Tom Hiddleston Details His 7-Minute 'Spontaneous and Joyful' Dance Number in “The Life of Chuck” (Exclusive)

"I hope the audience finds it as spontaneous and joyful as we did," Hiddleston tells PEOPLE

Tom Hiddleston's dance moves are something to behold in The Life of Chuck.

The British actor, 43, who has gone viral for his dancing in the past, gets his boogie on in his new dramedy, which recently world premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.

"Is it seven [minutes], I think of actual dancing?" Hiddleston tells PEOPLE of the sequence, which occurs midway through director Mike Flanagan's adaptation of Stephen King's novella centered on Charles Krantz (Hiddleston), a seemingly ordinary accountant.

"Chuck Krantz is in town for a convention to speak to other accountants about accountancy things and he hears the beat of a drum. It's an infectious beat that infuses his whole body," Hiddleston says of the scene. "Suddenly, he finds himself moving his hips. And across the way is a young woman who seems to be enjoying it too."

"It's completely spontaneous and joyful," Hiddleston adds. "And I hope the audience finds it as spontaneous and joyful as we did."

Hiddleston's costar in the impressive sequence, Annalise Basso, tells PEOPLE that "Tom's lead was the easiest and the most fun to follow."

"I've been dancing for most of my life and Tom made me feel like Ginger Rogers," she jokes, before clarifying: "I'm not saying that I am!"

"The thing about the dance that's in the film, it's really about the interiors, multitudes we all contain. So none of us in any of our lives are only one thing," adds Hiddleston.

The Life of Chuck also stars Chiwetel Ejiofor and Karen Gillan, both of whom starred in Marvel projects alongside Hiddleston, who plays Loki in the character's standalone Disney+ show, as well as The Avengers movies.

"I hadn't realized [the connection] until it was pointed it out," says Hiddleston. "I mean, I sort of had, but it hadn't occurred to me because The Life of Chuck is its own universe in a way. It's its own constellation. And within that constellation, actually, not all the characters meet at the same time."

Hiddleston adds that the "beauty" of King's story and Flanagan's screenplay "is that actually the soul of every human being has such extraordinary depth and range — so don't judge a book by its cover. We are more than one thing and the dance arises out of something extremely spontaneous."

The Life of Chuck does not yet have a release date.
