Teletubbies Actually Inspired Parts of Loki
Loki director Kate Herron actually explained how the children’s TV series inspired the Marvel Disney+ show. Episode 5, in particular, drew some parallels between the preschool favorite and The Void in Loki. Herron spoke to For All Nerds TV about that nod and how thrilled she was that the cast just decided to go with it.
“I haven’t spoken about this yet, but the Teletubbies reference — it was Episode 5,” Herron shared. “I wanted The Void to feel like kind of an overgrown garden because it’s like this forgotten place. Essentially, I had pitched the British countryside because it looks a lot like that, but I remember talking to ILM, who we were making the effects with, and they were like, ‘Well, what are you thinking?’ I just couldn’t think, and I was just like, ‘Oh my god, you know what it is? It’s like the Teletubbies, it’s like rolling hills of dystopia, and that’s what we’re going for.’ But it’s not sunny, it’s got this kind of mist. And that’s how the Teletubbies got into the show. Luckily they went with it.”
