Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Olsen allegedly developed feelings for each other after starring as husband and wife in the upcoming Hank Williams biopic, "I Saw The Light."

Now the first still has finally been released for the curious public to obsess over!

In the photo that Entertainment Weekly released earlier this week, the Marvel colleagues seem to be sharing a moment as they stare at each other while singing a duet.

Olsen plays Audrey, the country legend's wife.

The film will tackle Williams' life from his rise as a country music icon, his problems with his wife, his addiction and eventual death.

According to "I Saw The Light" director Marc Abraham, Hiddleston was the perfect man for the job, despite earlier backlash from Williams' fans.

"When people ask me, 'Why'd you get an Englishman?' I say, 'He's the best actor I know to play the part,'" the helmer told EW regarding his casting choice. "Who's the most famous southerner ever portrayed in the movies? Scarlett O'Hara. Who plays her? Vivien Leigh."

In order to really get into the character, Hiddleston worked with and impressed Grammy winner Rodney Crowell with his growth and work ethics.

Abraham noted that he didn't want Hiddleston to focus on imitating the legendary artist because "Tom Hiddleston or anyone was never going to sound exactly like Hank Williams." Instead, he had him capture the country star's "emotion and authenticity."

On the other hand, fans of the "Thor" star will have more than his exciting performance to look forward to in the Oscar buzzed film. Since being spotted together on a supposed date in London, the public eye has been looking forward to seeing Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Olsen's chemistry in "I Saw The Light."

The Daily Mail spotted them on an alleged date together in London last July and have since been seen enjoying the city together. They were initially romantically linked together last May.

In June, however, rumors of Olsen using her connection to Hiddleston to hide a supposed romance with "Captain American" star Chris Evans started circulating the gossip mill. These were soon laid to rest when Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Olsen "went public" with their relationship according to The Daily Mail.
