Question:
@twhiddleston @SamuelLJackson What was your biggest challenge in playing Loki and Fury in the #Avengers ?

The biggest challenge was magnifying his menace without losing touch of his emotional truth. Keeping his chaos honest!

Question:
@SamuelLJackson Will we get to see any background on Fury?

Answer:
not yet.

Question:
For JW: what about the Spiderman cameo in #Avengers?

Question:
@SamuelLJackson did the eyepatch throw off your depth perception?

Answer:
not at all, there was a new memory factor involved.

Question:
@twhiddleston You've said that in you listened to Prodigy for Loki. What did you listen to this time to get rdy for the #Avengers?

Answer:
"Archangel", by a band called Burial. And not a little of Hans Zimmer's soundtrack compositions.
In all honesty, yes. Sometimes you wake up feeling warm and sunny, but the scene requires hatefulness and spite.

Question:
@twhiddleston what kind of relationship do you have with other actors on the set of "The Avengers"?

Answer:
Nothing but love... It wasn't called Group Hug for nothing!

You have to reach deeper. And stay aware of the fact that the emotions are true, but they're not mine.
