Hiddleston, the London-born Thor star, will return to the Donmar for the first time since 2008 to play the lead in a modern-day interpretation of Coriolanus, Shakespeare’s tragedy, which Rourke will direct herself. Mark Gatiss, the Sherlock actor, plays Menenius.
Hiddleston said: “The fate of Coriolanus dramatizes the conflict in the heart of every public figure: the war between integrity and popularity. It’s a play about soldiers, politicians and the people. It’s a play for our time; for any time.”
