Loki has something that the other Disney+ shows don't have. Its focus on its titular character gives the show an anchor that other series lack.
The Big Picture Loki has been, up until now, the only Disney+ live-action TV show to be granted a sophomore season. This can perhaps be explained with the appeal generated through its focus on Tom Hiddleston’s titular character. Out of the wide variety of series that have been launched as part of Phase Four and Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Loki truly gives its protagonist the spotlight without letting the wider universe get in the way.
Release Date June 9, 2021 Cast Tom Hiddleston, Owen Wilson, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Richard E. Grant Seasons 2 This Version of Loki Is a Fresh Take on the Asgardian God For three Thor movies and two Avengers films, Hiddleston fleshed out the Sacred Timeline’s Loki, through one of the fullest character arcs a villain-turned-anti-hero has had in the MCU. The bad news: Loki was always destined to lose and end up dying at the hands of Josh Brolin’s Thanos. The good news: Loki always finds a way.
‘Loki’ Introduces New Characters and Fleshes Them Out Whenever the focus of Loki is taken away from its protagonist, it’s to shine a light on its supporting characters, letting the audience get to know and care about them. Take DiMartino’s Sylvie, a female Loki variant who was taken away by the TVA and found a way to survive her pruning by hiding in apocalypses. Getting to know her struggles and her longing for a life of her own makes us root for her.
Other Marvel Disney+ Shows Should Take Note of ‘Loki’s Formula Close Even though Loki as a character originated from Thor, it never tried to be a setup for Thor: Love and Thunder, contrary to what we saw in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. Perhaps it was a bit more infuriating, as the setups introduced in the series, up to now, have led to nowhere. While the show is a very satisfying meta experience, something got in the way of its storytelling – particularly, everything involving the Hulk .
