In the lead-up toLokiseason 2,which had its release date confirmed alongsidethe new Disney Plus showEcho,it’s been revealed that the physical media release will contain special content for fans, including an interesting surprise in the form ofThorstar Hemsworth making a cameo in one of the first season’s deleted scenes. The cameo role is as the mightiest form of his iconic character, Throg the frog, with the official description for the deleted scene viaThe Directreading, “Mobius reviews some moments from Loki’s timeline, in which Frog Thor makes an appearance during Loki’s coronation.”
Hemsworth, who has always maintained that he wanted tostay in the MCU afterThor: Love and Thunder,was revealed to have recorded voice lines for the character of Throg byLokidirector Kate Herron. While the character did appear in Loki season 1 without speaking lines, Herron insisted it was great that they got Hemsworth to record new dialogue instead of recycling lines. Series composer Natalie Holt even composed a grand score for the Throg’s deleted moment.
This scene will be a treat for fans, especially those wonderingif Loki will ever meet Thor againin the MCU. While it may not be a proper on-screen reunion, a sprinkle of the on-screen chemistry that made fans give the otherwise wretched Loki a chance is sure to brighten anyone’s day.

This is good news for Marvel Studios, as withLokiseason 2 already looking better thanSecret Invasion, it might be a solid avenue to bounce back from a lackluster period.
