Loki director Kate Herron has defended the show’s LGBTQ+ representation in response to Russell T Davies’ criticism. Back in 2021, the highly anticipated series following Asgard’s God of Mischief premiered on Disney+.
Upon its release, the show was met with critical acclaim, with many Marvel fans praising the show for its unique story and Tom Hiddleston’s performance.
Aside from its exploration of multiversal travel, one of the biggest aspects of the show that fans enjoyed was Loki’s landmark coming out moment.
In the third episode, the beloved demigod opened up about his past relationships with his variant Sylvie and admitted he’d been romantically involved with both ‘princesses and princes’ – reflecting the character’s fluid sexuality from the comics.
