Marvel superstar Loki comes to The Fighting Cocks!
You might notice a familiar setting when watching Marvel series Loki...
In the latest instalment of Disney’s Loki TV series, eagle eyed rock fans might have spotted a familiar setting. Traveling through time to save the Time Variance Authority, Tom Hiddleston’s Loki catches up with old flame Sylvie in none other than Kingston’s The Fighting Cocks! Perched at the bar in the London rock pub and venue, the pair discuss their plans to save their friends and all of existence over a shot of bourbon. While the venue is decked out to fit the 1980s Oklahoma setting, viewers will spot the familiar bar, leopard print décor and pool table from the popular alternative haunt.
Filmed in August 2022, the team of The Fighting Cocks have remained tight-lipped about Hollywood coming to town, but are delighted the secret is now out. Co-owner Ali Barnwell said “As huge Marvel fans, we were over the moon to welcome the team to film at the pub. Keeping the secret has been so tough, but now we can proudly say The Fighting Cocks is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!”. The excited team are already thinking about how to commemorate the god of mischief’s visit, including a plaque marking his now infamous seat. So, if you’re in town, why not pop on by to share in a slice of Tinseltown magic and maybe a bourbon of your own!
