With an intriguing plot full of twists and turns, the series ‘Loki‘ Marvel Studios’ delves into the complexities of the iconic character of the God of Mischief. Tom Hiddleston reprises his role, taking viewers on a fascinating journey through time.

The surprising ending of Loki’s second season left many fans intrigued. In an exclusive reveal, director Aaron Moorhead shared details about an element that drastically changed the outcome of the plot.
The twist, according to Moorhead, lies in an aspect missing from the story’s initial drafts.

Previously, in early drafts, Loki Laufeyson (played by Tom Hiddleston) would emerge as a hero by saving the Time Loom, thus preventing the implosion that threatened the timelines of Multiverse.
However, something didn’t feel right to the creative team.
“Something didn’t feel right to us, and the problem was that the draft didn’t have Loki destroying the Loom [Temporal]. He would save the Loom from imploding and ascend to the throne. We knew something was missing, but we didn’t know what. Because it was like, ‘Well, he’s trying to save the Loom, he gets the throne, all that stuff,'” Moorhead explained.
The turning point came when the team realized that Loki would save the day without facing any real challenges. It was at this point that the idea of a sacrifice essential to the character came about.
“But the problem was that he didn’t have the sacrifice, so we thought, ‘Why doesn’t he just destroy the Loom and take on this huge responsibility? He doesn’t gain anything from it.’ It seems so obvious now, the right choice. But it was a turning point in development, when we realized that Loki needs to destroy and become the Loom.” added the filmmaker.
This unexpected decision provided an emotionally powerful outcome, defying viewers’ expectations.
The twist-filled second season of Loki is now available to stream on Disney+.
