‘Thor: Ragnarok' Update: Tom Hiddleston Says Loki Won't Be Impressed With Doctor Strange, He's Been Doing Magic For Centuries

It looks like not everyone is impressed with Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange character as Tom Hiddleston said his character Loki won't be awed at what the Sorcerer Supreme can do. The magic that Strange can do, Loki has been doing for centuries already.

In an interview with IGN about Hiddleston's upcoming movie "Kong: Skull Island," they talked briefly about his other film, "Thor." Hiddleston was asked what he thinks Loki feels about the new characters, Strange and the villain Hela, to be played by Cate Blanchett.

Hiddleston said that he thinks Loki will just dismiss Strange. Though the Sorcerer Supreme has a "very impressive" magic, the god of mischief has been doing and practicing magic for centuries already, "so who cares."

Cooper Hood of Screen Rant adds that Loki has been studying magic for all his life, compared to Strange who has only been doing it for years. Magic was taught to the god of mischief by their mother.

Hood adds it's not surprising that Loki won't be impressed with Strange. But even if he is, his "well-known arrogance" will prevent him from acknowledging the Doctor and his abilities.

As for Hela, Hiddleston said in the interview that she is full of surprises. Loki and the Asgardian goddess could have "gotten along" at one time. But the circumstances that they find themselves in the movie prevent that from happening.

Hood said that the circumstances that Hiddleston mentions could be the part where Loki and Chris Hemsworth's Thor team up to take down Hela. As for Strange, it's likely he won't have much of a role in the latest "Thor" movie, considering there are already a lot of plots in the movie.

Aside from Hela and Loki, Thor also has to deal with the Mark Ruffalo's Hulk. Without a trailer, it's really hard, for now, to grasp how the story will unravel. Check out the promo clip that features Thor discussing what he was doing during the events of "Captain America: Civil War."
