Tom Hiddleston invokes Andrew Garfield’s name in the defense of his answer on whether Loki will be in Thor: Love and Thunder or not.

Tom Hiddleston recently sat down with Total Film to talk about his character Loki, and more specifically whether Loki will appear in certain upcoming MCU properties such as Thor: Love and Thunder.

First, Hiddleston covered Loki Season 1.

“We made some new, bold choices,” Tom said of the first season while talking with Total Film for the new issue of the magazine, “Loki goes on a really big, internal journey that felt very new and fresh. And I thought, ‘I would like to explore this kind of story, whether it’s Loki or not. But the fact that it’s Loki is even more interesting.'”

“[Plyaing Loki] is a source of eternal surprise and delight, the whole journey. It’s absolutely a part of my life now, and will always be. You know, just now in the bathroom, somebody came in, and said, ‘Loki!’ And I said, [indicates to himself] ‘Tom.’ And they went, ‘Sorry. Yeah.’ But it’s what people see.”

Asked by TF about Loki season 2, Hiddleston pauses. “What can I say? It’s very much continuing to excite and challenge me… At the end of season 1, the story isn’t over. I think that’s really clear. Loki’s almost more unstable, and as turbulent and passionate and chaotic as he’s ever been. And maybe some of that needs resolution. There’s stuff to unpack.”

There are rumors that Loki may appear in both Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder. Seeing as how Loki is tied so closely to both Thor, and now the multiverse, both would make sense. When questioned about the latter, Hiddelston remains coy. “I’m living in a question mark,” he says. “It’s all unknown. You know, I used to think that I could predict these things, but I literally have no idea. And I’m not even doing an Andrew Garfield! I just don’t know.
