Loki season 2 introduces the audience to a lovable character who goes by Ouroboros or “OB.” But who is this new character, and which actor plays him? Here’s all you need to know about OB, aka Ouroboros, and the actor playing the part in the MCU.
Who is Ouroborous in Loki Season 2?
Ouroboros is the TVA’s Repairs and Advancement expert who works in the “R & A” division.
He is someone who works tirelessly to fix what’s broken in the TVA. He is also the person to reach out for an advanced new gadget. He wrote the TVA guidebook that contains the “detailed index of every mechanical classification and maintenance routine in each sector, on each device and inside every computer program at the TVA.” Mobius apparently met him 400 years before the events of Loki season 1.
To summarize, he is the TVA’s prime tech guy who is aware of the intricate mechanisms of the organization. Hence, Mobius and Loki visit him to solve the latter’s time-slipping problem.
He builds them a Temporal Aura Extractor to solve Loki’s problem and shuts down the blast doors of the Temporal Loom to save the TVA from the consequences of branching timelines. It’s clear that he will have a crucial role to play to save the multiverse.
Which actor plays “OB” in Loki Season 2?
Ke Huy Quan plays OB, aka Ouroboros, in the second season of Loki.
Jonathan Ke Quan aka Ke Huy Quan is a Vietnamese-born Chinese-American actor and stunt choreographer. He made his first on-screen appearance in Steven Spielberg’s first Indiana Jones movie in 1984 when he was 12.
The recent reemergence of the 52-year-old happened with 2022’s multiverse-centric movie Everything Everywhere All At Once. His performance in the film won a lot of hearts. It also won him an Oscar in the best supporting actor category. As a result, his role in Loki Season 2 was highly anticipated by the fans.
