You wait for ages for a bit of Thunder God news, and then you get the cast picks for both Thor and his villainous brother in a matter of days.

According to Deadline Hollywood Daily, the part of Loki has gone to Tom Hiddleston, an award-winning British actor and Royal Academy Of Dramatic Arts (RADA) graduate. He played Winston Churchill's son in HBO's "The Gathering Storm" and has starred in "Ivanov" opposite Branagh on the London stage and also starred with him in the BBC miniseries "Wallander."

Hiddleston was rumored for the role after Branagh was heard praising the actor recently..guess some rumors come through after all!
