Redditors have been working overtime to put all the pieces together in Loki season 2. A new theory, focusing on Sylvie’s actions in a Loki season 2 trailer that I wasn’t the biggest fan of, suggests Sophia DiMartino’s Goddess of Mischief is the key to saving everything.
This is the best answer to Mobius’ hidden identity on Loki
13.10.2023 - 16:17 / polygon.com / Owen Wilson / Tom Hiddleston / Best
It is an underappreciated fact that most shows and movies would be funnier if one member of the cast was inexplicably recognizable diegetically as their real-life celebrity self — think Kevin Garnett in Uncut Gems or LeBron James in Trainwreck, but with all the meta jokes of Julia Roberts “playing” herself in Oceans 12. Imagine how much more fun Shazam! Fury of the Gods would be with one or two added jokes about Hespera looking exactly like Dame Helen Mirren or passersby asking if she was in The Queen. In Loki season 2, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has its best chance yet to make this excellent bit a reality, and it had better make good on it.
Mobius’ (Owen Wilson) identity on the Sacred Timeline is the best mystery of theseason. Sure, we’ve got some Kangs to contend with, along with Miss Minutes and Ravonna Renslayer running through time and plotting, but the enigma really worth caring about is much more inconsequential: Who is Mobius and why doesn’t he want to go back to the Sacred Timeline? With the introduction of X-5 as actor Brad Wolfe in the Sacred Timeline, Loki has opened the door to all kinds of ridiculous plotlines, punchlines, and all the general zaniness that its premise could possibly allow for. Every character in the MCU canon could suddenly be anyone else, and in the case of Mobius, he’s surprisingly reluctant to know who else he could be.
The best possible answer, of course: Mobius should be Owen Wilson on the Sacred Timeline.
He should literally be the actor Owen Wilson, with a functionally identical career to the one he has in our world. When Mobius walks through the world of the Sacred Timeline, he should be recognized in the streets as Owen Wilson. People should shout “wow!” at him while doing terrible impressions, and he should have to react as Mobius with Tom Hiddleston deep in character as Loki right beside him. It would be incredible to see one of the most recognizable people in the world have to deadpan his way through impressions of himself, all while Loki laughs beside him. Plus, it would finally inject some levity in what has so far been a mostly dour and plot-heavy season of TV — save for O.B., of course.
Adding Owen Wilson’s canonical existence to Loki alongside the entirely separate but visually identical Mobius would technically do almost nothing for the general plotting or overall story. It wouldn’t even matter much to Loki season 2. But it would be extraordinarily funny, and at this point that would be a pretty massive win for the MCU and its foray into television, and one it should probably be grateful to take.

No one in Loki wanted to stop H.H. Holmes?
Loki season 2 is already in full swing. There’s a new Kang variant, a few intersecting plots that hold the fate of every universe in the balance, a lot of talk of the Sacred Timeline and pruning, and a time loom that controls the multiverse. Frankly, it’s all a little more than the formerly silly show about good pals Loki and Mobius can bear. But for just one second in Loki season 2’s third episode, we get a hint of a much more fun and interesting version of this season, thanks to a reference to one of America’s strangest serial killers: H.H. Holmes.

How The Disney Illusion Island Team Created One Of The Best Musical Scores Of The Year
Disney and developer Dlala Studios announced Disney Illusion Island in 2022, and it immediately shot up high on my list of games to play this year. It did so for several reasons – its beautifully realized visuals, top-notch voice acting, and, of course, the potential to play as some of my favorite characters in a Metroidvania-esque adventure. That wasn't all, though; The snippets of composer David Housden's score in the reveal trailer indicated this team was on to something.
