The much anticipated movie is out, and while Heimdall does star in Avengers: Age of Ultron, Loki is obviously absent.
In an interview with MTV, writer and director, Joss Whedon reveals what happened to Loki's expected appearance.
“Tom is not in the movie… Idris misspoke… twice,” Whedon said “We did shoot something and it didn’t play. The movie has so much, is so filled and we didn’t want it to feel overstuffed. I really wanted to have Loki in it but I understood the decision, ‘Now there are too many voices in the chorus.’ At some point the embarrassment of riches is actually embarrassing.”
