Now that was officially confirmed...
Disney+ is also assembling a live-action series centered around a fan-favorite character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Iger today confirmed that Marvel Studios is developing a series based on Loki, the god of mischief, to star Tom Hiddleston.
HAS TO HAVE SIF!!! And Amora.
I still don't know if this project is a good idea or not, i mean Asgard and the 9 realms need a blockbuster budget to demonstrate all their greatness, yet i will give it the benefit of the doubt, maybe it can have a good characterization and narrative, but its a Loki series, right?
Can you do that without Asgardians? Where are they in the current state of the Mcu? It can not be just Loki and Valkyrie/Tessa story, right? Loki solo stories of the comics all are heavy Asgard focused, from Journey Into Mystery to Loki Agent of Asgard, and currently i can see a story introducing Angela, but not Balder or any of the other Odin offspring, so you need Amora and specially SIF because there is no one else to embody the Asgardian values and costumes.
And if we will have more Asgardian stuff, the current Mcu is also screaming for a JMS adaptation where Asgard is rebuilt on Earth, (Norway hopefully) and guess what, in that JMS story there is a heavy SIF and Loki link...
Now that i wrote the above i notice that with SIF and Amora would make this series supporting cast very female centric but SIF &Amora never were the "political" characters the currently puts away some audiences, even Angela when written by K. Gillen (Angela Asgard's assassin) was a cool and good character, not sure how she is written now since i don't read marvel comics for some years..
So, (even the actress want's to do it), not having SIF in the Loki Series would be totally incomprehensible and another huge issue for me, since not having SIF in a Thor Ragnarok story already was a big issue, specially because there was no explication about where she was...
