A look at Loki's characters

Tom Hiddleston as Loki

Tom plays the role of Loki, who is the mischievous and adopted brother of Thor. An alternate time-variant version who created a new timeline in Avengers: Endgame. Due to this, Loki has not gone through the events of Thor: The Dark World or Thor: Ragnarok which reformed the previously villainous character before his death in Avengers: Infinity War. The series will allow Loki to break from his character cycle of being trusted by others, betraying them, then once again becoming a villain, allowing him to change and grow as a person.

Owen Wilson as Mobius M. Mobius

Owen plays Mobius, an agent of the Time Variance Authority who specializes in the investigations of dangerous time criminals, the ones who harm people by playing with timelines. While the rest of the Time Variance Authority suggests cutting or erasing Loki from existence, Mobius is in favour of him, convincing Loki to help him catch a dangerous time-variant. He is a sympathetic man who wants to see the good in Loki although he is familiar with his history.

Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ravonna Renslayer

Ravonna is a former Hunter of the TVA who is now a respected judge who oversees Loki's investigation. She is also a superior and friend of Mobius who repeatedly warns him not to trust Loki.
