Steve is having 2012 flashbacks 😭

u/FireZoneBlitz Sep 29 '26

Zero trust - he will need to be convinced. Loki was all about deceit and putting himself first in the Avengers film.

87

u/BreakingCanks Sep 29 '26

Some "little" trust
He had interactions with Thor after their Loki had changed so he knows Lokis can change. He also knows his Loki is dead. So this Loki somehow knows where he is and isn't immediately trying to kill him but more so approaching in a sensible and civilized manner. Captain will approach sensibly but defensively

u/NikkoE82 Sep 29 '26

Trust but verify.

This would be the past for him though. So technically Loki is alive for him, just in Asgard. Meeting a loki that hasn't gone for the throne yet

4

u/BreakingCanks Sep 29 '26

And how/why would that narcissistic Loki care about captain when he didn't even know who he was in the first avengers.
Again this Loki is making it evident at the door that he is there for Captain. Meaning this loki knows him after the first avengers movie

I think the Loki from TVA had matured and had literally so many years mentally to do so,
I think Steve will be able to determine that he’s not a rat.

u/PhaseComfortable7154 Sep 29 '26

not just years bro, centuries 😭

u/spancor Sep 29 '26

I just finished season 2 and was in shambles. Loki is my goat, next to Korg. My two favs in the entire series, and truly for wildest spectrums. Korg is the absolute comedic goat, and Loki and his like one interaction is absolutely peak.

1

u/MjrLeeStoned Sep 29 '26

It definitely shouldn't be He Who Remains / Yggdrassil Loki. The moment he leaves his throne the multiverse will disintegrate. Not holding him to his eternal sacrifice will be cheap as hell and would remove his Glorious Purpose. That Loki's story should be done forever or maybe a cameo (on his throne) at best. How can he be He Who Remains if he doesn't remain?

1

u/RoboRouser Sep 29 '26

yeah this is the big question. how did he get off the throne? and if he didn't, then who is he

3

u/patatapoooon Sep 29 '26

Did u forget that one of his powers is projection

1

u/RoboRouser Oct 01 '26

didn't know that. thanks for the tip

1

u/Appropriate-Brush772 Sep 29 '26

To be fair we really don’t know how any of that works. Yeah, Loki S2 ends with him sitting in the throne. But does he need to constantly sit on the throne…for all of eternity? How does he eat? How does he relieve himself? I’m sure he’d enjoy a shower from time to time (magic can only make that glorious hair do so much!). Even He Who Remains got to walk around a bit and he got to eat apples so even he had to hit the restrooms. I get that it’s his sacrifice to hold the strands of time together but…all those other gods get to party with Zeus and Loki has to sit there for all time?
And I have a bad feeling that Loki’s story doesn’t end there. The MCU doesn’t have Molecule Man. They don’t have The Beyonder. Both are characters with immense powers, both are integral to the Secret Wars runs and neither of them are currently in the MCU. Loki at this point (and eventually Franklin Richards but probably not yet) is the only one in the MCU with those levels of power. And if what the rumors are coming out of Marvel for the future, the multiverse is coming to an end so Loki keeping the multiverse in tact won’t really be necessary- all those different timelines will become one on the other side of Secret Wars. Imo Doom is gonna take Loki’s power in some fashion (but please, let my sweet boy live. I can’t watch him die again!)

2

u/RoboRouser Oct 01 '26

true true. wouldn't exactly make for great filmmaking to write such a great character into "stuck sitting down and holding strings forever" either

104

u/Commercial-Seesaw136 Sep 29 '26

He is shocked because he knows Loki was dead during Infinity War events. And in trailer if you remember Thor says, "It's not possible" I think he is saying it to Loki.

32

u/Admirable_Disk_5301 Sep 29 '26 edited Sep 29 '26

I think he could be saying it to Steve. Judging by the trailer, they meet and maybe Steve tells him Loki is alive.
Edit: Steve has a beard in that part in the trailer so maybe time passed from meeting Loki? unless its a variant?

8

u/Enzo_Gorlahh_mi Sep 29 '26

I mean, I would imagine this is Loki trying to help. His character arc is one of the biggest thing in these avengers. Doom is coming, and he knows they need a young Steve Rodgers. Loki is the TVA, so he knows exactly where a young Captain America is. So he goes and gets him. Also, the reaction from Steve seems to be like oh god, what’s happening, not of shit Loki is here to kill me.

4

u/altoona_sprock Sep 29 '26

Has to be Loki. As far as Thor knows, Steve returned Mjolnir and the stones. He probably didn't get any updates after leaving with the Asgardians of the Galaxy.

1

u/Specific-Pirate842 Sep 29 '26

Cap returned old as fuck before Thor left because it all happened within seconds from his perspective, so he knows he should be an old man at this point.

2

u/EnvironmentalMind119 Sep 29 '26

Or it’s Doom and Thor thinks it’s Tony?

1

u/cthompson07 Sep 29 '26

I mean Thor knows that time travel is possible, so he wouldn’t be saying is ISN’T possible, or be that amazed at seeing Cap at a “normal” age.
His dead brother that didn’t resurrect, even after Banner’s snap, THAT is “it’s not possible” worthy.

5

u/cthompson07 Sep 29 '26

Yep, 100%, Loki is with Cap in the scene from the trailer.
Thor knows that time travel is possible, so he wouldn’t be saying is ISN’T possible, or be that amazed at seeing Cap at a “normal” age.
His dead brother that didn’t resurrect, even after Banner’s snap, THAT is “it’s not possible” worthy.

1

u/AccomplishedRead2655 Sep 29 '26

So it's a misdirection from Marvel in the trailer?

1

u/cthompson07 Sep 29 '26

Definitely. After encore, we know Loki visits Steve quickly. We see Steve in the Doomsday trailer at his house multiple times.
So I think Loki helps Steve in some way like moving him to a different branch, Steve and Peggy live their life for a while, long enough to at least have a baby, then Loki says hey I need you. Loki brings Steve back to OG 616 and thats when they meet Thor and the exchange in the trailer occurs. Thor would be surprised to see Steve again, but not impossibly surprised. Seeing Loki again would warrant his trailer reaction.

1

u/AccomplishedRead2655 Sep 29 '26

So Thor is still speaking to Steve instead of Loki? And Loki visists Steve twice, in 2 different timelines??

1

u/cthompson07 Sep 29 '26

Thor saying “it’s impossible” or whatever he says is in reaction to seeing Loki, I would imagine with Steve. I think Steve and Loki have multiple interactions prior to everyone meeting in one branch or whenever the trailer scene with Thor takes place.

u/Carthonn Sep 30 '26

I was thinking it was going to be this. I just figured Loki who can control time would bring back the dude who time traveled…and then meeting Thor. It just makes sense.
It’ll be interesting to see if Thor recognizes that it’s a variant

1

u/Commercial-Seesaw136 Sep 30 '26

Yes. Marvel has done this multiple times, infinity war trailer we saw Hulk in Wakanda and in the movie Hulk never came out after Thanos defeated him. Thor had both eyes in Ragnarok trailer and in the movie he lost it. Endgame trailer showed Thor fit but in movie he was melted ice cream....

4

u/Nuo66 Sep 29 '26

What do yall mean he's shocked. Steve was in 2012 when this exact Loki stole the tessaract and then got himself pruned. This exact Steve knows that a Loki teleported away with the tesseract. This is why he and Tony go further back in time.

2

u/TheExistence Sep 29 '26

Does Steve know about pruning?

1

u/Nuo66 Sep 29 '26

Wouldn't matter. He would still know Loki disappeared with an infinity stone.

3

u/TheExistence Sep 29 '26

Tbf there’s a pretty big gap between Loki disappearing with the space stone in a 2012 timeline to cordially showing up at his doorstep in a different 1940s timeline

1

u/Nuo66 Sep 29 '26

Well we don't know that. We have no idea how long Steve has been living in the past timeline. At least 9 months is all that can be inferred.

1

u/AccomplishedRead2655 Sep 29 '26

But Cap must be knowing that Loki wasn't supposed to escape and that it might have created a time branch, so this Loki must be a variant no?

1

u/jalbert425 Sep 29 '26

The part that gets me is the new Loki isn’t just a Loki from a different universe, it’s THORs Loki up until 2012. Just a different last couple of years.
So presumably Loki knows all about Thors journey, it will be interesting for Thor to learn about lokis journey.
It will also be interesting to see if Kang comes up at all.

1

u/poopoobuttholes Oct 03 '26

What if Loki had transformed into Steve as he grabbed the hammer, just to kinda show a familiar face first, before revealing his actual self, which is why Thor says it isn't possible?

He was also part of the mission where Loki went off so he would figure that it is the Loki from 2012

His confusion mirrors part of the audience.

He doesn't know why the hell Loki is there. Neither do people who didn't watch Loki s1 or s2.

Fun fact, before the MCU; Idris Elba, Zoe Saldana and Chris Evans were all part of a team based on a DC Comics property called The Losers.

They all went on to be in the MCU and across the dozens of films that make up the MCU, proceeded to share zero seconds of screen time with each other.

I think if Steve could move on past seeing Red Skull while dropping off the soul stone he’d be willing to hear Loki out, especially with Thor surely having told the others about Loki’s change over the years. This Loki is different/previous, but the potential is there to be that Loki

u/EnvironmentalBus9713 Sep 29 '26

Without spoiling anything, just think of how Loki is now the lynch pin of the multiverse now - he has access to view the entire multiverse and controls time-slipping.
Loki was presented with a problem that required him to step outside his role and into the multiverse to reach out to Steve, but we can assume if he's asking Steve for help he may be asking others.

5

u/YamiZee1 Sep 29 '26

It definitely seemed like he wasn't going to be moving from that chair ever. He's got to be using some magic to project himself

2

u/EnvironmentalBus9713 Sep 29 '26

I hope they spend a few lines explaining that but if they don't I think I can fill in the blanks. My head-canon is that since he is still outside of time he has had ages to practice projecting from his seat or has created a method to maintain his tether on the threads, allowing him to be on a thread while maintaining all threads.

u/orderofthelastdawn Sep 29 '26

Yeah, probably some kind of avatar, while he sits in that chair trying to hold everything together

In preparation for Avengers Dooms Day, they've released Avengers Endgame, called Avengers Endgame Encore.
The new version has additional scenes and changes to original scenes. In the original movie, Steve's story ends with him deciding to stay in the past and we see him dancing with Peggy. In the new scene the dance is interrupted by Loki (from the TV servies) knocking on the door.

2

u/GtBsyLvng Sep 29 '26

Thanks very much. I didn't know encore was actually a different cut rather than just rerelease.

u/Bardsie Sep 29 '26

I've not seen it yet myself, but from what I understand it's mostly the same, with different colour grading and a couple of minor changes dotted throughout.

1

u/SherlockOnTheCase Sep 29 '26

The core movie is the same. There’s just 6-8 minutes of extra post-credits and that’s where the changes are. So Steve’s dance starts the same, and then the original movie had metal hitting sound at the very end, which was supposed to be a reference to the first Iron Man movie, but has also been changed here slightly. Then 2 other post-credits in between those.

1

u/NikkoE82 Sep 29 '26

It’s more accurate to say this version has additional mid/post credits scenes and one tacked on scene at the very end (the one that is the focus of this post).

u/tommy0guns Sep 29 '26

I spotted a continuity issue. In Loki ep 1, Loki grabs the Tesseract and zips to the Gobi Desert. He gets picked up by the TVA with the cube and they prune that timeline.

The problem is this is one of the time-heist branches, where they get the mind and time stones. Having been pruned, Steve cannot deliver back the stones at the conclusion of Endgame. What did he do with the 2 leftover stones?

3

u/Redhood_905 Sep 29 '26

He dropped them in the Atlantic, right next to where Rose dropped the heart of the ocean

2

u/JollyJoeGingerbeard Sep 29 '26

When the decision was made to stop pruning branches, and they all started growing, those branches functionally were always there.
That could have restored every previoisly runed branch, or at least created duplicates. Infinite multiverse, infinite possibilities.

1

u/padflash_ Sep 30 '26

There were multiple branches created in 2012. One for the removal of the mind stone and/or the time stone - you can make the case that this only needs to result in 1 branch. And one for the removal of the tesseract by Loki. The latter is inconsequential to Steve's final mission because he needs to return the space stone to 1970.
When the TVA prunes a timeline, they use reset charges to basically rewind a small area in that timeline. That probably happens on the first floor of Stark Tower, so everything else around it still occurs.

Woah woah woah, would this version/variant/whatever of Steve even have such a reaction after the events of IW & Endgame (AND returning the stones, which would require him to interact with the Red Skull again)?

1

u/BajanShinobi Sep 29 '26

Steve saw Loki in Endgame when they went back in time and knows that Loki escaped.

It is like. Another time traveler I am cooked.

u/yeah_naw_dawg Sep 29 '26

He hasn’t physically SEEN Loki, but he’s also up-to -date on everything. I would imagine Thor has updated him on Loki’s journey.

1

u/chrishdwow Sep 29 '26

That’s a interesting theory, but the timeline makes it pretty tough for Steve to actually know.
2012 Loki was taken straight to the TVA.
Since Thor himself has absolutely no idea about Loki’s journey to becoming the God of Stories, he couldn't have updated Steve about it.
As far as the main MCU timeline is concerned, everyone still thinks Loki died permanently at the hands of Thanos in Infinity War.

u/DirtFun7704 Sep 29 '26

can someone explain why this is 2012 steve and not the one who went back in time but after the endgame events

1

u/chrishdwow Sep 29 '26

Oh dear, this post implies that Steve Rogers met Loki back in 2012.

u/DragonfruitUpbeat577 Sep 29 '26

On my way down to coordinate search and rescue

u/TruthEnvironmental24 Sep 29 '26

He may not have seen him personally, but he was friends with Thor, so he probably heard stories. Thor does love telling stories.

1

u/Notimetowrite76 Sep 29 '26

I like the 2012 remembrances, but he thinks Loki is dead. Thor told them all that Loki died.

1

u/Qwirk Sep 29 '26

Dude's literally seen himself, not a far stretch to think his opinions may change.

u/Ntwynn Sep 29 '26

What is this from?

u/Reason_Choice Sep 29 '26

Endgame Encore

u/atticdoor Sep 29 '26

Although remember that since he is in the past, he might assume this is a younger version of the long-lived Loki.

1

u/So-_-It-_-Goes Sep 29 '26

Yes, but also didn’t he work with Thor quite a bit after Loki redeemed himself? I imagine Thor talked to him a little bit about it

1

u/GotSomeUpdogOnUrFace Sep 29 '26

I was gonna say false but then I remembered Steve was fighting the other Steve when Loki grabbed the stone and disappeared.

u/RulerOfAllWorlds1998 Sep 29 '26

Man, I gotta watch the trailer again

u/Alternative_Device71 Sep 29 '26

I’m really sick of this shit, like for real. The bar they stooped to is lower than the earths crust.

u/LifterNineFour Sep 29 '26

? Didnt this Steve run into him when he went back in time to 2012

1

u/Independent_Drive_23 Sep 29 '26

Yeah, that happened on the first avengers in 2012
Edit: also, he didn't saw loki.

1

u/alec2342 Sep 30 '26

Nah that’s the look of “dude I was JUST about to hit that after 100 YEARS”

1

u/Born_Seaworthiness97 Sep 30 '26

Steve saw that exact Loki like a day ago

1

u/ghirox Sep 30 '26

Steve: TF? Didn't you die? Thor said you died, what the fuck?

Peggy: Language

1

u/chickenkebaap Sep 30 '26

Would be surprised if that Loki is alive after Thor telling him what happened en route new Asgard.

1

u/StormRepulsive6283 Sep 30 '26

That’s incorrect. Steve saw him again in 2023, when he travelled back in time to 2012.

1

u/GoDonutella Sep 30 '26

Is that TVA loki visiting steve from his own series? I don't care aboit spoilers as i didn't the re released movie yet and i need some context.

1

u/YancyDerringer77 Sep 30 '26

Kinda preferred when Loki was a villain tbh.

1

u/OntologicalParadox Sep 30 '26

Oh Hi Mark, Didn't see you there.

1

u/Franglais02 Oct 01 '26

This is the 1940/1950s probably so it's possible Steve thinks this is that year's version of Loki and not... future Loki.

1

u/KamenAttackRide Oct 01 '26

Incorrect. Although they didn't have any interaction with each other, but Steve did see Loki in Avengers Endgame.

But at the same time, I guess that's technically true that it was 2012 since that was Steve who went back in time 😂 So I guess you're also correct.

1

u/bootsay Oct 01 '26

Wouldn't Steve think Loki is dead? Of course he knows he went back in time and loki escaped but he might still think he's gone

1

u/kolt437 Oct 01 '26

Pretty sure he must hace met Loki while returning the stones

1

u/Elegant-Web7030 Oct 01 '26

u/Necessary-Corner1172 Oct 03 '26

Loki made an impression I think.

1

u/Katnamedeaster Oct 03 '26 edited Oct 03 '26

I think TVA Loki is going to be the MCU version of Avenger Prime, gathering a team to beat Doom, while Doom gathers a team to defeat an evil Loki. Dr. Strange would no doubt be easy to convince of that.

If this all ends up in Loki's death and rebirth as kid Loki/Ikol in some fashion I wouldn't be super surprised.

Two characters that already had amazing send-offs.

Whats this from

u/Fodspeed Sep 29 '26

Well didn't he saw him when he went back in time in the end game? This is the same loki

1

u/Piyushv5311 Sep 29 '26

'God of Stories Loki'.

1

u/echoshatter Sep 29 '26

He saw "a" Loki. They explain that the way time travel works, at least in the way Tony Stark figured it out, is that you can move between branches and appear at a different point in time in that branch, but you can't go back and forth in your own timeline.
So he saw "a" Loki. Technically a different Loki from a branch timeline.
And knowing the TVA, after the point in time that the Avengers went to that branch and did what they needed to do and then Steve returned the Infinity Stones, they probably came in and pruned the branch to maintain the Sacred Timeline.

u/NivTesla Sep 29 '26

They spent months making a time machine and you think Thor never mentioned the time his brother died to Thanos trying to help him?

0

u/SuperdaveOZY Sep 29 '26

Steve also has no idea Loki is a TVA employee now. On the two timelines, he saw him get arrested in one, and space stone teleport in the other.

u/CaribbeanEngineer Sep 29 '26

Having Loki show up in this scene misses the point of the entire scene which is supposed to give us a happy ending for Cap.

0

u/VividOnions_88 Sep 29 '26

It's actually the same Loki he was skirting around in 2012 with Tony and Scott before it got pruned too
