Hot on the heels of news that a “Rogue One” prequel series will help solidify their streaming service slate, Disney+ is also assembling a live-action series centered around a fan-favorite character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Loki, to star Tom Hiddleston.
The new projects join an impressive slate of films and series planned for Disney+ that includes new stories set in the worlds of Disney·Pixar’s ”Monsters Inc”. and Disney Channel’s ”High School Musical”, as well as a galaxy far, far away. Earlier this year, Lucasfilm revealed that Emmy(R)-nominated producer and actor Jon Favreau will write and executive produce ”The Mandalorian” for Disney+. The live-action series, which is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order, is currently in production with a lineup of directors that include Deborah Chow (”Marvel’s Jessica Jones”), Rick Famuyiwa (”Dope”), Dave Filoni (”Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels”), Bryce Dallas Howard (”Solemates”) and Taika Waititi (”Marvel Studios’ Thor: Ragnarok”).
