Marvel's Disney+ Loki has put front a major turning point of the MCU introducing the Multiverse and Kang the Conqueror. One of the most shocking reveals in the whole season was the constant introduction of different Loki Variants. Variants of the god of Mischief like Kid Loki, Alligator Loki, Boastful Loki, Classic Loki, President Loki certainly makes it less crazy to think of the possibilities of presence of variants of different other characters of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Loki Episode 5 "Journey Into Mystery" introduced to fans these different variants of Loki who were pruned by the TVA and now stuck in the Void. Revealing these various versions of Loki was a crazy idea by the production team but it seems the team had another bonkers idea which didn't make out to the final cut.
Loki Head Writer and Executive Producer Michael Waldron, in an interview with CinemaBlend, when asked about different ideas of that episode in the Void, shared a crazier plot which was in the original script but was later on removed from the final cut. Michael Waldron said,
Tom Kaufman wrote Episode 5 of the show. Tom's a Rick and Morty writer; he was there from the first season Rick and Morty. He's one of my great friends, and one of the funniest people alive. And his first draft of that script had so much amazing stuff. I think there was, at one point, a Loki Variance Authority, like an LVA, with all the different Lokis who were down there.
He shared further details regarding the first draft of the script of Episode 5,
He'd written a great thing, like an 'I am Spartacus' sort of thing, where Loki goes to talk to Alioth. It's like Loki is going to do the heroic thing, and then all of the other Loki starts standing up trying to do the same thing, and it's just narcissists. Everybody's trying to be the hero, and it just ends up being a disaster. His first draft is one for the ages.
A full authority of Lokis might seem familiar to some fans, specially to the ones who have watched Rick and Morty. Rick and Morty had bunch of episodes connected to "Council of Ricks" which similarly had loads of Ricks together forming this council. Taking idea from that, an authority formed by Loki would definitely have been a treat for fans to watch.
Tom Hiddleston has promised more surprises for Season 2 as it has been confirmed. It is possible that the scrapped ideas might return for the next season, or possibly using the authority idea to implement live-action Council of Kangs. Whatever it is, as promised by the star himself, the season 2 will surely feature interesting multiversal plots to surprise fans yet again.
Loki full season is streaming exclusively on Disney+.
