"We all wanted to retain the integrity of the character — I wanted to make sure we didn’t lose the bits that people loved, while doing something new," Tom said in an interview with the Guardian.
He added that he hoped Loki's coming out as multi-attracted "was meaningful to people who spotted it."
"It was a small step, and there’s further to go," Tom shared, adding that the entire team consideration it was "important" to include.
Loki's director, Kate Herron, also previously said it was her goal "to acknowledge Loki was bisexual," and she hoped that it could be discussed further in the future.
With Season 2 on the way, only time will tell if Loki's sexuality gets a larger storyline in the series!
