They seemed to be confirmed in July, when he and Elizabeth Olsen were spotted out on a dinner date in London.

However, half way through a dinner meeting with British actor Tom Hiddleston, Abraham, who has had the project since his producing days at Strike Entertainment, just couldn’t resist given the actor’s identical mug to the legendary country singer.
“Tom and I have been wanting to work with each other for a while”, she revealed. “We all go out to dinner”. “I don’t react to it”.
Queried on what drew her to Audrey, her character in “I Saw The Light“, the “Avengers” star said it was the dynamism of her role as a wife which made her want to take on the role. The I Saw the Light co-stars have faced speculation for months, but Olsen has denied the reports.
There is certainly an on screen chemistry between 26-year-old Olsen and her I Saw The Light co-star, but Elizabeth has now flat-out denied that there is any romance involved. And when asked again if she was dating Hiddleston, she said “no”. She said.
Just lately the pair have been busy promoting their forthcoming movie, which hits United States cinemas on November 27, and appear to be more than comfortable in each other’s company.

The fact that both acted unpleasantly surprised about being seen only added weight to the so-called “confirmation”, but Elizabeth insists that this was nothing short of a case of people seeing what they wanted to see. “That’s a great position to be in for one of those films”. “I think the way [writer/director] Marc [Abraham] wrote the dynamic of the marriage and their dysfunctional relationship was very honest”. I think if there ends up being a love interest for any of them, it’s not making them a love interest in a story. “[Tom] is trying to sound like someone so iconic, I’m trying to sound like someone who it’s even hard to find sound clippings of”.
