LOKI AND SCARLET WITCH TV SERIES ANNOUNCED

It has been reported that on the Disney streaming service, there will be two exclusive live action shows featuring Loki in one show, and Scarlet Witch in the other show, being leads, and reportdely connecting with the Marvel Cinematic Universe having Tom Hiddleston reprise his role as the God of mischief and Elizabeth Olsen as the first mutant in the MCU. This news is huge so I will go over what both shows could look like, and what else this means for Marvel television, and other Marvel characters.

The Loki show is something which surprises me as a show which would be made. The character is apparently dead in the universe since Thanos snapped his neck. That means that with a Loki tv show, it would mean that the show takes place before Infinity War, possibly before the first Thor film, or somewhere else in the timeline. The other possibility is that Loki is resurrected in Avengers 4 and a television series follows him in the present tense. A Loki series will be interesting and will look vastly different depending on where in the timeline it takes place. But Tom Hiddleston in a standalone tv series would be exciting to see, bringing in a strong lead and performance for whatever this show would look like.

Scarlet Witch is my favorite Marvel character and it would be insane seeing a tv series focusing on the character. If there were a tv series on the character it would take place after Infinity War and Avengers 4. This is because it would be easier focusing on a story of the character in a time where she has a grasp of most of her powers, and she is not invovled with any A-list characters that would not be in a tv series. The reported point of these tv series is to focus on characters in the Marvel films who have not gotten their own film, and are not big enough to warrent their own film.

I would be super excited to see Elizabeth Olsen have her own tv series as Scarlet Witch, as the show would develop the character a whole lot more, and we could see some more dimensions to the character see how she can handle things on her own.

One thing to remember is that Marvel Studios and Marvel Television are ultimatley two differnt studios. Marvel Studios opperates with the films, and are doing their own thing, while Marvel Television is a seperate studio who has made the ABC and Netflix show. They are both fit under the same continuity, with Marvel Studios creating the universe without reguarding the television side, while Marvel Television does its best to fit into the continuity and the universe set by the films.

These new shows which are being reported as being produced by Marvel Studios, with Kevin Feige himself working as a producer on the shows. So these shows are not going to be completeley isolated from what we see in the films such as the Neflix shows.

It was also reported that there are other characters who are not too prominent in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that could potentially get their own tv series. I might do a speculation of who could later on because this does open up a series of potential tv series for other characters which does excite me.

What do you think of this news? Comment below your excitement and what you would like to see from these tv series coming to the Disney streaming service and the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

All that an more ahead. Opening the trailer is a shot off is Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Spiderman (Tom Holland), and Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) in what appears to be the Thanos circle ship that we saw in the previous trailer.
