    Disney+ Sets MCU-Themed Simpsons Short With Tom Hiddleston as Loki
    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    Disney+ has announced that a brand new animated short film for
    The Simpsons titled The Good, The Bart, and The Loki is
    officially heading to the streamer on Wednesday, July 7.
    The Marvel-themed short will feature the return of Marvel
    Cinematic Universe star Tom Hiddleston as he lends his voice to
    the animated version of the fan-favorite God of Mischief.
    Hiddleston is currently starring in Marvel Studios' Loki series,
    with the first four episodes already available for streaming on
    Disney+.

    This announcement also comes with the release of its official key
    poster, which you can check out below, featuring an Avenger:
    Endgame-inspired design with most of the Simpsons characters
    dressed as MCU heroes including Lisa as Thor, Millhouse as
    Hawkeye, and Ralph as The Hulk. It also features our first look
    at The Simpsons version of Loki.

    In The Good, The Bart, and The Loki, Loki is banished from Asgard
    once again and must face his toughest opponents yet: the Simpsons
    and Springfield's mightiest heroes. The God of Mischief teams up
    with Bart Simpson in the ultimate crossover event paying tribute
    to the Marvel Cinematic Universe of Super Heroes and villains.

    In addition to Hiddleston's Loki, he will also be joined by many
    fan-favorite characters from The Simpsons. The upcoming short is
    the second in a series of Disney+ shorts from The Simpsons that
    highlight the service's marquee brands and titles. The first one
    was a Star Wars-themed short titled Maggie Simpson in The Force
    Awakens from Its Nap which is now streaming on Disney+.

    Created by Matt Groening (Futurama, Disenchantment),
    The Simpsons has been on-air for more than 30 years and had
    become a pop-culture phenomenon. The voice cast consists of
    Dan Castellaneta as Homer Simpson, Julie Kavner as his wife
    Marge, Nancy Cartwright as Bart, and Yeardley Smith as Lisa.
