Prepare for significant angsty scheming as Asgard's more mischievous prince983 Archives Loki, could be getting his own television series.
Certain characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe will possibly be getting their own shows, reports Variety, including the God of Mischief himself, Loki, along with Avenger Wanda Maximoff a.k.a. the Scarlet Witch, and other superheroes who haven't had their own blockbuster spinoff film yet.
SEE ALSO: Incredible 'Captain Marvel' trailer takes us back to the superpowered '90sDisney is developing a number of limited series, according to the publisher, for its forthcoming streaming service set to launch late 2019.
Each series will reportedly include six to eight episodes, and will be produced by Marvel Studios, with studio head Kevin Feige apparently set to be involved in some capacity.
Launching a limited series for each character could help Marvel keep to budget — nothing in the MCU comes cheap.
Interestingly, Varietyreports that the actors who played the likes of Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) in the MCU films may also star in their character series, but this is yet to be confirmed.
So, what could this look like? If the film stars are expected to play the roles, the series could pick the story up anywhere within the MCU timeline.
Loki's backstory is one Pandora's box of a trip.
But, spoiler alert, Loki's backstory is one Pandora's box of a trip, so it could delve deep into this — and we've already joined Loki on his Tesseract-thieving, New York City-invading, dad-impersonating adventures, and his ill-fated dealings with Thanos. That's over here.
Thor's brooding brother is the biological son of supervillain King Laufey of the Frost Giants in Jotunheim, but was raised in Asgard as Odin's son, so we could start with that kettle of fish. Plus, he's the God of Mischief, so there's scope to start some angsty shit all over the universe in eight episodes.
Scarlet Witch, on the other hand, has plenty of backstory to unpack in a series. We could wander through Maximoff's bleak Sokovian childhood in Eastern Europe with her twin brother Pietro a.k.a Quicksilver, spent undergoing HYDRA's superpower experiments pre-Age of Ultron.Fun.
Or we could unpack that family tree — although Maximoff was raised by adoptive Romani parents, she's the daughter of supervillain Magneto. There's plenty of drama there.
