Despite being more of an anti-hero than a villain, the god of mischief has become one of the best Marvel antagonists throughout these 13 years.<\/p>\n<p>For that reason it really wasn\u2019t too surprising that Marvel Studios had <em>Loki<\/em> first in line when deciding to produce the many spin-offs that will adorn Disney Plus in the foreseeable future. However, since the main timeline Loki is very much dead after <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/avengers-infinity-war-endgame-better-change\/\">sacrificing himself in <em>Avengers: Infinity War<\/em>,<\/a> the Loki starring in his own series will be an entirely different take on the character.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/falcon-winter-soldier-marvel-video-games\/\">The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Already Looks Like the Perfect Marvel Game<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>All things considered, <em>Loki<\/em> represents a very <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/wandavision-hard-call-wanda-hero\/\">different kind of series for Marvel than <em>WandaVision<\/em><\/a> or <em>The Falcon and the Winter Soldier<\/em>, as those two are meant to tie loose ends by resolving storylines or question marks that were lingering after <em>Avengers: Endgame<\/em>; meanwhile <em>Loki<\/em> will likely be based on entirely new problems created by the trickster god.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G4JuopziR3Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>WandaVision<\/em> and <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/doctor-strange-multiverse-madness-hype\/\"><em>Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness<\/em><\/a> will set up the plot of several realities within the MCU, but Loki is playing off the beat laid down by the timeline split in <em>Endgame<\/em>. This is very obvious in the show\u2019s first trailer which poses the premise of what would happen to a Loki that escapes with the Tesseract and never goes on to live all the events that went down in <em>Thor: The Dark World<\/em>, <em>Ragnarok<\/em> and <em>Infinity War<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>This leads to the first standout element in Loki, that being the existence of several Lokis even within his own show. To better understand this it\u2019s better to take a look at Loki\u2019s new forced labor gig in the Time Variance Authority (TVA), the agency mixes all the bureaucratic nightmares of institutions like the FBI and CIA with the mind-twisting complications of interdimensional time travel that will surely spill some consequences over the rest of the MCU.<\/p>\n<p>In Marvel Comics lore, the TVA is tasked with overseeing the smooth development of all time across all dimensions, intervening whenever one of the Avengers or their foes disrupt the natural flow of things. This puts the TVA at odds with many time travel aficionados like <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/john-krasinski-fantastic-four-reed-richards-fan-art\/\">Reed Richards and the rest of the <em>Fantastic Four<\/em><\/a>, several characters within the Thor comics and Kang the Conqueror.In that sense, Kang the Conqueror could be part of <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/mcu-villains-new-approach\/\">a new approach to MCU villains<\/a> since he\u2019s already booked for <em>Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania<\/em>. By deciding to tackle head on the existence for multiple universes and timelines, <em>Loki\u2019s<\/em> introduction to the TVA helps frame the reality-twisting shenanigans with an ounce of order from an all-powerful entity like the TVA or the Living Tribunal.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static2.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/2-Lokis.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Loki himself is already <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/loki-merch-time-travel-storyline\/\">teased to be assigned missions across different eras<\/a>, even hunting himself down, as can be seen in the President Loki part of the trailer in a shot that seemingly shows two Lokis in the same place. In that same way, the suited-up version of Hiddlestone\u2019s Loki would apparently place him as the mysterious D.B. Cooper, a real-life plane hijacker from the 70s that pretty much disappeared from the face of the earth.<\/p>\n<p>In six episodes Loki could put the character against other versions of himself that are altering other timelines on Earth in ways not suited to the TVA\u2019s interest, even some never-before-seen takes on the Asgardian like Lady Loki, Kid Loki, or Classic Loki. The female version of Loki is likely what many could have mistaken for <em>Black Widow<\/em> in the series\u2019 trailer due her being shown in a setting similar to where Natasha Romanoff met her fate.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static2.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Lady-Loki.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>These many incarnations of Loki all come with their own very different personality traits, with Classic Loki <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/mcu-villains-new-approach\/\">being the more deranged villain<\/a> the character was designed to be and something like Kid Loki being more of a reincarnated god that\u2019s finally found his path to redemption, so maybe the TVA\u2019s purpose is just to have Loki reign in his doppelgangers prior to his definitive death later on or usher the era of a new Loki for the future.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s only as far a Loki is concerned, as the series still has to designate a main antagonist for Loki and the TVA, which could be anyone from <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/mcu-kang-conqueror-phase-4-villain\/\">Kang the Conqueror being teased for <em>Ant-Man 3<\/em><\/a>, the Roxxon Corporation, or maybe just another version of Loki himself. One shot that focuses on <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/tom-hiddleston-owen-wilson-loki-mcu-help\/\">Owen Wilson\u2019s Mobius M. Mobius<\/a> and a little girl has a stained glass featuring a devilish figure that could very well be the Mephisto fans had been so hyped for in <em>WandaVision<\/em>.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static3.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Mephisto-glass.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>As for potential cameos, the airplane hijacking scene in the trailer has a Loki voiceover where he appears to be talking to Heimdall and Thor, so who knows if Idris Elba and Chris Hemsworth found time to shoot any <em>Loki<\/em> scenes.<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/wandavision-ending-disappointing\/\"> Given the early record with <em>WandaVision<\/em><\/a>, crazy cameos are not to be expected as this might just be another case of Marvel wanting to focus on the spin-off protagonist.<\/p>\n<p>If <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/falcon-winter-soldier-uses-captain-america-sparingly-effectively\/\"><em>The Falcon and the Winter Soldier<\/em> are supposed to sort out who\u2019s the next Captain America<\/a> and <em>WandaVision<\/em> introduces the Scarlet Witch, Loki should be an overview of just what kind of four-dimensional chess game will be taking place in the MCU\u2019s Phase Four. At the very least it should be a grand encore and sendoff for one of Marvel\u2019s most charming villains, since as Loki would say he\u2019s always been \u201cburdened with glorious purpose\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Loki<\/em> <\/strong>is set to release on Disney Plus on June 11, 2021.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/falcon-winter-soldier-episode-1-review\/\">The Falcon And The Winter Soldier: Episode 1 Review<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Loki is bringing more than one version of the Norse god and his employment in the time travel industry will surely alter the MCU for good.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":820,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"'Loki' Could Have Larger Story Implications Than Anything Else In The MCU - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Loki is bringing more than one version of the Norse god and his employment in the time travel industry will surely alter the MCU for good."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220937"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/820"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=220937"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220937\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":220938,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220937\/revisions\/220938"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=220937"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=220937"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=220937"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
