Actor Tom Hiddleston as Loki in a still from The Avengers.
Actor Tom Hiddleston's character Loki will feature in the new batch of recently announced Marvel films including Thor: Ragnarok and both parts of Avengers: Infinity War. Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios, made the announcement, reported Ace Showbiz.
It was pretty much a given that Loki's character will have an appearance in the third Thor film. By the end of Thor: The Dark World he was able to take the form of King Odin and had persuaded Thor (Chris Hemsworth) to return to Earth and be with Jane Foster, played by Natalie Portman.
He will also play a part in
Avengers: Infinity Part 1 and Part 2 because his scepter has one of the Infinity Stones in it and once it is placed in the Infinity Gauntlet (bear with us) it will set off havoc for the band of superheroes to deal with.
Thor: Ragnarok will be released on July 28, 2017, while
Avengers: Infinity Part 1 will come out the following year on May 4, 2018, before Part 2 follows on May 3, 2019.
