Hello fellow Hiddlestoners!

It’s that time of year again where we all come together to celebrate Tom Hiddleston’s birthday. This year we are going to be hosting Hiddles Birthday Week again and we would love it if you could join us!

We’re keeping things the same this year, as it made it more accessible for everyone who wants to join in even if they don’t normally create content on Tumblr.

So, without further ado, here’s a reminder of the prompts selected for #Hiddlesbirthdayweek2022.

Day One: Thursday (3rd February)

Favourite Quote/Interview   (tagged as “TH22: Quote”)

*          There are lots of interviews that leave lasting impressions. Did one include a particular quote that inspired you personally, or that made you laugh out loud. Or did you find the entire interview engaging or inspiring? Maybe it was a funny interview, or one where Tom was extra sassy with his responses. Perhaps he answered a question that you’d been wondering about for a while? It could be Tom’s views on a particular food, or his insight on a character. This day is open for long interviews like Popcorn Taxi, published interviews, or even little ones like one of the many junket videos. You might even have a favourite quote from one of Tom’s characters. This is your opportunity to share it with everyone.

Day Two: Friday (4th February)

Favourite Role  (tagged as “TH22: role”)

*        Pretty self-explanatory! What’s your favourite role? Any of Tom’s roles apply to this prompt. Theatre, film, television, or even radio if you would like to make an audio post. Is it Jonathan Pine, Loki, or Robert from Betrayal. Tell us which role holds your heart.

Day Three: Saturday (5th February)

What Do You Admire Most About Tom?  (tagged as “TH22: trait”)

*        Is it his work ethic? Do you find his advocacy of UNICEF and other charities inspiring? Maybe you admire his friendly and compassionate nature. Whatever it is, this is where you get to talk about it.

Day Four: Sunday (6th February)

Favourite Costume  (tagged as “TH22: costume”)

*        We all know how much Tom loves his day-to-day uniform, so this year let’s talk about the costumes he’s worn instead. Maybe you go weak at the knees for one of Loki’s leather ensembles (maybe even that TVA ensemble), or Jonathan Pine’s suits (or even his casual t-shirt and jogging pants!) Perhaps you prefer Tom dressed for action in one of his period roles: the blue velvet sported by Hal; the top hat and tailcoat of Thomas Sharpe; the traditional Shakespearean breeches and boots of Cassio; or even the 1970′s wide lapels of Robert Laing. Whatever look you love the most, tell us about it here.

Day Five: Monday (7th February)

Favourite Platonic Friendship or On-Screen Partnership   (tagged as “TH22: friendship”)

*        Do you enjoy the professional banter and insightful interviews between Josh Horowitz or Jenelle Riley. Or does Tom’s off-screen friendship with a cast member or colleague always make you smile? It could be Tom and Charlie Cox bonding over their failed auditions when they were younger, or his longstanding friendships with Eddie Redmayne and Benedict Cumberbatch. Maybe you love it whenever one of Tom’s character’s shares the screen with another character. This is your chance to share .

Day Six: Tuesday (8th February)

How did YOU become a Hiddlestoner?  (tagged as “TH22: Hiddlestoner”)

*        Perhaps one of Tom’s role’s particularly moved you, and you Googled his name. Maybe it was through one of his interviews. Or did you just get sucked down the Hiddles Rabbit Hole while browsing Tumblr? However you discovered Tom, tell us about your personal experience of becoming a Hiddlestoner. This isn’t about proving how much of a fan you are or who has been a fan the longest. This is about YOU. You might have been a fan for 10 years, 10 months, or 10 days. There’s no judgement. Share as much or as little as you’re comfortable with.

Day Seven: Wednesday (9th February)

Happy 41st Birthday! (tagged as “TH22: bday”)

*        Today is Tom’s birthday!! That means it’s time to celebrate! Make whatever you want to wish him an excellent year! On this day we will also be reblogging miscellaneous posts that are not tagged as “hiddlesbirthdayweek2022” but are in celebration of his birthday.

So, now that you’ve read the prompts, it’s time to create your own posts and join in! These can be in the form of text posts, audio, gifs, edits, fanart or even poetry. Remember you can always be part of the fun simply by liking posts, reblogging, and spreading the word about the event. You don’t have to post something each day either. The perfect gift is, of course, a little donation to UNICEF via Hiddlestoners Have Hearts.

Finally, we do have a few guidelines (and please be sure to follow these otherwise we will not be able to share your posts):

Please tag your posts with the tag corresponding to each day’s prompt plus #HiddlesBirthdayWeek2022 (It will help us find it!)

Please, no explicit/NSFW or disrespectful/disparaging content. No paparazzi images. And please be careful when sourcing copyrighted images, given the Tumblr policy towards these. We want to celebrate our love of Tom and his work. We don’t want anyone to get their blogs deleted! <3

Please do not repost other people’s work. If you didn’t make the art, gif, or edit yourself, please do not right-click and post it as your own. (Using the insert gif option is fine as that will link back to the original creators post).

We hope you enjoy this years celebrations!
