Night Manager star Tom Hiddleston has admitted he would be thrilled to join the cast of Celebrity Traitors or Strictly Come Dancing, saying he’s a self-confessed fan of both shows.<\/p>\n

The 44-year-old British actor is best known for playing Loki in Marvel’s Thor, and more recently as the star of the BBC’s The Night Manager. <\/a><\/p>\n

As reported by The Sun newspaper, when asked if he would consider joining Strictly or Traitors, Tom enthusiastically responded: “Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. I’m a massive, massive fan of both.” For the latest TV and showbiz gossip <\/i>sign up to our newsletter<\/u><\/i><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

An insider told the publication: “It is frankly the ultimate decision. Of course, Tom’s schedule is more likely to allow him to film The Traitors for a month in Scotland than commit to Strictly’s intense four months, but what an absolute gift to his BBC<\/a> bosses to hear their leading man is up for both.”<\/p>\n

In previous discussions about The Traitors, Tom revealed he would prefer to play a faithful – the group responsible for identifying the traitors among them – as it would allow him to “play detective” and maintain a “clean” conscience.<\/p>\n

During a stint on BBC Radio 2, he enthused: “I mean the celebrity one would be amazing.<\/p>\n

“I think the whole show, the format is just the most ingenious thing, isn’t it? It’s completely compulsive. Maybe the best television I’ve ever seen.”<\/p>\n

Tom concluded: “I’d like to be a faithful because then you can play detective, right?”.<\/p>\n

“And you know that your conscience is clean and your heart is pure, and you’re just watching and trying to figure people out.<\/p>\n

“‘If you’re a traitor it’s more of an acting exercise, right? It’s a game, you have to keep deceiving and cloaking and dissembling and basically lying to people.<\/p>\n

“It would be interesting though. I don’t know, I think being a faithful would be more of a curiosity scratcher somehow.”<\/p>\n

According to The Sun, Tom also discussed watching The Celebrity Traitors – which was broadcast in Britain during the autumn – at a recent question-and-answer event in New York, where he likened the programme’s finale to the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

He remarked: “There was a version of it with celebrities in the UK in the autumn – it was massive. I mean, this extraordinary thing, it united the entire nation.<\/p>\n

“I think 11 million people, which is a lot in the UK, watched the finale live. It was like a kind of a sporting event, like a World Cup final or a Super Bowl or something.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
