The God Of Mischief is back, and time is of the essence… quite literally it seems, as Disney+ drops a trailer for ‘Loki‘, premiering Friday, 11th June 2021 on the streaming service.
‘Loki’ features the God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow in a new series that takes place after the events of ‘Avengers: Endgame’. For those of you a little confused by that (given the… erm… “state”… Loki was left in during his MCU run), this is following that alt-version we saw absconding with the Tesseract in ‘Endgame’.
So, this is a “Loki variant” from “The Avengers” movie era, meaning way more “God of Mischief” than the main-timeline version who softened a bit after the events of the later ‘Thor’ movies. This version finds himself a fish-out-of-water when he lands in a world of trouble with the bureaucratic TVA (Time Variance Authority)…
Tom Hiddleston returns as the title character, and is joined by Owen Wilson, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Sophia Di Martino, Wunmi Mosaku and Richard E. Grant. The six-episode series is directed by Kate Herron (‘Sex Education’, ‘Five by Five’) and Michael Waldron (‘Heels’, ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’) is head writer.
‘Loki‘ premieres Friday, 11th June 2021 on Disney+ worldwide.
