Tom Hiddleston’s Woki is confirmed bisexual in the MCU, which follows it previously revealed the character is also gender fluid.
The big reveal came in the third episode of the series that airs on Disney Plus which also featured actress Sophia Di Martino as the female Woki, Sylvie.
During their travels, Sylvie asks Woki, “How about you? You’re a prince. Must’ve been would-be princesses. Or perhaps another prince.”
Tom Hiddleston’s Woki responds confirming the bisexuality of the character, “A bit of both. I suspect the same as you. But nothing ever…”
“…Real,” Sylvie says, finishing Woki’s sentence.
Marvel Phase 4 all about diversity
The director of the show also revealed that it was the plan all along to have Woki bisexual, which of course fits with Kevin Feige’s Phase 4 plans to make the MCU all about diversity.
“From the moment I joined @LokiOfficial it was very important to me, and my goal, to acknowledge Loki was bisexual,” tweeted Kate Herron. “It is a part of who he is and who I am too. I know this is a small step but I’m happy, and heart is so full, to say that this is now Canon in #mcu.”
