The 'Loki' TV series on Disney+ is rumoured to be gathering momentum.
Loki, The God of Mischief, is expected to return to our screens, albeit in a slightly different capacity than what we were expecting.
Charles Murphy, who normally tweets rumours and scoops about Marvel-related news has heard rumour that Tom Hiddleston will indeed be back for the TV series. However, he will be back as narrator of the tale.

Remember, the Loki stuff is an unconfirmed rumor I heard. However, from the looks of Twitter, I can tell other people have heard it as well. Doesn't make it more true. Could totally be an echo chamber for all I know.

It's believed that Disney are looking to cast a younger version of the character, potentially gearing up the streaming service for a Young Loki TV series; if that is so, it might lead to an even bigger Young Avengers TV series or movie.
If they do Kid Loki and the V&SW series follows them having kids, the seeds for Young Avengers continue to be sewn. Cassie. A possible Kate Bishop. Speed and Wiccan. Kid Loki. It's not a bad thing at all, but all this is just speculation based on rumors.

Some of the best Loki stories I've ever read are Kid Loki. We've had several men play Batman. Two play Magneto in the same movie. We've had two Sue Storms and three Peter Parkers. I can not only survive another Loki, I look forward to it, especially if they're going Kid Loki way

It's important to say that these are all rumours for now, and nothing has been confirmed by Hiddleston or Disney, for the moment.
Supposedly no expense is being spared for the new series', with Disney wanting this series and the others to feel like movies.
I've heard several times that money isn't an obstacle on these series.

News of these new limited series' from Disney+ are beginning to make headlines recently. Another series regarding The Vision and Scarlet Witch is due to be in development, with the writer of 'Captain Marvel' recruited to oversee the pilot episode; while another joint Avenger venture starring Falcon and Winter Soldier is also in active development at the studio.
What do you make of this rumour? Would you still be as excited for the TV series if it was only narrated by Tom Hiddleston, and doesn't feature him? Let us know what you think.
