'The Loki Series' is taking a huge step forward!

"Disney and Marvel's Loki show with Tom Hiddleston is taking a huge step forward" 

 The title of this article of DigitalSpy sounds very promising.

This is what the article is saying:


Marvel's in-development Loki TV show has bagged itself a showrunner. Tasked with bringing Tom Hiddleston's beloved God of Mischief to the small screen on Disney's streaming platform, Rick and Morty writer Michael Waldron has been hired to write the pilot, executive produce and create the series (via The Hollywood Reporter). 

As for narrative details (remember, Loki was murdered by Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War), it's being reported that the show will follow the shapeshifting trickster as he weaves through historical human events – becoming an influencer in many surprising situations. Will he carve the iceberg that sunk the Titanic, or could Loki in fact be the chief visionary behind the great pyramids of Egypt? Probably not, but you get the idea. 

Recently, Hiddleston appeared on Zoe Ball's Radio 2 Breakfast Show to give an update on the Loki series. "We're currently in the process of polishing up what it will be: the ideas, the story, the pitch," he teased. "But it's definitely happening." 

"Disney are launching a streaming service called Disney+, and I'm not sure exactly when that will be live, but anything that's ever been made by Disney will be on that thing," he added. "So whether it's The Lion King or Beauty and the Beast, Star Wars and Marvel and Pixar will all be part of that. So you'll be wanting to subscribe."

I’m not really into Rick & Morty, but this does sound very promising. But will this be a cartoon or not? The only thing we can do now is speculate and wait. To be continued I guess..
