She believes that He Who Remains is lying about everything and, fuelled by the rage and grief of being removed from her timeline decades earlier by Ravonna Renslayer (Gugu Mbatha Raw), Sylvie is only interested in killing him. Loki buys into He Who Remains' explanation, but Sylvie doesn't. Loki episode 6 ending explained: the multiversal war begins To prevent similar wars occurring in the future, he also created the TVA to prune branching timelines and any variants with ambitions on causing permanent alternate timelines.ĭespite his earlier insistence that he knows everything that's about to happen, though, He Who Remains is lying: he only knows how events will play out up until a certain point.Īs soon as he reveal this piece of truth to Loki and Sylvie, branches begin to emerge on the sacred timeline – and another multiversal war looms large over the trio. This restored peace to the multiverse and allowed He Who Remains to isolate a singular timeline, the Sacred Timeline, which we know as the MCU. In a bid to end the chaos that ensued, He Who Remains (who is getting meta with his story at this point) encountered Alioth, the cloud monster from episode 5, and weaponized it to end the multiversal war. Not all of them are good, however, and He Who Remains reveals that it was his variants that were the sole cause of the previous multiversal war. Much like Loki and potentially every other MCU character at this point (more on this later), there are numerous variants of Richards spread across the multiverse. Richards is the 31st century scientist, and another variant who was the first of his kind to travel throughout time, that He Who Remains mentions during his lengthy multiversal war chat with Loki and Sylvie. He Who Remains/Immortus and Kang are incarnations of an individual who goes by the name of Nathaniel Richards. In this instance, Majors is playing a character called He Who Remains, but this variant seems to be heavily inspired by another Kang variation in Marvel's comic history: Immortus.įor those unfamiliar with this comics character, Immortus calls himself the 'Master of Time', which is a fitting title, as he has overseen the Sacred Timeline for millennia by the time Loki and Sylvie meet him. Not exactly anyway.Īs Majors' character reveals to Loki and Sylvie, his character has gone by many names throughout history. Viewers will immediately think that this character is Kang – except it isn't. New episodes premiere Wednesdays on Disney+.(Image credit: Disney Plus/Marvel Studios)įinally, after weeks of speculation and a firm denial from actor Jonathan Majors about his involvement in the show, Kang the Conqueror is supposedly the individual responsible for the events throughout Marvel's Loki – or is he?Īfter Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) reach the Citadel at the End of Time, and after they reject some tantalizing offers from Miss Minutes (Tara Strong) that would allow them to exist in their timelines again, the pair are greeted by an individual who will be familiar to Marvel comic fans. Mobius, Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ravonna Renslayer, Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15, Tara Strong as Miss Minutes, Eugene Cordero as Casey, Sasha Lane as Hunter C-20 and Sophia Di Martino as Sylvie, with Richard E. Another fan pointed out that in the post-credit scene, Loki is first seen lying on the ground much like he was last seen after his death in Avengers: Infinity War.Ĭreated by Michael Waldron and directed by Kate Herron, Loki stars Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Owen Wilson as Mobius M. One fan said that when Loki is pruned, it occurs in similar fashion to how the god killed Agent Phil Coulson in the movie. Herron also said that the music that adjoined the scene was scored to be similar to that of the film.įans responding to the thread also noted that more shots and moments from the episode reminded them of others from the MCU. Instead of the camera looking up at the Avengers from the ground though, viewers see Classic Loki, Kid Loki, Boastful Loki and even Alligator Loki from prime Loki's perspective. Herron says that she and cinematographer Autumn Durald "couldn't resist" referencing the moment and framed the post-credit scene in the same way.
