‘Loki and Daredevil would have a fun match-up!' Tom Hiddleston eyes Marvel collab with Charlie Cox
Tom Hiddleston wants to work with Charlie Cox in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
The 44-year-old actor has portrayed Loki since 2011's Thor and is set to return as the God of Mischief in Avengers: Doomsday, and Hiddleston has now revealed he wants to join forces with the Daredevil: Born Again star, 42, in a future MCU project.
When Buzzfeed Celeb asked Hiddleston which Marvel actor he'd most like to collaborate with in the superhero franchise, he said: 'I've worked with a lot of them now, and that's been a great joy. It's hard to pick one, because they're all such extraordinary actors.
'I'd like to work with Daredevil. Charlie Cox is a dear friend of mine. I think Loki and Daredevil would have a fun match-up.
'Charlie and I were in a play together on Broadway on Halloween, and I dressed up as Daredevil and he dressed up as Loki. It was really fun!'
As well as Hiddleston's Loki, Avengers: Doomsday will see the return of Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, Pedro Pascal as Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as The Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as The Human Torch and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as The Thing.
The 2026 blockbuster will introduce former Iron Man star Robert Downey Jr. as Marvel's new big bad, Doctor Doom.
While Avengers: Doomsday will include swathes of fan-favourite characters, Cox previously insisted he wouldn't appear in the film.
During Marvel's livestream for Avengers: Doomsday in March, the studio revealed returning cast members by showing chairs with their names on the back, though Cox's name did not appear.
Following Cox's absence from the announcement livestream, he told Screen Rant: 'It's not there, is it?
'Listen, the way that information gets to us is the same way that it gets to everyone else normally. At least historically, that's been the case.
'Someone sent me the link. I looked for my name. It's not there. So, maybe one day.'
Before the livestream, it had been theorised that the Devil of Hell's Kitchen would be included in Avengers: Doomsday, with speculation growing around Christmas last year when Cox was spotted working out at DFRNT Health and Fitness in Western Australia.
The gym owners had posted an image of Cox and his wife Sam in the health club with the caption: 'Charlie is currently training for his role in the upcoming Avengers movie', though the actor later revealed he had been training for the second season of Daredevil: Born Again - not for the blockbuster.
The actor called his bosses to insist he didn't tell anyone he would be suiting up as Daredevil in Avengers: Doomsday, and admitted he felt 'terrible' when the speculation began.
Cox told Entertainment Weekly: 'I was there for Christmas with my family. And on the last day, they asked if they could take a picture with me, which we did.
'I had said to them, 'I'm getting ready to play Daredevil', because I am! I'm getting ready to play Daredevil in season two of Daredevil: Born Again.
'Sometimes people who aren't really in the [entertainment] world, they don't understand the terminology or whatever, but for some reason they posted that and they put, 'Getting ready for his role in the Avengers', which is not true.
'I felt terrible. I had to call my bosses and say, 'I didn't say that,' obviously. Why would I say that? Why would I make something like that up?'

Amid the frustration at Oakmont, one golfer and his caddie wife are having the time of their lives
It must surely be one of the best and most joyous moments of this year's US Open: Philip Barbaree is pinching himself in disbelief after making the cut at the brutally tough Oakmont Country Club. It's a dream that's now a reality for a young American golfer who just four years ago was still working at his father's steakhouse. But it's also a dream that may never have happened had life events taken a different path. Oakmont is a notoriously challenging course, a venue that has already seen big-name players like defending champion Bryson DeChambeau fail to make it through to the last two rounds. Many players have been throwing clubs, slamming them in frustration, cursing the brutal course. But not Philip Barbaree, whose journey is both remarkable and inspiring and the best part about it is that the 27-year-old from Louisiana – who came through final qualifying in Florida – gets to share his success with the love of his life: His wife, best friend, and caddie Chloe who he married earlier this year. 'She's been caddying for about a year now on the bag, and it's been awesome. At first it started as, will you just caddie for me for a couple days, I don't have a caddie? And then I started playing well, and then I pretty much made her stick around. I forced her to stick around. She actually enjoys it, but it's great,' Barbaree told CNN Sports. 'I don't like lot of information out there. I'll start thinking way too much. If I start talking it through with a caddie, then sometimes I just get in my own head. For me just to do my own thing and have her there for support and to give me good words whenever I need it or just to have some peace and comfort, it's been really nice. A really good team,' he added. Chloe's own journey is quite remarkable too. She's not a golfer and she only fully embraced the sport when she started out on Philip's bag. It's something she feels works in the couple's favor. 'He thinks that I bring a different perspective since I don't have a golf background, I don't play golf, so I see things that maybe others wouldn't see and point it out to him, and it just works,' she said. 'I love it. I always tell him I'm honored that he chooses me as his caddie because I know that's a big role to fill.' 'I think it just works because I'm there for moral support, whatever he needs. I'm not pushy. I don't know all the facts, so I'm there for moral support. Usually, the advice I give him is to not overthink and be confident because I know that he knows what he's doing, and when he's confident, he plays the best. So, I just say, be confident in your decisions. You know you best. Just play your own game and have fun,' Chloe added. Ten years ago, Barbaree won the US Junior Amateur event but not too much has gone right since until this week in the ultra-competitive world of professional golf. Philip – who currently plays on the PGA Tour Americas circuit – is competing in just his second US Open and his first since missing the cut at the 2018 tournament, which is why making a nervy 5-footer for par at his last hole early on Saturday to make the cut for the weekend meant the world to him. When play was suspended late on Friday due to a downpour of rain, Barbaree was one of 13 players who had to return early the next morning to complete some unfinished business. After a bogey on his first hole of the day, he knew what had to be done on the last after a less than perfect night's sleep. 'A lot of pent-up emotion and stress from sleeping last night or not sleeping last night, just knowing that I pretty much had to come out and make par on one of the hardest holes on the course,' he told CNN Sports. 'And then to actually do it, that's what you practice for, that's what you care about. To be able to pull off a shot like that when it matters, and then with her on the bag, it's special.' And speaking of that bag, Chloe said her spouse tries to make it as a light as possible for her. 'Still feels heavy to me but I really enjoy it. I like getting to be by his side and there for him if he needs a pep talk or pick me up whatever. It's just a really cool experience together and to get to travel together so he doesn't have to be alone is so cool,' she said. The last couple of days have proved to be rollercoaster of emotions for a young golfer who really has been living the dream. He was last to make the cut and then he had the first tee time of Saturday's third round. And there's more. He and Chloe basically had the course to themselves for a while as the former Louisiana State University standout was playing solo. And then came a moment to savor. A moment of magic came when Barbaree drained a 36-footer for eagle as he went on to shoot a third-round 75, ending up at 12-over par for the tournament going into Sunday's final round. Philip credits Chloe for playing such a key role in helping to turn his career around. The couple share a special bond, with Barbaree paying a moving tribute to his wife just last month on his Instagram account to celebrate their 1-year engagement anniversary. A post shared by PHILIP BARBAREE JR (@philipbarbareegolf) In what he called a wife appreciation post following a recent event, Philip thanked his wife for caddying for him for 33 holes in one day at 9,400 feet above sea level – no easy task. Before meeting Chloe, life was far from straightforward for Philip Barbaree as a golfer. The challenging times would come and at one point he was even left questioning his future in the sport. 'Professional golf is tough. It's very, very hard. I think having the right people around you is big and I got a great family, a great wife and her family. You know when she started caddying, it was the best because that means I don't have to travel to tournaments alone. I don't have to do all these things by myself, which is fine, but you know it's not the same as having your wife there,' Philip reflected. 'There were some down periods. Multiple times where, thinking do I want to keep playing? Do I want to keep doing this? But I love golf so much that it was just too hard to give up. And so, to see kind of the hard work pay off and some of the things come into form, it means so much.' However it all plays out across this weekend, Philip Barbaree will likely never forget what he's achieved here at Oakmont knowing full well it has the potential to be truly life changing. And as for that steakhouse experience back in 2021? 'Oakmont is just barely harder than my experience as a busboy at my dad's steakhouse. In two short days I got sick, I cut my finger wide open, and it just wasn't a whole lot of fun. So, I knew I needed to get back out on the course,' he said.
