Sure, Tom Hiddleston is a fun villain, but he's in kind of the same position as Will Smith was when he played the Genie in Aladdin.
Can such an iconic performance be redone?

Tom Hiddleston Is In Talks To Play Hades For The Live-Action 'Hercules'
Well, there's more live action remakes coming out.
Disney
Either you read that sentence and rolled your eyes so far back into your head that now you're blind, or you read it and started frothing violently at the mouth in excitement.
There's no in-between.
It seems 'Hercules' will be the next to get the live-action treatment.
Disney
Do you remember that plucky '90s movie about the Greek hero?
Unlike the ancient story, the cartoon had a lot less family murder and a lot more gospel music.
Psh, thanks a lot, Disney.
One of the best parts was Hades, voiced by James Woods.
Disney
He was quick, he was fun but he never strayed away from being threatening.
Well, rumors have been floating around that Tom Hiddleston, who is known for playing the trickster Loki, might get the role.
It kind of makes sense, if you think about it.
Marvel
Both Loki and Hades are from ancient mythologies and both the characters in their movies are sillier versions of their ancient counterparts. Who knows?
Maybe Hades will finally get a cool villain song.
