Tom Hiddleston wowed the audience on The Graham Norton Show on Friday evening as he demonstrated his signature dance move. The actor, 43, appeared on the show to discuss his role as Benedick in Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.
Hiddleston revealed that the cast begins rehearsals each morning with a 'dance hour', which he described as 'very useful for working off the mince pies'. He said the play is 'full of dancing' and that the party scenes are 'the sort of party that you recognise', like a wedding or birthday celebration.
When asked about his signature move, Hiddleston replied, 'My signature move is just keep swimming.' He then stood up from the red sofa, crouched down, and moved his arms from left to right while wiggling his hips, prompting applause from the audience and fellow guests, including Brie Larson and Billy Porter.
Hiddleston is currently starring in Much Ado About Nothing at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London, part of a Shakespeare season by The Jamie Lloyd Company. He attended the opening night of The Tempest at the same theatre last month, where Sigourney Weaver made her West End debut as Prospero.
