenal, by the way), so we better get used to seeing his face (because we weren’t already).

Details are scarce on Skull Island, but the studio states that ‘previous works have touched on the island, but staying on and exploring this mysterious and dangerous place offers Legendary the opportunity to take audiences deeper inside this rich world with a style and scope that parallels other Legendary productions’

Excited? The film will hit theatres on November 4th, 2016.
