'Loki' among announced Marvel shows

Many fans have wondered what "Loki" (one of Marvel's most talked about upcoming shows) will be about since every fan knows that Loki died in "Avengers: Infinity War." In "Avengers: Endgame," the trickster was seen in the past stealing the Tesseract. The new Marvel show is described as following the Loki from the first "Avengers" in an alternate timeline which means that the Loki that sided with Thor and ultimately dying at the hands of Thanos no longer exists. EW reported at Comic-Con in 2019, how Tom Hiddleston teased that this is the same guy fans saw before the character experienced any growth and a lot of psychological evolution has yet to happen.

This means fans can expect the god of mischief to be up to his old trickster ways. "Loki" has been described as a crime show though not much is known on what exactly that entails. Fans were excited to see in the trailer that Owen Wilson has joined 'Loki' and that he was sporting gray hair. The trailer also confirmed several other cast members including Richard E.
