Loki Season 1 saw the God Of Mischief being captured by the Time Variance Authority as he’d sullied the timeline he belonged in. Just to recap, in Avengers: Endgame as Stark and Scott were trying to get the Tesseract they “mess up” because the Hulk acts out as he had to take the stairs. Subsequently the Tesseracts lands in Loki’s hands and he escapes, messing up the timeline. As a result, the TVA captures him. In his time at the TVA, he meets various variants of himself including an Old Loki and even a Croc Loki. However, more importantly he meets a female variant of himself- Sylvie. Sylvie was captured by the TVA in her childhood to fix the timeline. Since then she made it her life mission to destroy the not so benevolent staff of the TVA.
Our Loki falls in love with Sylvie and adopts her mission as his own. Ultimately, this mission leads the narcissistic couple to the man behind the TVA’s curtain, He Who Remains- Kang the Conqueror. Sylvie’s decision to kill Kang the Conqueror at the end of Season 1 results in multiple versions of him being unleashed that liberates the timeline. Season 1 of Loki left us on a huge cliffhanger as we see Loki, Mobius and Hunter B-15 staring at the statue of Kang the Conqueror with seemingly no memories of him. The post credit scene of the series did confirm a 2nd Season that was afoot but it was unclear as how will characters like Sylvie and Ravonna Renslayer be brought back. Season 2 started shooting in the UK in mid 2022. However, has the brother of the God of Mischief seen his brother’s alternate adventures?
Why has Chris Hemsworth Not Seen Loki?
Chris Hemsworth recently appeared on Josh Horowitz Happy, Sad, Confused podcast where the actor revealed that he has only seen one episode of Loki Season 1. He further justified his actions as we all know because he is so busy. The conversation went something like:
Josh Horowitz: “It’s the Anthony Mackie, ‘cut the check moment.’ Are you able to keep up with everything, because I’ve been paid to do this, Chris and I can barely keep up with all the Marvel stuff. Like, what percentage of all those shows…”
Chris Hemsworth: “Oh no, nothing. No, no, no. And yeah, I would love to. I think I saw an episode of Loki and I thought, ‘Oh, that’s cool.’
Horowitz: “You didn’t watch all of Loki?”
Hemsworth: “Mate, I’ve got three kids, mate. I’ve got three kids and… I’m off gallivanting around the place… No, I haven’t watched anything. It’s not because I don’t want to. I just haven’t had time.”
The actor then revealed that his favorite pieces of content that he enjoys watching.
Horowitz: “What do you watch when you have the opportunity?”
Hemsworth: “Peaky Blinders has been a favorite of mine… yeah, yeah. It’s wicked. I could watch Cillian Murphy all day. He’s incredible… What have I watched? I mean look, I can’t even… I don’t know. It could be whatever my kids are watching… which recently was Jackass and I’m like, ‘That’s not a kid’s movie.’ And [them] asking all sorts of questions, which I can’t answer.”
