The season 2 finale of Loki on Disney+ has left fans speculating about its impact on future Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) projects. With the events of the episode setting the stage for potential connections to Deadpool 3 and Avengers: Secret Wars, there is much excitement among viewers.
In the finale episode titled Glorious Purpose, Loki comes to a realization that trying to save Victor Timely and expanding the rings of the Temporal Loom is ultimately futile. Sylvie reminds him that the branching timelines were destined to occur. Realizing this, Loki decides to go back in time and prevent Sylvie from killing He Who Remains, leading to unforeseen consequences.
He Who Remains, aka the Kang Variant, reveals that his death would not have resulted in a permanent outcome due to a failsafe he had implemented. This ensures that the timelines will continue to branch, potentially leading to a devastating war between different realities, possibly a Secret War.
In a surprising turn of events, Loki decides not to kill Sylvie and instead uses his magic to gather all the loose timelines together. It transforms him into a version of the World Tree from Norse mythology, where he takes on the role of the God of Stories. He commits to sitting for eternity to maintain peace across the various timelines, ensuring the well-being of his friends and everyone else.
However, this may not be the end of Loki’s story. During an appearance on the Jimmy Fallon show, actor Tom Hiddleston dropped hints about the season finale’s connection to Deadpool 3 and Avengers: Secret Wars. While Loki may not personally appear in Deadpool 3, rumors suggest that the Time Variance Authority (TVA) will have a significant role in the storyline. It wouldn’t be surprising if Loki makes an appearance in projects such as The Kang Dynasty or Secret Wars.
The second season of Loki promises new and thrilling adventures as the mischievous God finds himself in a fresh set of challenges alongside the TVA. Fans are eagerly anticipating what lies ahead for the character.
Loki season 2 stars an ensemble cast including Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Sophia Di Martino, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Wunmi Mosaku, Eugene Cordero, Rafael Casal, Tara Strong, Kate Dickie, Liz Carr, Neil Ellice, Jonathan Majors, Ke Huy Quan, and Owen Wilson.
