'Loki' director Kate Herron says David Fincher had a 'heavy influence' on her series

Marvel's latest series Loki has debuted on Disney+ Hotstar with its first episode. It brings back Tom Hiddleston as the God of Mischief in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Fans are hyped to see the show and now the director, Kate Herron has said that acclaimed thriller filmmaker David Fincher influenced it in some ways. 

Marvel's Loki series is influenced by David Fincher

In a recent interview with Fox News, Loki series director and executive producer Kate Herron said that Se7en, helmed by David Fincher, had a "very heavy influence" on the show. Talking about the project, head writer Michael Waldon stated that he surely thought of Fincher. He noted that his film Zodiac was also a "big influence" in the writers' room. 

The series would probably not be all dark as his movies clarified the Emmy-winning writer. Waldon mentioned that he was just thinking of Loki as DB Cooper when he first heard of the series. He asserted that the opportunity for "chaos and fun" within that just seemed like it would be a great time, so he went after it. 

Loki release date and time in India

Loki has arrived in India on June 9, 2021. The first episode is now streaming on Disney+ Hotstar in the country. The running time of the debut episode is 50 minutes. The series is available in English and Hindi language. New episodes will drop every Wednesday around 1:30 PM. Tom Hiddleston in Loki faces the Time Variance Authority (TVA) as he stole the Tesseract and created different timelines in Avengers: Endgame.

#Loki: Eps. 1 & 2 NO SPOILERS Review:

This is Marvel’s best Big Finish boxset yet. (This really feels like the MCU’s Doctor Who.)

Hiddleston is clearly having a *lot* of fun and Loki remains the MCU’s most interesting character.

And oh man, that reveal in the first episode.

Early review for #Loki — First two episodes are pure Marvel magic. Easily one of the best Marvel projects ever and that’s not exaggeration. This will wake up anyone who is tired of MCU projects. #Loki reminds us why Marvel is so good at what it does. (1/7) pic.twitter.com/kIHf8j7Fnm
