We have all had our own theories about Loki Season 2 but there is finally a wild one that could confirm a major Fantastic Four connection!
Loki Season 2 picks up from the aftermath of Season 1, exploring the adventures of Tom Hiddleston's Loki and Owen Wilson's Mobius as they navigate the mysteries of the Time Variance Authority. Additionally, this season has introduced new elements to the MCU, including a new Kang Variant Victor Timely, played by Jonathan Majors. Furthermore, it possibly unearthed a secret plot involving Ravonna Renslayer and Miss Minutes, with the promise of a game-changing revelation in the recent episode.
The burning question is, what could this secret be? While numerous theories have been proposed, one intriguing idea connects Renslayer to the Fantastic Four, hinting at the team's imminent debut in the MCU.
The Reddit theory posits that Loki's Renslayer could have a connection to Kang the Conqueror and the Fantastic Four. It draws inspiration from a Marvel Comics storyline where Valeria Richards, the daughter of Fantastic Four members Reed Richards and Sue Storm, was bioengineered into Renslayer who is conceived as Kang's perfect companion. This narrative was orchestrated by the infamous Doctor Doom, who aimed to manipulate Kang into merging with him. Loki Season 2 might potentially adapt this storyline to link Renslayer to the Fantastic Four.
Loki Season 2 Might Change Renslayer's Original Comic Storyline
Miss Minutes' tantalizing secret, set to reshape Renslayer's perspective and her role within the MCU, has sparked the most popular theory that she was Kang's former lover, mirroring the comics. However, if the show decides to reveal Renslayer as a version of Valeria Richards, it would significantly deepen her character and possibly serve as a prelude to the MCU debut of the Fantastic Four in Phase 6.
The Fantastic Four, often referred to as the FF, are a team of intrepid explorers who found themselves bestowed with incredible abilities following an unforeseen encounter with cosmic radiation during a fateful space mission aboard the Marvel-1 spacecraft. The extraordinary quartet consists of the brilliant scientist Reed Richards, who is renowned as Mister Fantastic, his partner in science and life, Sue Storm, initially known as the Invisible Girl, her spirited younger brother Johnny Storm, who ignites as the fiery Human Torch, and their steadfast friend Ben Grimm, who possesses immeasurable strength and resilience as the Thing.
Loki is known for its bold storytelling, so it's not entirely far-fetched that the Marvel Cinematic Universe's First Family might receive some form of reference in Season 2. Marvel fans are eagerly anticipating how these mysteries and connections will unfold, and whether they will lead to the arrival of the Fantastic Four in the MCU's next phase.
Loki Season 2 Episode 4 will premiere on Disney+ on October 26, 2023.
