'Loki': Disney+TV series rumored to include Minutemen as IMDb credits two stunt performers for role

Going by comic history, The Walt Simonson created Minutemen are seen as the 'police force for the Timestream' and work with the Time Variance Authority

The Coronavirus outbreak may have halted the production of the 'Loki' TV series, however, that hasn't stopped new details from being revealed.

According to Murphy's Multiverse, two stuntmen in the show were credited as "Minuteman" in the series' IMDb page. Going by comic history, The Walt Simonson created Minutemen are seen as the "police force for the Timestream" and work with the Time Variance Authority. 

The TVA is confirmed to appear in the series especially after Loki's costume in the first look from the "Big Game"  TV spot released during this year's Super Bowl LIV. According to Comicbook, Stunt performers and actors Chris Brewster and Isabelle Fretheim are both credited as Minutemen in the series. The duo have been previously involved in multiple MCU projects with 'Iron Man 3', 'Thor: The Dark World', 'Black Panther' and 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' to name a few. 

Earlier this year, The Illuminerdi reported that the studios were planning on introducing the famed Anchorite in the Tom Hiddleston-starrer mini-series. As reported by Comicbook, if this report is true, then we might be looking at Marvel Cinematic Universe's first transgender character. In the comics,  says Sera was a rare, wingless male 'Angel of Heaven' who was kept inside a temple by the Hierophants to pray for the dead angels who had no soul. However, the character was identified as female. 

Tom Hiddleston reprises his role as Loki, the titular god of mischief.  Sophia Di Martini is speculated to play either Lady Loki or Enchantress alongside Hiddleston.  Gugu Mbatha-Raw is set to appear in a secret role as well. We also know that actor Owen Wilson is playing a TVA agent in the show with Richard E. Grant recently roped in as well. Fans have heavily theorized Grant would be playing famed Marvel villain, Kang the Conqueror. 

'Loki' was originally slated to release in Spring 2021. With the production of most shows halted, it remains to be seen if the series release date may be moved further down the year. Other 2021 releases include 'What If…?' in Summer and 'Hawkeye'.
