Tom Hiddleston on "The Night Manager" is proving to be a tease. In the latest episode, which aired Sunday March 14, the actor did not shy away from exposing his butt on television in a steamy sex scene with co-star Elizabeth Debicki. It caused a meltdown on Twitter.
"The Night Manager" is a mini-series based on John LeCarre's book with the same title. Hiddleston plays the undercover agent, Jonathan Pine, who has been tasked to spy on arms dealer and billionaire Richard Roper (played by Hugh Laurie). Debicki plays Roper's girlfriend, Jed Marshall, who becomes attracted to the secret agent. The latest episode's sex scene was not the first time that they've consummated the relationship, but it was the steamiest yet.
Hiddlestone's butt did not escape the eyes of Twitter users who could not help but react to what they saw on "The Night Manager's" fourth episode:

Tom Hiddleston spends far too much of The Night Manager half-naked. Said no-one ever.

This isn't the first instance Hiddleston's butt figured on the screen. In "Crimson Peak," the actor also had no qualms about stripping down and getting naked, per E! Online.
Meanwhile, Mirror reports that the sex scene isn't the only thing that's upping "The Night Manager's" ante as the plot has now delved into Pine's deep connections with Roper. Pine refused to return to London with the authorities who warned him that he's endangering his life and their case against Roper. Instead, Pine told Roper that the police are on to him to gain his trust further.
Variety reports that "The Night Manager" might be getting a second season as Le Carre's sons and the producers are already in talks. The show airs on the BBC in the United Kingdom and will subsequently air on AMC in the United States in April.
