Tom Hiddleston’s Loki will reportedly have a major role in Avengers: Doomsday, and get to do something major in the movie as well.
What is Tom Hiddleston’s Loki rumored to do in Avengers: Doomsday?
The rumor suggests that Loki will wield Mjölnir, Thor’s hammer, in some fashion in the upcoming movie. The news comes as a surprise mainly due to the nature of Mjölnir, and that you must be deemed “worthy” to pick it up. Should Loki end up using it, whatever he does in the movie must end up being extremely worthy of the move.
Throughout the entirety of the MCU, Hiddleston’s Loki has gone through some big character changes. After starting out as a villain, the character has transformed into not exactly a hero, but much more of a helpful figure than in the past.
So far, several major stars from the MCU have been confirmed to appear in the movie, including Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby’s Invisible Woman/Sue Storm, Anthony Mackie’s Captain America, Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier, Letitia Wright’s Shuri/Black Panther, and Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man.
More names for the upcoming movie include Wyatt Russell’s U.S. Agent/John Walker, Tenoch Huerta’s Namor, Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s The Thing/Ben Grimm, Simu Liu’s Shang-Chi, Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, Kelsey Grammer’s Dr. Hank McCoy/Beast, Lewis Pullman’s Bob/Sentry, Danny Ramirez’s Joaquin Torres/Falcon, Joseph Quinn’s Johnny Storm/Human Torch, David Harbour’s Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian, Winston Duke‘s M’Baku, Hannah John-Kamen‘s Ava Starr/Ghost, and Tom Hiddleston‘s Loki.
Several X-Men characters are also coming back for the upcoming movie, including Patrick Stewart‘s Charles Xavier, Ian McKellen‘s Magneto, Alan Cumming‘s Nightcrawler, Rebecca Romijn‘s Mystique, James Marsden‘s Cyclops, and Channing Tatum‘s Gambit.
Avengers: Doomsday is set to release on December 18, 2026.
