When Loki was murdered by Thanos in “Avengers: Endless War,” fans believed Tom Hiddleston would never bring the Cheating God to life again.

However, he got one more chance when the villain stole the Tesseract in “Avengers: Ultimatum” and ended up starring in his own series.

And as confirmed in the last episode, Marvel Studios is already developing a second season of the attraction.

And it looks like Hiddleston has no plans to step down from that role anytime soon.

During a question-and-answer session on Tumblr, the star said he wouldn’t mind playing the anti-hero for the rest of his life.

“If I could get old playing Loki?” Yes of course. I’m so lucky to have played this role for so long… I feel like he’s such an interesting character that’s been in human consciousness for so long.

He continued:

Enjoy watching:

“And he has so many different aspects, so many complex characteristics. It seems like every time I play it I discover something new or we manage to evolve it or take it on a road we’ve never taken before. It has been around for a long time and I think it will be much longer.

Unfortunately, we still don’t know when we will see the character again.

But, according to the Comic Book, new episodes of the series are expected to begin production in 2022.

In the meantime, all of the Season 1 episodes are still ongoing in the Disney + catalog.

Created by Michael Waldron, the series takes place after the events of the movie “Avengers: Ultimatum”, in which an alternate version of Loki creates a new timeline.

After stealing the Tesseract, an alternate version of Loki is brought to the mysterious Time Variation Authority (AVT), a bureaucratic organization that exists outside of time and space, and oversees the timeline. They give Loki a choice: to be erased from existence to be a “time variant” or to help set the timeline and deter a greater threat. Loki finds himself trapped in his own crime thriller, traveling through time and altering human history.

Tom Hiddleston stars in the production. The cast also includes Owen Wilson, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Sophia Di Martino, Wunmi Mosaku and Richard E. Grant.
