Tom Hiddleston of The Avengers Cast in New Hank Bio-Pic

Tom Hiddleston has elected to take on a very different character in the fall, when he starts filming a new Hank Williams bio-pic I Saw the Light.

This will be movie #4 to center around Hank, but the first since 1964's Your Cheatin' Heart, which starred George Hamilton. Hiddleston will reportedly do his own singing in the film, which is based on a biography by Colin Escott and is being written and directed by Marc Abraham.
