Friday, April 15, 2016 I chatted with Tom Hiddleston on the red carpet for his at Tribeca Film Festival (TFF) premiere of “The Night Manager.” The much anticipated six-part TV miniseries will air on AMC on April 19. It is based on the book by John le Carré (“Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy”).
When I asked Hiddleston if the worst part of his job is posing for the cameras, he laughed. Then, he looked down, thought about the question for a minute and said, “There are worse things.” Then the sexy actor grinned.
There was an awkward moment after the actor asked the photographers to wait a moment while he tucked in his shirt. One of the photo journalists ignored his request. The classy Hiddleston was understandably shaken. He walked over to the photographer and said, “Why would you do that when I asked you not to?” The cameraman, who’d obviously seized the moment in hopes of landing his “money shot,” was shameless.
The gorgeous actor quickly regrouped, returned to his step-and-repeat task. He posed with beautiful and talented “The Night Manager” director Susanne Bier. Then they had a whisper and a laugh before heading into the School of Visual Arts screening on 23rd Street.
The much-adored Hiddleston is also starring in the must-see “High Rise.” For ticket information visit the movie website.
