New Clip From Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers

USA Today has a new clip from the upcoming four episode mini series Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers.



Said Producer Ruwan Jayatilleke of story:

"You get a very in-depth look at why Loki feels he is the way he is, and maybe people's perception of him being evil is more of him being a misunderstood character. As opposed to Loki spending the whole book soliloquizing how wronged he was and so forth, you become sympathetic and empathetic to him. Although Thor is portrayed in this story as not being a hero, there's a fair amount of questioning into what motivates him, what motivates Odin and Sif and Balder, this group of Asgardians that Loki feels have been persecuting him and that have set up this scenario from his birth that he's the foil for Thor. Rightfully or wrongfully, he sets about to upturn the system and change the status quo.

"Some mainstream fans are instantly going to see the character and say, 'OK, that's the bad guy because I know Thor is the good guy.' It's interesting to have these stories not so much to deconstruct the superhero genre, but to look at how these characters eclipse just being heroes and villains. They have real motivations and ideas beyond just having agendas of 'I want to rule the world, ha ha ha.' That works in a lot of stories — I just don't think it works in this one."
