Loki and the 9 best Tom Hiddleston roles ranked from worst to best

3. Hank Williams in I Saw the Light

Who would’ve thought our British charmer, Tom Hiddleston, could don the cowboy hat and give us some good ol’ country vibes? He did do just that and more in I Saw the Light. Playing the legendary Hank Williams, Hiddleston sang, played, and wooed us into the world of country music with an authenticity that made us do a double take to make sure it was in fact him.

What makes this performance stand out is the dedication Hiddleston brought to the table. It’s no easy feat to step into the shoes of such an iconic figure, but Hiddleston went the extra mile by actually learning to play Williams’ songs. This wasn’t just an impersonation – it was a full-on transformation.

2. Jonathan Pine in The Night Manager

If you’ve ever wondered how to mix suave sophistication with nail-biting suspense, then look no further than Tom Hiddleston’s portrayal of Jonathan Pine in The Night Manager.

Slipping into the shoes of Pine, he dove right into the world of espionage, smoothly maneuvering through luxury hotels and dangerous liaisons. With each episode, he made us clutch our popcorn bowls a bit tighter as we rode the rollercoaster of Pine’s life in the shadowy underworld of arms dealing.

When Tom Hiddleston’s name pops up in a series, you know you’re in for a treat, so it’s no surprise that this stunning performance nabbed him a Golden Globe. Between his charismatic presence, those oh-so-expressive eyes that told tales of intrigue, and the depth he brought to Pine’s character, it’s clear why this role is often hailed as one of his finest.
