Tom Hiddleston has carved a successful career for himself as an actor in Hollywood. His role as Loki in the MCU has become his most recognizable role, catapulting him to global fame and appreciation.
He has also starred in many other memorable and acclaimed projects such as Midnight in Paris, War Horse, The Deep Blue Sea, Only Lovers Left Alive, High-Rise, Kong: Skull Island, and The Essex Serpent. He is also adored by fans for his devilishly handsome looks, charismatic personality, and well-speaking demeanor.
Although the MCU is no stranger to charismatic and good-looking actors, it seems another Marvel actor from the Fox X-Men (who is usually mistaken for the actor) universe is giving tough competition to Hiddleston. The actor has even gone on to challenge Huddleston’s desirability and appeal to fans.
Michael Fassbender Claims that He is Better-Looking Than Tom Hiddleston
Actors Tom Hiddleston and Michael Fassbender have been consistently mistaken for each other by fans throughout their acting careers. When asked about this situation, Fassbender had a very interesting and highly debatable answer for fans to ponder. He told Daily Telegraph,
“Happens all the time. I can see the similarities, but I’m better looking than him [laughs]. Other than that, yes. I like Tom.”
Both Fassbender and Hiddleston are charming individuals who have captivated audiences with their stellar performances in their acting careers. Regarding Fassbender’s rather funny comment, he acknowledges the similarities between him and Hiddleston while also adding a sarcastic punchline that is sure to create discourse among fans of both actors.
Tom Hiddleston Has Also Hilariously Addressed The Mix-Up With Michael Fassbender
Tom Hiddleston also addressed the mix-up among fans between him and Michael Fassbender. In a hilarious video in Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show (on YouTube)where celebrities talked about their pet peeves, Hiddleston jokingly addressed how he’s not happy signing autographs for Fassbender. He said,
“I don’t mind it when people ask me for my autograph, but I hate it when people ask me for Michael Fassbender’s autography. I’m not him okay. I am Tom Hiddleston and (putting up a photo of Fassbender), this is Michael Fassbender I’m sorry!”
Hiddleston is currently set to return as The God of Mischief, Loki in Loki season 2, premiering on Disney+ on October 5, 2023.
