Loki (tv Series) first episode date 17 june 2021

Premiere Date: June 11, 2021

What We Know: Tom Hiddleston will return as the God of Mischief in the Disney+ limited series Loki. The story will follow the version of the character who escaped from custody in Endgame with a divergent copy of the Space Stone. It seems he will also get access to time travel, as early photos see Loki in a 1970s New York. Divergent timelines are a hell of thing, and this will presumably be the series to examine what it means for the MCU going forward, although Disney+’s Super Bowl ad seemed to suggest Loki will once again find himself in a prison cell. Owen Wilson, Sophia Di Martino, and Gugu Mbatha-Raw join Hiddleston in whatever hijinks his well-known alter ego gets into. As with the other Marvel Disney+ productions, filming was interrupted but there appears to be no great delay in release. In December of 2020, Feige referred to it as a “murder mystery” arriving in May 2021 – although the nature of the mystery will be confusing to the title character at first. A subsequent teaser, dropped at the Investors Day, only offered more mysteries as Loki finds himself a guest of the Time Variance Authority, questioned by Owen Wilson’s character, and discovering he is the real D.B. Cooper.

How It Fits in the MCU: In the summer of 2019, Feige mentioned the series will create repercussions that will be felt in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which may be the keystone film with both it and WandaVision feeding into it.
