Marvel Studios hasn't finished with their Disney+ journey of next year yet, as the third show released will follow one of the most famous antagonists of the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe: Tom Hiddleston's Loki.

After Thor's brother met his demise at the hands of Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War, fans were devastated that the character may never return. However, Loki's short cameo in Endgame, as the heroes travelled back in time to the events of the 2012 Avengers movie, saw the Asgardian prince escape to his own branched off timeline using the Space Stone.

The God of Mischief was subsequently confirmed to being getting his own TV series, with this show to follow this alt-timeline version of the character who has missed out a large portion of the events in the MCU that lead to his Infinity War demise.

In a short promotional video released by Marvel Studios and Disney+ at this year's Super Bowl, Loki is only seen for a brief few moments at the very end of the trailer - but that appearance alone has got fans excited for the villain's sinister return as he messes with timelines across history in his self-titled series.
