The 8 Movies You Know Tom Hiddleston From

Updated on 6/25/2016 at 5:30 PM

Tom Hiddleston is the actor everyone's talking about right now, and it's not because of his new TV series on AMC, or the movie he's working on. It's because he's been making multiple appearances on Taylor Swift's arm since her breakup with Calvin Harris. If the sexy Brit looks familiar to you, but you can't quite put your finger on all the movies you've seen him in, we can helpfully point out which films you've seen "that guy" in.

Midnight in Paris (2011)

Tom Hiddleston made a big impact in this Woody Allen fantasy drama as the one and only writer F. Scott Fitzgerald, with 1920s flair, hair, and cocktail-swilling on display.

Thor (2011)

Hiddleston's big breakout role is Loki in the Avengers franchise, the god of mischief and brother to Chris Hemsworth's Thor. This was Hiddleston's Avengers debut, and it planted the seed for Loki to take a bigger role in the series, but it wouldn't be until his next movie in the franchise that audiences really started to take note of the actor.

War Horse (2011)

2011 continued to be a huge year for Hiddleston; at the end of the year, he had a small but impactful role in the Steven Spielberg epic War Horse.

The Deep Blue Sea (2011)

Hiddleston worked on his leading man chops in the award-magnet drama The Deep Blue Sea opposite Rachel Weisz.

The Avengers (2012)

Thor's adopted brother made a comeback in the first Avengers film as the main villain (and victim of the Hulk's epic smash). This is Hiddleston's biggest movie commercially, and probably the reason most people recognize him.

Crimson Peak (2015)

Hiddleston brought his sharp cheekbones and mystery to Guillermo del Toro's gothic thriller last year.

I Saw the Light (2015)

The star got to show off his pipes as well as his acting chops when he played Hank Williams in the country star's biopic.

The Night Manager (2016)

It's not a movie, of course, but Hiddleston made a splash on the small screen in this Spring's miniseries on AMC.
