The Realist’s Take
Turn on the TVA alarms, folks! The God of Mischief is slipping through time again, probably misplacing your car keys in the process in the upcoming second season of Disney+’s Loki. Helpful as ever, Loki, played by the charmingly cunning Tom Hiddleston, is surely going to solve this problem he probably caused himself. Hiddleston, wearing the dual hats of actor and extremely sincere backstage overseer, is working his magic on the series with more vigour than a trickster god trying to score an extra donut at a classic McDonald’s. And let’s not forget the real heroes in all this chaos – the High Council of the Wardrobe Department and the Honorable Order of Set Designers that manage to create grounded reality amidst rampant time-jumping shenanigans. So, buckle up, the Master of Mischief and his partners in time crime are about to zigzag through a season two that’s sure to be more twisted than a Chitauri trying to do a waltz. Break a leg, fellas!
