A STROKE OF CHUCK

Tom becomes the Life of the party

- By Ella Walker

ACTORS Tom Hiddleston, Chiwetel Ejiofor and director Mike Flanagan, share the joy to be found in the Stephen King adaptation The Life of Chuck.

It's well documented that Tom Hiddleston is a man who likes to dance. A decade ago the actor showcased his moves on Alan Carr's Chatty Man (it was a whole thing, Google it) and in January he shared his signature dance move on Graham Norton's chat show (he called it 'Just keep swimming').

In his latest role though, as the titular character in The Life Of Chuck, he received “a fast-track course in classical dance”.

Directed by Mike Flanagan the American horror filmmaker known for The Haunting of Hill House and Doctor Sleep and based on the novella by Stephen King (Carrie, The Shining), it features a “free and spontaneous” dance sequence, in which Hiddleston, 44, fully lets loose.
