New Loki Special Look: Tom Hiddleston Is Burdened With Glorious Purpose

Following the surprise release of the new Marvel Cinematic Universe movie reel yesterday, Marvel Studios continues to tease fans with their highly-anticipated Phase 4 slate by unveiling a brand new Loki sneak peek for their newest and third MCU series on Disney+. The video, which debuted last night during ESPN’s Arena of Heroes event, featured some new footage of Tom Hiddleston’s fan-favorite villain. It also included a preview of Loki recreating one of his lines from 2012’s The Avengers while also highlighting the chemistry between him and Owen Wilson’s Mobius as they must work together to fix the timeline.

Loki will feature the return of Golden Globe winner Tom Hiddleston as the fan-favorite mischievous titular villain. The character was last seen in Avengers: Endgame, where he successfully had stolen the Tesseract during Iron Man and Ant-Man’s failed attempt to retrieve it. Because of this, the God of Mischief has been arrested by the Time Variance Authority, a bureaucratic organization that exists outside of time and space, due to the damage he had done with the timeline. Now, he must willingly work with the TVA in order to fix the reality he broke or else face deletion from existence.

The series will also be introducing new characters to the MCU, including Sophia Di Martino (Yesterday, Flowers, Into the Badlands), Owen Wilson (The Royal Tenenbaums), Gugu Mbatha-Raw (Black Mirror: San Junipero), Cailey Fleming (The Walking Dead), and Richard E. Grant (Can You Ever Forgive Me?), Sasha Lane (American Honey) and Wunmi Mosaku (Lovecraft Country).
