With the release of a new mid-season Trailer, Loki reveals a shot of the God of Mischief seemingly standing on the Asgard throne.
The release of a brand new mid-season Trailer has excited all the fans, featuring many scenes that reveal a lot about the series. The mid-season trailer of Loki also featured a shot of Asgard. The Marvel Studios‘ current Disney+ series is left with three episodes to wrap its season. To reveal what lies ahead for the God of Mischief, a promotional video was released previewing what to expect from the back end of the season.
After Loki’s escape during the New York leg of Avengers: Endgame’s time heist, the trickster was recruited by the TVA to hunt down his variant who has been causing chaos and leaving trails of dead Minutemen. With agreeing to the offer of Agent Mobius and even after a brief attempt to con Agent Mobius, Loki correctly predicted where their target, named Sylvie was hiding. Loki, instead of stopping her from escape, decided to join her. By the end of episode 3, the God of Mischief and his variant are trapped in Limenitis-1 as it awaits destruction.
The promotional clip from the Marvel Studios series nearly confirms that the pair will eventually get caught by TVA, escaping the doomed moon. But it also reveals a glimpse of the Asgard-looking setting. This surely made fans thrilled to see Loki in Asgard.
The brief moment shot surely spawned countless theories about the Asgard scene. It’s worth noting that Thor and Loki’s childhood home was one of the many places that Sylvie bombed at the end of Loki episode 2, creating multiple branches in the timeline that could ultimately factor in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. It’s uncertain what year they end up in Asgard but it’s possible that this was during the time before the events of Thor: Ragnarok as it would allow Loki and Sylvie to move undetected by the TVA. The question now is whether or not the Loki in the trailer is the MCU’s original or another variant.
This can also be a flashback scene of the God of Mischief in his homeworld, another variant, or the MCU’s original Loki moving about the timelines. While Asgard has been destroyed for several years now and the Asgardians have found a new home on Earth as seen in Endgame, the realm might still appear in Thor: Love and Thunder based on the images from the set of movie captured in Australia.
It is unclear how this is feasible unless it’s for a flashback sequence, but it’ll be interesting to see how it plays into the Taika Waititi film’s story. Whatever the case may be, it is possible that it will first appear in Loki, as shown in this new video.
