Tom Hiddleston has been confirmed to the cast of loaded Doomsday cast, it is unclear how significant a role Hiddleston will play in the film. However, story details from Loki suggest that he could be an incredibly important force in the film in a few different ways.
The plot of Avengers: Doomsday is not known, but the cast of the film suggests a great deal. I'm so excited to see how Doomsday features the X-Men alongside other teams like the Thunderbolts and the Fantastic Four, but I'm also so curious to simply understand how all of these characters fit together. I want to see familiar characters like Thor and Loki interact with Professor X and Magneto, and I want to see how that shapes the world of this film. New comments from Hiddleston may help to make sense of the film's story.
Loki Season 2's Ending Makes His Next MCU Appearance A Huge Deal For The Franchise
Loki Is Now A Living Temporal Loom
Loki was last seen at the end of Loki season 2 in a complicated position. Following the events of the first season, all kinds of timelines began branching out at an exponentially multiplying rate. In order to combat this, Loki wound up sacrificing his freedom to replace the missing Temporal Loom. He was last seen entering to hold the timelines together, becoming a living Temporal Loom that held the multiverse together and kept the Scared Timeline from continuing to branch and shatter.
This position traps Loki in place for all of eternity, but also gives him incredible cosmic power. It is unclear exactly how the rules of his position work in the MCU, but Loki is essentially the power that holds all the timelines and all reality in place. This is a great deal of responsibility, and considering the storyline of Avengers: Secret Wars, it could be used and examined in interesting ways against the backdrop of the multiverse. New comments from Hiddleston help to explain his excitement for the film, even if he can’t say much.

Hiddleston spoke about his time with Marvel, saying: “It’s been an extraordinary chapter of my life playing Loki, and it’s not over yet.” He seemed genuinely excited for the story concerning his return.
Unfortunately, even as Hiddleston spoke about Doomsday, he was not able to share many details about what will occur with Loki in the film. He spoke about how he has "to be very disciplined about carrying this secret around," but seemed genuinely enthused about his return to the franchise. Hiddleston has been a major part of the MCU since his debut in Thor, and it is exciting that his familiar character will have the chance to return at least one more time in Doomsday.
