Loki Season 2 Director Interview: Dan Deleeuw on Loki and Sylvie's Reunion
35Season 2 Episode 2 of Loki featured a jaunt into 1977 London, Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Mobius (Owen Wilson) taking turns interrogating the contentious X-5 (Rafael Casal), a visit to a 1982 McDonald's, and a fight to protect the branched timelines of the multiverse. It's a lot of separate stories to weave together, but that's exactly what Dan Deleeuw did in his directorial debut for TV. "Breaking Brad." The episode featured not only an official return for Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) but also a major fight sequence at the end of the scene that ended in tragedy for the multiverse.
Deleeuw is best known for his work on MCU projects like Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War where he served as the visual effects supervisor and the production visual effects supervisor. He was also the second unit director for Avengers: Endgame, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and Eternals. While he is also working in visual effects for Loki, Episode 2 marks his debut as a director. We spoke with Deleeuw about how he ended up with the job of directing this episode, breaking down the scene between Loki and Sylvie, collaborating with the other creators and actors of the series, and filming more complicated scenes like the fight with General Dox (Kate Dickie) or the scene with X-5 and the Time Cube.
