Loki director dismisses fan theory about one Loki variant ahead of final episode
Fans are questioning the true identity of the TVA's Hunter B-15.
Loki director Kate Herron has dismissed claims that Hunter B-15 is secretly another Loki variant, after a now-deleted tweet stirred up suspicion over a potential plot twist.
Lovecraft Country star Wunmi Mosaku plays the ruthlessly effective TVA agent, who turned against the organisation after an enchantment by Sylvie showed her she used to have a different life.
We're yet to see exactly what that involved but B-15 has stated that she was "happy" and burned bridges with her otherworldly employers when she helped Loki and Sylvie to expose the fraudulent Time-keepers.
In the lead up to the Loki season one finale, a Canada-based account linked to Marvel Studios tweeted four images with the caption: "Ladies and gentlemen... The Lokis."
The post sparked discussion among fans as one of the characters pictured was Hunter B-15, with some quick to proclaim this an unintended leak of a revelation to come in this week's Loki episode six.

That prompted Herron to step in and calm things down, quoting the mistaken tweet and saying: "I did not know this was #HunterB-15['s] past. Another twist!"
She added in a follow-up comment: "Also in case it isn't clear I'm 100% joking".
We last saw Hunter B-15 incarcerated in the Time Variance Authority headquarters after going rogue, with Judge Renslayer (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) briefly attempting to interrogate her to little success.
Fortunately, with Agent Mobius (Owen Wilson) on his way back to the TVA after getting hold of a TemPad device, it's possible the two could team up to bring the place down from the inside.
Hunter B-15 is not a character from the original Marvel comic books, so fans will be watching closely for clues about her fate in the Loki series finale.
