Disney+ will roll out the MCU shows later in the year and there is a steady stream of updates pouring in.

One of the shows that fans are eagerly waiting for is the Tom Hiddleston-starrer 'Loki'. According to Murphy's Multiverse, the filming is set to start in less than a week from now. At the moment, it has been confirmed that 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' and 'WandaVision' are currently being filmed and will debut in Fall 2020.

Last we saw, Loki rabbited after grabbing the Tesseract during the time-travel storyline in 'Avengers: Endgame'. Barring that, there has been no real idea of what the miniseries could be all about. Apart from playing Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Hiddlestone is known for his roles in Steven Spielberg's 'War Horse', 'The Deep Blue Sea', 'Midnight in Paris', the BBC series 'Henry IV' and 'Henry V'. 'The Night Manager', a BBC/AMC limited series, won him his first Golden Globe Award for Best Actor - Miniseries or Television Film.

He also received two Primetime Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie and Outstanding Limited Series for the same project. Talking about his character in the mini-series, he said: "You guys saw Avengers, right? He's still that guy. And just about the last thing that happened to him was that he got Hulk-smashed, so there's a lot of psychological evolution that hasn't happened yet, but Kevin has generously shown me what his plans are — I can't tell you any of them — but it is one of the most exciting creative opportunities I think I've ever come across."

For now, it does appear 'Thor: Love and Thunder' will come in before 'Loki', but we don't know if the God of Mischief will be in it. He was, of course, an integral part of the first three films.

'Loki' is set to hit the streaming network in Spring 2021.
