The God of Mischief is back meddling again

The Nordic God of Mischief is back from the dead with his own six-part series. Loki (Tom Hiddleston, above), who’s long been a recurring figure in the

Marvel Cinematic Universe, has generally been a villain, variously attempting to conquer Asgard (his home planet) or Earth. He also has a clever knack of regularly returning from apparent death. But here the scheming antihero finds himself in trouble with the Time Variance Authority, where he is forced to answer for his ‘crimes against the timeline’ and given a choice: face deletion from reality or assist in catching an even greater threat. Co-stars Owen Wilson. Marvel-ous fun. Disney+, from Wednesday
