Loki recently made its return to Disney Plus with season 2. Eagle-eyed fans believe they caught an X-Men easter egg in the premiere of the Marvel Studios series.
The easter egg comes during scene in the season 2 premiere where Ke Huy Quan’s Orobourous leads Loki into the Temporal Loom. While easy to miss, many fans believe the shape of the door to the room was the Disney Plus series giving a subtle nod to the X-Men films:
Given both Ke Huy Quan and head of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige both worked on the X-Men films, it wouldn’t be a stretch to imagine the set designers tossing an easter egg or two into Loki season 2. Though the real question remains: is it possible for any mutants themselves to appear in the Disney Plus series?
Tom Hiddleston is spearheading the cast of Loki season two as the titular God of Mischief. The cast also includes Owen Wilson, Jonathan Majors, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Wunmi Mosaku, Tara Strong, Eugene Cordero, Rafael Casal, Kate Dickie, Liz Carr, Ke Huy Quan and Neil Ellice.
Eric Martin replaced Michael Waldron as the head writer of Loki for its second season. Martin and Waldron also serve as executive producers on the series alongside Tom Hiddleston, Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead. Benson and Moorhead directed the majority of the episodes for the upcoming season.
Loki season two is expected to premiere October 5th on Disney Plus. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
