The wait is finally over. Disney+ has finally unveiled a trailer for “Loki,” Marvel’s limited series created for the streaming platform. The series based on the Marvel character with the same name will unravel the story fans have been long waiting for.

During the Disney Investors Meeting Thursday, the first full trailer for Tom Hiddleston starrer “Loki” miniseries was unveiled. The clip picks up where Loki was last seen in 2019’s “Avengers: Endgame.” The footage shows Thor’s villainous brother stealing the Tesseract or the Space Stone and disappearing.

Disney+ “Loki” will follow the God of Mischief in a new alternate timeline. While using the Tesseract he manages to escape his captors from the original timeline and end up in different captivity where he meets Owen Wilson’s character. He finds himself in TVA, Time Variance Authority, an organization in Marvel Universe monitoring different timelines.

Throughout the series, Loki travels through different periods of time and mess up with human history. The trailer shows Loki in different avatars, seemingly referencing his adventures in different periods of history.

As part of Marvel’s Phase Four, “Loki” is one of the first series announced by Marvel Cinematic Universe. Starring Hiddleston, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Sophia Di Martino, Wunmi Mosaku, and Richard E. Grant, the limited series will come out next year.

Marvel boss Kevin Feige describes it as a “crime thriller” led by Hiddleston’s character whereby Wilson plays a prominent role.

“You guys saw Avengers, right? So he’s still that guy. And just about the last thing that happened to him was he got Hulk-smashed,” Hiddleston said during San Diego Comic-Con in 2019 as quoted by Entertainment Weekly. “So there’s a lot of psychological evolution that is still yet to happen… This is new territory, a new world, new challenges, and I cannot wait to get started."

In addition, the series will tie into the events of “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” as promised by Feige, previously.

Written by “Rick & Morty’s” Michael Waldron and directed by Kate Herron, “Loki” is slated to release in May 2021 on Disney+.
