Sounds a little far afield. I’m thinking they may go more in the Loki, Agent of Asgard direction. That would explain the casting calls for young and teen boys to possibly play a Kid Loki at various point in his development. However, at this point I am wondering how much actor Tom Huddleston will be in this TV show or later films.

Marvel isn’t letting the grass grow under them when it comes to creating new content for Disney Plus. WandaVision has just completed production, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is well into filming and work on Loki has just begun. Tom Hiddleston will return as the God of Mischief for his own solo vehicle at last and these new photos from the shoot in an as-yet unknown location reveal our first look at him on set.

Hiddleston is immediately recognizable as the character in these images, thanks to his slicked-back dark long hair, which is Loki’s signature. However, you’ll quickly note that he’s not sporting his typical Asgardian attire and is instead wearing a very Earthly suit. There’s an emblem on his jacket as well which appears to be the same one that’s on the uniforms of the soldiers surrounding him in these pics. It’s impossible to make out here, but we’re pretty sure that, if we could read the logo, it would reveal the presence of the Time Variance Authority.

Apparently the actress that plays judith in walking dead is in Loki.

In some of the leaked Loki set photos, there’s a picture of a school bus with Roxxcart Evacuation Shuttle banner sign on it. Beside it is a shopping cart also with Roxxcart on it. Behind it is what might be a grocery called Roxxcart. See here.   Last pix in the attached article. 

Is this a subsidiary of Roxxon Energy Corp? 



From Wikipedia: 

Marvel Cinematic Universe[edit]
Roxxon was featured in four films and five television shows that take place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Films

In the 2008 film Iron Man, the Roxxon logo appears briefly on a background building during the climactic fight with Iron Monger.

In Iron Man 2, one of the cars at the Monaco Grand Prix is sponsored by Roxxon and is among the ones destroyed by Ivan Vanko.

In A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer, a Marvel One-Shot from the Captain America: The First Avenger Blu-ray release, Phil Coulson stops at Roxxon's gas station on the way to Albuquerque, New Mexico where the events of the Thor film take place.

Iron Man 3 revealed that Roxxon's Norco tanker was responsible for an oil spill and that no fat cat was held responsible, despite Matthew Ellis's possible efforts. Roxxon accountant Thomas Richards (portrayed by Tom Virtue) is held captive by the Mandarin and is "executed" on a live broadcast (which was actually a staged execution).[93] The film's climax also has Roxxon's impounded Norco tanker, in which Aldrich Killian planned to have Ellis (as Iron Patriot) executed around.

Television[edit]
Roxxon has been alluded to in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. In "Repairs", a Roxxon-branded gas station in Batesville, Utah is briefly visible in the opening scene. It was destroyed by Tobias Ford when the clerk Taylor threatened Hannah Hutchins (a StatiCorp safety inspector who was blamed for the explosion at StatiCorp's Particle Acceleration Complex that Tobias had caused). In "T.R.A.C.K.S.", Roxxon's Cybertek division is featured supplying Ian Quinn with the Project Deathlok leg to be placed on Mike Peterson.

In "Ragtag", Roxxon subsidiaries, the Brand Corporation and the Metrobank, are name-dropped in filing cabinets maintained by Cybertek through which Agent Phil Coulson is browsing. It was shown that Cybertek was behind Project Deathlok where John Garrett was classified in the Project Deathlok files as Subject 0. Coulson and Agent Melinda May end up stealing the entire file cabinet with information on Project Deathlok.[94] In "Beginning of the End", the Cybertek Manufacturing Facility's director Kyle Zeller (portrayed by Josh Daugherty) introduces a new employee to the job at the Cybertek systems, showing their control over the team of soldiers ready to take on Coulson's team in Havana, Cuba. Following the Deathlok soldiers' defeat, Garrett and Hydra push ahead with their plans causing Coulson's team to storm the Cybertek Manufacturing Facility.

While Agents Coulson and Antoine Triplett fight the Deathlok soldiers in an armored truck, Agents Skye and May infiltrate the Cybertek Manufacturing Facility and take Zeller hostage using the intended effect of which gives the super-soldiers new orders to abandon Coulson and protect Garrett. Skye later finds Hydra's hold on Zeller where there is a holding area where Hydra is holding Zeller's wife as well as Ace Peterson whom Skye manages to free. In "The Good Samaritan", it is revealed that Roxxon had acquired Isodyne Energy in 1952. In "Principia", it is revealed that Roxxon's Cybertek division was shut down following Garrett's defeat and that ex-S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy student Tony Caine used a motive similar to Operation Paperclip to fake the deaths of the scientists who were coerced into working for Hydra at Cybertek and signed their death certificates under the alias Murray Jacobson. One scientist (Joseph Getty) was approached by Alphonse McKenzie and Caine about the Gravitonium's location that Hydra had him be the chief researcher of.[95]

Roxxon is alluded to in the Agent Carter live action series. In "Now is Not the End", a refinery owned by Roxxon Oil Corporation is shown as the location where Howard Stark's destructive Nitramene chemical is being made by Leviathan servants in collaboration with Roxxon employee Miles Van Ert (portrayed by James Urbaniak). Peggy Carter managed to infiltrate the building, getting the first hint from Leviathan operative Leet Brannis. The Roxxon Refinery was destroyed by the Nitramene's implosion where the vacuum that followed left the building, some vehicles, and parts of the road into a large ball. In "Bridge and Tunnel", Roxxon Oil Corporation's president Hugh Jones had a meeting with Deputy Director Roger Dooley and Agent Jack Thompson of the Strategic Scientific Reserve (S.S.R.) regarding the explosion.

It was concluded that whoever was responsible would emit Vita-Rays as Jones knew about the Nitramene formula through corporate espionage in Stark Industries. They scanned the Roxxon employees which led to Van Ert's arrest after Peggy's interception during Dooley and Thompson's chase. In "A View in the Dark", Jones appears as a member of the Council of Nine representing Roxxon; Hugh and Thomas Gloucester tell Calvin Chadwick that the Isodyne Program should be shut down after recent events and that Calvin should focus on a senatorial campaign. In "The Atomic Job", Peggy had to infiltrate Roxxon's branch in Los Angeles, California to look for a key to one of Roxxon's facilities where some atomic bombs were being held. As Jones kept remembering Peggy, Peggy had to keep using the Memory Inhibitor on Jones until Peggy found the key in Hugh's belt. Later on, Peggy alongside Edwin Jarvis and the S.S.R. members had to infiltrate the Roxxon facility to steal some rods from within two atomic bombs where they had to compete with Whitney Frost's group to get to the objects first.

Roxxon is alluded to in the live-action Daredevil series. In "Nelson v. Murdock", a flashback shows Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson interning at Landman & Zack who are suing a man who developed cancer while working for Roxxon's plant, claiming he revealed proprietary secrets.[96] In "Kinbaku", Elektra Natchios breaks into their systems to gain information. It is later revealed that Roxxon is associated with The Hand.

Roxxon is alluded to in the live-action Iron Fist series. In "Felling Tree with Roots", Harold Meachum informs his son that The Hand were using Roxxon to move Madame Gao's drug supply.

Roxxon appears in the first season of the live action Cloak & Dagger series. Nathan Bowen was a worker at Roxxon Gulf Platform. Nathan gets a call about what's happening at Roxxon Gulf Platform, telling the person on the call's other end to shut the oil rig down. Roxxon Gulf Rig collapses which causes energies to be released, playing a part in Tandy Bowen and Tyrone Johnson getting superhuman abilities.[97] Roxxon Gulf's CEO is revealed to be Peter Scarborough (portrayed by Wayne Péré), a greedy man who Tandy (posing as an intern) discovers that was responsible for Nathan's defaming. Tandy herself meets employee Mina Hess (portrayed by Ally Maki) who is an environmentalist.[98] Her father Ivan Hess (portrayed by Tim Kang) was a partner of Nathan who had become catatonic and was hospitalized since the Roxxon Gulf Platform collapsed.[99] Ivan is eventually cured of the trauma by Tyrone and Tandy and is reunited with Mina.[100] Later, Tandy and Mina confront Scarborough who reveals that he was well aware of the energy hiding underneath Roxxon Gulf Platform and had hired the assassin Ashlie (portrayed by Vanessa Motta) to dispose of anyone who got too close. Eventually, Tandy's powers put Scarborough in the same catatonic state as Ivan once was in. Scarborough is later found by Ashlie.[101]

In Marvel's Runaways, a Roxxon sign appears on a building in the episode "Past Life" stating that Roxxon's Hollywood offices will be opening soon.

Oscar nominee and internet’s best movie reviewer Richard E. Grant has joined the cast of the Loki series on Disney+, according to The Wrap. Tom Hiddleston reprises his role as the MCU’s resident trickster god, picking up after the events of Avengers: Endgame. No specifics yet on how Grant will fit in, but he’s the latest addition to a cast that now includes Owen Wilson, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and Sophia Di Martino.

Ricky & Morty writer Michael Waldron will serve as showrunner on the series, while Sex Education director Kate Herron is set to direct the six-episode first season. Beyond that, we don’t know a whole ton about Loki, other than the fact it’s gonna’ hop around time with at least one pitstop in 1975.

This is exciting. I can see Grant as an older Loki.

Apparently production on Loki stopped.

This show and the Hawkeye one are my least anticipated Marvel Studios projects they have announced thus far.

Why?

Because they both revolve around characters that are actually done in the MCU imo. Hawkeye has never been that interesting to me. And Loki... He had his arc. Just like RDJ's Iron Man. What can they really have to add?

But I will still watch them and my excitement is probably going through the roof once the first trailers hit.

I’m interested to see where they take the characters. I’m Team Loki (love Hawkeye too) so I make no bones about my interests, but I see your point. However, unlike Loki, Hawkeye’s character doesn’t present a lot of opportunities for wild developments. He never has had any real superpowers to date other than being an expert marksman or a buttload of money to build a superpower suit.

Holy moly, are they actually going to fully embrace the Viking roots of the Norse myths with this show?
