'Avengers 2: Age of Ultron' Release Date, Trailer & Cast Updates: Idris Elba Confirms Scene With Tom Hiddleston

Did Idris Elba just confirm the appearance of Tom Hiddleston AKA Loki in the "Avengers" sequel, "Avengers: Age of Ultron?"

Elba, who brings to life Heimdall, may have just dropped a major film casting spoiler, reports The Telegraph.

"I'm in Avengers," revealed the actor. "And I'm doing a scene with Chris Hemsworth [Thor] and Tom Hiddleston [Loki], and they're like, [whispers] - 'Aren't you [meant to be] in Ibiza?'"

Elba currently resides in Ibiza, off the coast of Spain, as a resident DJ at Ibiza Rocks but from the massive info leak he may have just provided, the actor/DJ was able to squeeze in some time to be part of production which ended in August.

Neither Heimdall or Loki have been part of press materials and releases for the film but fellow "Thor" actor Chris Hemsworth was already confirmed to be returning to the sequel as Thor.

E! Online notes that news of the Hiddleston appearance in the film has "delighted scores of fans, especially those of Hiddleston, whose popular character had spurred an online petition for a standalone Loki movie."

During the interview, Elba also shared an experience during filming of "Thor: The Dark World."

"I'd just done eight months in South Africa. I came to England and the day I came back I had to do reshoots on Thor 2," said the actor. "I was like, 'This is torture, man. I don't want to do this.' My agent said, 'You have to, it's part of the deal.'"

"They had to put me in harness in this green-screen studio," said the 42-year-old. He further added, "And in between takes, I was stuck there, fake hair stuck on to my head with glue, this f--king helmet, while they reset. And I'm thinking, 'Twenty-four hours ago, I was Mandela.' When I walked into the set, the extras called me Madiba"

"Then there I was, in this stupid harness, with this wig and this sword and these contact lenses. It ripped my heart out," recalled Elba.

The official teaser trailer of Marvel's "Avengers: Age of Ultron" was released over the weekend, after a massive leak, but neither Hiddleston or Elba appeared on the clip.

The "Age of Ultron" stars Robert Downey Jr., Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L. Jackson, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen and James Spader as Ultron the villain.

Catch the film when it drops into theaters May 1, 2015.
