Captain America Teased Loki"s Big Power Upgrade 11 Years Ago

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Loki season 2.
Summary

• Loki's power upgrade in Loki season 2 was foreshadowed in The Avengers, where Captain America hinted at his destiny as one of the most powerful heroes in the MCU.
• In the finale of Loki season 2, Loki took on the responsibility of protecting the multiverse, showcasing his control over time and magic.
• Despite the conclusion of Loki's journey in the MCU, there is potential for his return in future projects, including Phase 6's crossover events, and variants of Tom Hiddleston's character could also return.

Captain America foreshadowed the God of Mischief's major Loki season 2 power upgrade back in Phase 1 of the MCU. 2012's The Avengers saw Tom Hiddleston's Loki return despite his apparent demise at the end of 2011's Thor, making his way to Earth to battle the original Avengers team in an effort to take over the world. Since Loki's plan involved getting captured by the new Avengers and SHIELD, the God of Mischief surrendered himself to Steve Rogers' Captain America and Tony Stark's Iron Man after an altercation in Stuttgart, Germany. However, this interaction may have also teased Loki's destiny as one of the most powerful heroes in the MCU.
Over the duration of Phase 5's Loki season 2, Tom Hiddleston's God of Mischief learned to control his time-slipping ability, granting him the power to travel between the past, present, and future at will. This already set Loki up as one of the most important characters in the MCU, but Loki season 2's finale saw him task himself with protecting the infinite branches of the multiverse, using his magic to sustain life across the cosmos. This was an incredibly satisfying destiny for the former villain, bringing his MCU story full-circle, but this fate for Loki may have been teased back during the Avengers' first adventure as a team.
