Owen Wilson is now part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and in an important role.
The anticipated series Loki on Disney+ introduces a mysterious organization Time Variance Authority that seeks to correct any timelines that manages to splits off from the original timeline. Think of it as a Twilight Zone episode of a bureaucratic government agency coming on to clean up the mess by deleting and erasing mistakes.
Owen Wilson plays Mobius, an agent with the Time Variance Authority. He works with Loki to fend off a greater mysterious enemy. Throughout the series, Loki and Mobius play off well against each other nearly like a buddy cop comedy.
Disney+ released a nice featurette dedicated to Owen Wilson joining the MCU.
