“That’s not the specific story we’re telling. I think the story we’re telling isn’t necessarily about gender fluidity, but that Sylvie is a variant of Loki, but she’s Sylvie, a character and a person in her own right,” she added.

%u201CIt really helped me because you can’t really understand a person deeply until you know their story and what they’ve been through. It was super important for me to know exactly what’s happened, why she’s so angry, and what this mission that she has is all about. I’m excited for you to learn a little bit more about that too,%u201D said Sophia.
