Marvel Studios' Loki Disney+ series is a crazy journey and will defy expectations, according to the show's VFX supervisor. Tom Hiddleston became one of the fan-favorite actors in the Marvel Cinematic Universe during the Infinity Saga, thanks to his portrayal of the god of mischief. Even though he died again in Avengers: Infinity War, Loki got a chance for a fresh start in the MCU thanks to Avengers: Endgame. Marvel Studios used this opportunity and the Disney+ platform to give Loki his own TV show.

Loki will follow an alternate universe version of Thor's adopted brother who escaped the Avengers' capture in 2012 after the Battle of New York. This will bring Loki to cross paths with the Time Variance Authority and seemingly begin working with them to protect the vast multiverse. The first trailer for Loki showed MCU fans how different of a property it will be, as the adventures were teased across different planets, realities, and times. Marvel has kept specific plot details under wraps, which has left fans speculating about what Loki will contain.

In a new interview with Comic Book Movie, VFX supervisor, Brad Parker, was asked about his involvement in Loki. The outlet specifically asked Parker about the visual effects side of the Disney+ series and what he could tease for what is ahead. The interviewer noted how the show looks to be a crazy journey for Loki, and Parker agreed while also teasing it will surprise viewers on a weekly basis. Parker said:

Well, that’s pretty much all I can say, that it is a crazy journey! That’s another project that will defy expectations in a lot of ways. It’s been so much fun. It’s been on my hit list to work on a Marvel project, and Loki is just such a great one. It’s so cool, and there are so many amazing things that are going to happen in every episode. I can’t wait for people to see it. It’s a lot of hard work. We’re working furiously to make this thing as great as possible, and I think people are going to be thrilled when they see it.

Although some fans scoffed at the idea of Marvel Studios bringing Loki back again with Disney+, the footage released so far has gone a long way in changing that perspective. The show has been described as a crime thriller with Loki at the center, and the use of the multiverse gives the series endless possibilities for what it can explore. There is already an expectation that Loki will introduce other versions of the god of mischief from across space and time, and that is just one of the ways it could wind up surprising viewers. Theories have already popped up that Thor, Mephisto, Kang, and other major Marvel characters will appear.

Now that WandaVision concluded its nine-episode season, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier is on deck to release, but then it will be Loki's turn. Marvel Studios officially announced that the first of six episodes will debut on June 11, 2021 on Disney+. However, the story of Loki is rumored to extend beyond this first season. There are multiple reports that Marvel Studios is planning for Loki to run at least two seasons. Any setup the show does for another season could be an example of how it defies expectations too.
