Tom Hiddleston might have just said a final goodbye to Loki, and our hearts can’t take it.
Following the emotionalLoki season 2 finale, Hiddleston hinted that his time as the God of Mischief has sadly come to an end.
“It all comes full circle,” Hiddleston toldJimmy Fallon, adding: “It’s the conclusion to season 2, it’s also the conclusion to seasons 1 and 2. It’s also the conclusion to six films and 12 episodes and 14 years of my life. 14 years. I was 29 when I was cast, I’m 42 now. It’s been a journey.”
Now, we’re going to delve intoLoki season 2 finale spoilershere, so turn back if you’re not up to date. For those of you who have seen the final episode, though, you’ll know that Loki has essentially become the guardian of the multiverse, protecting all the disparate timelines with his magic. That tragically leaves him all on his lonesome, far away fromSylvie,Mobius, and the others.
It does seem quite the natural conclusion to Loki’s arc in the MCU, going from tragic villain to tragic hero – but we also spy a way the trickster god could return.The Multiverse Sagais in full swing, and with all thoseKang the Conquerorvariants introduced in theAnt-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania post-credits scenestill poised to cause chaos, the MCU’s heroes might need Loki’s help keeping the multiverse from disaster.
But that remains to be seen, and for now, it certainly seems like Hiddleston is finished with Loki.
