Loki + Game of Thrones = Shakespeare?
Oh, sure, Joss Whedon brought Shakespeare to nerddom by making it all hip and modern, but Skyfall director Sam Mendes has a more straightforward approach with The Hollow Crown that seems to me likely to work just as well: cast Tom Hiddleston and make it violent as shit. Also Patrick Stewart, Ben Whishaw, John Hurt and Jeremy Irons.
Art thou sold? The Hollow Crown comes to VOD and DVD on Aug. 27th.
