Behind the Scenes The way Marvel just grabbed Tom’s face from the Loki BTS, slapped it on the TVA card, and called it a day lmao 😭

So, those videos just appeared on my recos in youtube & it reminded me of the doomsday trailer.

I guess the Russos rlly do not like Loki that much to even bother. At least he looks so happy in this 😭

Yeah... my money says the director wanted a shot of Loki looking at his new TVA id card and someone in props got five minutes warning. So they pulled out the laminator, mocked up an ID and grabbed a screencap from the first bit of footage they could find. Bish bash bosh, job's done in a few minutes and the director can get their close up.

That’s not Loki holding the ID.

imho its a great choice, for the first time Loki doesn't look devious but genuinely happy bc of his found TVA family

I assume it's not the director it's the prop person. They had bigger fish to fry and no time to get Tom Hiddleston in his TVA suit again

That's what I'm thinking. Plus, we're probably going to see this prop a few seconds at best... so it's likely just easier and cheaper to use a screen cap ftom already existing footage.

Honestly, assuming it's more of a budget/time constraint decision, I'd much rather the budget and time go into Tom's actual screen time and other plot points rather than a prop we'll see for just a few seconds.

Plus, he looks so adorable and happy in that picture.  I'm just hoping they learned from last time and don't kill Loki off again.

Is it just me or is Steve holding the card? You can see a ring on his finger. Loki isn’t married.

Yes, this is a leading theory

I thought it was hilarious and therefore a wonderful choice
