As mentioned already, Loki was killed in Avengers: Infinity War by the mighty Thanos, but the alternate version of the God of Mischief appeared in Avengers: End Game. The Asgardian prince fled with Tessaract through a portal, creating a branched reality.

The story of the MCU Disney+ series initiates from this point where Loki is taken into captivity by the TVA, an agency that keeps branched realities and timelines in check. Hence, due to his mischivious act, the Frost-born son of Frigga is forced to get his act together.

The series will feature tricks by Loki in the various branched realities he is made to visit by the TVA. MCU trailers often feature many fake and exciting moments, and even in Loki's trailer, the protagonist is seen donning the Avatar of D. B. Cooper and escaping through Bifrost.

To know about the context of this and many other tricks of Loki, viewers will have to tune in to Loki on Disney+ from June 9th.
