In other media

(L–R): Owen Wilson, Ke Huy Quan, and Matthew Macfadyen have played different separate characters based on Mobius and his clones

Numerous iterations of Mobius M. Mobius and his clones appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), portrayed by Owen Wilson, Ke Huy Quan, and Matthew Macfadyen, depicted as separate individual "variants" instead of identical clones of the same character.

Mobius

Mobius appears in the television series Loki (2021–2023), portrayed by Owen Wilson.^[9]^[10]^[11]^[12]^[13] In the episode "Science/Fiction", Mobius is revealed to be a temporal variant of Don, a jet ski salesman and single father-of-two, who also cameos in the series finale "Glorious Purpose".
Mobius makes a cameo appearance in the post-credits scene of the film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023), portrayed again by an uncredited Owen Wilson,^[14] in a scene taken from the then-unreleased episode "1893".

O.B.

Ouroboros "O.B." appears in the second season of Loki (2023), portrayed by Ke Huy Quan.^[15]^[16] The chief engineer of the Time Variance Authority, who deals with the maintenance and repair of all the complex tools, including time travel devices. In the episode "Science/Fiction", O.B. is revealed to be a temporal variant of Dr. A.D. Doug, a failed science fiction author and theoretical physics teacher at Caltech in 1994 who would rather focus on his writing than on science.

Mr. Paradox

Mr. Paradox appears in Deadpool & Wolverine (2024), portrayed by Matthew Macfadyen. A agent of the TVA seeking to become its leader^[17]^[18] to revert the organization back to its old ways, who has been assigned to oversee the slowly disintegrating, Earth-10005, due to the death of its "anchor being", Wolverine. Growing frustrated with the process and TVA new status quo of not pruning, he created a timeline-killing device known as a "Time Ripper" to mercy-kill the timeline. He extracts Deadpool to offer him a place on Earth-616 but Deadpool refuses and steals his TemPad to travel the multiverse in search of a Wolverine variant to prevent his world's destruction; he eventually brings a variant to the TVA, but Paradox labels him the "worst" Wolverine in the multiverse as he let down his entire world and prunes both of them which sends them to the Void where they meet Charles Xavier's sister Cassandra Nova, the self-declared ruler of the Void. Paradox’s plan is eventually exposed when his sleeper agent Pyro attempts to kill Nova, who then travels to Earth-10005 to capture Paradox and takes control of the Time Ripper to destroy all timelines except for the Void. After Deadpool and Wolverine destroys the Time Ripper, which also kills Nova, Paradox is arrested by his superior Hunter B-15.

Growing frustrated with the process and TVA new status quo of not pruning, he created a timeline-killing device known as a "Time Ripper" to mercy-kill the timeline. He extracts [[Wade Wilson (film character)|Deadpool]] to offer him a place on [[Marvel Cinematic Universe|Earth-616]] but Deadpool refuses and steals his TemPad to travel the [[Multiverse (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|multiverse]] in search of a Wolverine variant to prevent his world's destruction; he eventually brings a variant to the TVA, but Paradox labels him the "worst" Wolverine in the multiverse as he let down his entire world and prunes both of them which sends them to the Void where they meet Charles Xavier's sister [[Cassandra Nova]], the self-declared ruler of the Void. Paradox’s plan is eventually exposed when his sleeper agent Pyro attempts to kill Nova, who then travels to Earth-10005 to capture Paradox and takes control of the Time Ripper to destroy all timelines except for the Void. After Deadpool and Wolverine destroys the Time Ripper, which also kills Nova, Paradox is arrested by his superior Hunter B-15.
