Loki lives on: Tom Hiddleston confirms return for ‘Avengers: Doomsday'
Tom Hiddleston , the star of God of Mischief, has officially returned to play Loki in the next big Avengers blockbuster, Avengers: Doomsday , which is currently set to be released in December 2026. His recent appearance provided fans with interesting hints about how the dramatic finale of Loki Season 2 might pave the way for the next phase of the series, as well as his personal career path within it. During the interview, Kimmel suggested that Loki is the character 'who held the timeline of the MCU,' to which Hiddleston corrected, 'the character still holds the timeline.' This subtle but crucial distinction hints at Loki's continued importance in the evolving multiverse narrative. Hiddleston's remarks indicate that, despite the character's apparent sacrifice at the end of Loki Season 2, his influence—and perhaps his presence—remains pivotal as this universe moves toward 'Avengers: Doomsday.' When questioned about his involvement in the new movie, Hiddleston answered in his usual wit and reserve, saying, "See, this is where I run out of rope, Jimmy. We always do this dance, you and me.". I can only tell you.I'll be there." He continued to recount a funny story about having been surprised to be included in the official cast release, stating, "There was the big thing they did with all of the names on the back of the chairs. I didn't know. I was like, 'Oh, I guess I'm in the movie.' In fairness, I did know I was in the movie.". But I'm so accustomed to not knowing, 'I'm in the movie.'" His remarks indicate both the hush surrounding productions and the actor's own flippant attitude toward the franchise's surprises. The conclusion of 'Loki Season 2,' in which the title character sacrificially died to secure the multiverse's safety, will likely figure into the run-up to 'Avengers: Doomsday.' In the season finale, Loki realizes he must remain alone for eternity, exchanging himself for the powers necessary to keep the multiverse intact—especially now that the Kang variants are no longer a threat. This selfless act not only cements Loki's transformation from villain to hero but also sets up a new dynamic for the MCU's future. Fan theories suggest that 'Avengers: Doomsday' will see Dr. Doom—played by Robert Downey Jr., marking his much-publicized return —attempting to steal Loki's powers, potentially sparking chaos across the multiverse. While Marvel has not officially confirmed these plot details, the speculation aligns with the narrative threads left by 'Loki Season 2' and the broader direction of the multiverse saga . Hiddleston's return, combined with Downey Jr.'s comeback as a new villain, promises a high stake, emotionally charged adventure for Marvel fans. As the God of Mischief continues to 'hold the timeline,' audiences can expect his legacy to loom large over the events of Avengers: Doomsday, ensuring that Loki's journey—and sacrifice—will resonate throughout the next phase.
