    It at least answers where it fits in the timeline - so effectively this will operate within another universe it seems.

    Looks a lot more fun & interesting than the Falcon series anyway; shades of the Umbrella Academy though with its setting of some kind of buttoned up, interdimensional agency...

    Jonathan Majors will make an appearance as Kang the Conqueror

    Wonder will the show have fun with it being part of an alternative timeline, or will just ignore it for the sake of keeping Loki alive

    Ok, I'm in. I'm still sceptical about these MCU shows after Wandavision; but that looks more up my alley and the show seems aware its lead is a total shít. That they mightn't pull a Dexter. The gag about confirming everything he ever said was good.

    I'm only now realising that my favourite kind of MCU seems to be the cosmic craziness kind. Full colour, Farscape flavoured space opera.

    That looks cool! but like.. Legion/Umbrella Academy levels.. so is the audience gonna stick it?

    Have you ever been on Tumblr? :D Loki is, uh, very popular lol. Of the three TV series thus far and just in terms of the leading character, this is definitely the safest bet IMO.

    As long as it doesnt shít all over itself like Wandavision it should be fine.


    Legion maybe got a bit too extreme in later seasons for general audience but Umbrella Academy is a total juggernaut with general audience.

    And like Foxtrol said Loki/Hiddleston could probably be filmed just having a nap and it would have soaring ratings/online reaction haha.

    How long will this series be? Another 6 episode job or something a big more developed?

    Wednesday is probably the most competitive night on US TV in general.

    The show's Wikipedia has the episode count at 6. Run times between 40 & 50 minutes.

    I heard it is because Black Widow would drop between the last two episodes so if they tie in it made sense to move it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,794 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Wouldn't say it will tie in since Black widow was due out ages ago.
    I'd say the only reason it was moved away from Black Widow's release is to be sure people are available to go see Black Widow and aren't staying at hme to watch Loki.

    Small clip popped up; definitely getting better vibes from this than the previous two shows' own promotions. Hook that time-travel, alternate dimension cosmic fun into my veins please.

    Well I can see the Loki shippers will love this, if only for one "brief" moment, so to speak ;)
