When Does Loki Season 2 Come Out
Spoilers for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Loki season 1 are underneath.
Whatever variation of Loki you encounter, wherever you encounter them, they all share one important characteristic: they will always make an effort to survive.
What about its Marvel TV incarnation, though? Does it possess the same enduring power as the God of Mischief? Or will it vanish into the multiverse, only to be resurfaced by viewers who desire it more than we do in a different dimension? As if it were even feasible!
We are here to help you, so don’t worry.
Here is all the information you need to know about Loki’s future.
When will Loki season 2 be available on Disney+?
Don’t worry, people! Loki will return for season two; this was announced in the first season’s end credits sequence, which aired in July 2021. The official launch date for Disney+ is October 6, 2023, without further ado. Don’t trust us? Insists Marvel Studios:
Hiddleston said of the initial confirmation, “I am so glad that we got to complete season one, I still am not quite able to fathom that we get to have another shot at this. The potential has me so fired up. We’ve already started talking. incredibly profound conversations. I’m eager to get going.
“I want to say thank you to the audience because without the audience, we wouldn’t be able to make a season two,” he stated. “I hope the first season has a lot of shocks. And I anticipate that season two will offer even more.
Just just don’t anticipate it to be more bizarre than season one, as even Loki himself would have difficulties pulling off such a prank.
Writer-producer of Loki Michael Waldron remarked, “We had an alligator drinking wine out of a kiddie pool,” according to Polygon. “That felt as strange as the pinnacle of Mount Everest! There are, in my opinion, numerous opportunities there.
Well, he is correct!
“We’re always looking to outdo ourselves, but hopefully it’s always driven by character,” he stated. And yes, as I once more discovered in [Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness], no notion is too wild. You might decide to shoot it if you write a scene in which Stephen Strange is in possession of his own corpse. That gives me courage, which is excellent.
Cast for Loki season 2: Who will appear?
As is customary for Marvel, it’s keeping details about Loki season two under wraps. Tom Hiddleston is obviously on board because, well, what is Loki without, well, Loki?
Season two was recorded in London, which suited the star of the show. Hiddleston added on Jimmy Kimmel Live, “I guess it was simply an accident of scheduling, but I’m pleased about it.
Along with returning for the second season, the complete cast was confirmed by the actor in the interview. This means more Casey, more Lady Loki, and possibly more alligators sipping wine from kiddie pools.
“Yes, yes, you can [look forward to more Casey],” Eugene Cordero stated (via CBR). You see, I’m not even sure, so I can’t [tease anything]. I have to enter so many passwords and passcodes just to view the pages I’m on, and the way it operates requires regular and significant changes.
“I’m eager to do more, and I’m not sure how I’ll be able to do so, but I’m eager to do it. So prepare yourself; I think it will be enjoyable. No, it will be; it will be wonderful.
As Ravonna Renslayer, Gugu Mbatha-Raw will also make a comeback. Although she acknowledged to not knowing what will happen to her character when she spoke to Digital Spy in December 2021.
“Honestly, I genuinely don’t know where it’s going,” she replied. Especially when dealing with time as Renslayer does, I believe there is so much potential. So, sure, I have no idea.
“I really haven’t…” I kind of maintain an open mind. Over the past five months, I’ve been working very hard on another project. So I’m not sure. I’m a little open to the following section. We shall see. Of sure, I’d be up for (a movie). At this moment, I’m not sure where it’s all headed, but we’ll see.
Mbatha-Raw told ET that filming the second season of Loki had been “amazing.” “The show is bolder and more weird, so [fans] are going to be in for a tremendous treat. And in many respects, which is really exciting, goes in some greater, bolder directions than season 1.
“Ravona is a strong presence in Loki. I’m quite happy that Renslayer successfully exits the TVA.
I’ve never experienced that before, walking onto a set where people already know your character, but that is what I discovered with Loki’s second season. Everyone on the crew is familiar with your role. That’s a pretty cool sensation.
We may also anticipate the following cast members to return in Loki season two given how season one concluded:
- Tara Strong provides Miss Minutes’s voice.
- As Mobius M Mobius, Owen Wilson
- As Sylvie, Sophia Di Martino
We are beyond thrilled that Wunmi Mosaku will be playing TVA Hunter B-15 once more after confirming this news as well. She said of the first season’s success: “It definitely gave us confidence. Coming home was just really pleasant.
“I don’t frequently return to a show. I believe I have only ever visited Vera once, and it was for just one episode.
She continued, “It was very wonderful to go back to season two and see everyone and be like, ‘Oh, we did this. Simply put, that was brand-new. I believe I felt a bit more… I believe my level of anxiety increased slightly.
“I hope we live up to season one, because… that obviously went down well, because we’re here at season two.”
Be prepared for Jack Veal to return as Kid Loki at some time, whether it’s in a Young Avengers initiative or a second season of Loki. It’s just a matter of time before Marvel’s legacy team debuts, and we’re hopeful that Kid Loki will be a part of it, just as in the comics, with so many members already lined up.
We’re not only wishing for that Loki to come back, though. With his brief but instantly recognizable portrayal of Classic Loki, complete with his Golden Age comic book attire, Richard E. Grant had a profound effect on fans. Grant informed ET that although though this variation gave his life to aid Sylvie and Loki in escaping The Void, his character might yet make a comeback in the future.
Everything is feasible, he declared. Grant also stated that he “wouldn’t say no” to returning, although not being sure how this would work after “going out with such a bang.”
“How do you top that if he had to come back, in my opinion, because his sacrifice is so great and it’s going out with such a bang? I am clueless. You know, doing that is beyond of my purview. But if you asked, I wouldn’t say no. Just say that.
Rafael Casal, the star of Blindspotting, has also been spotted on the set, but Marvel hasn’t confirmed his casting and he’s playing a secret part.
A villain has been cast in Game of Thrones, although Kate Dickie’s character’s identity is being withheld for the time being (surprise, surprise).
Dickie and Casal aren’t the only new cast members to have joined the show; it was also revealed that Oscar-winning actor and Everything Everywhere All at Once star Ke Huy Quan will also be playing an unspecified part.
Quan was unexpectedly brought out on stage by Feige in September during Disney’s annual D23 Expo. He also showed fans first looks at the upcoming season.
What about the photographer’s talent? Director Kate Herron previously told Collider that she was still primarily focused on season one when asked if she was eager to return.
“I believe that I have been so engrossed in this subject for the past two years that I am just so focused on it. I believe I gave the program everything I had, including my time and soul, and I believe that’s where my emphasis is right now.
It’s a big matter that Kate has subsequently announced her departure before the second season because she and Michael Waldron both contributed significantly to the development of this show.
She gave The Hollywood Reporter an explanation for her choice, stating that she “always intended just to do these six [episodes]”.
“We were treating it like a movie, and we were running it like a movie,” Herron said. We weren’t carrying it out according to the approved system. It took a lot of work to direct these six episodes, but I gave it all I had—my strength, my spirit, and my emotions. I threw at it everything I cherished about Marvel.
“I just feel like my part is done,” she stated, “but I’m really excited to see where it’s going to go next.”
The biggest question mark now hovering over the MCU hasn’t been addressed: Jonathan Majors was anticipated to make a comeback in the MCU, particularly in Loki, as either Kang the Conqueror or a different character like He Who Remains from season one.
However, the actor’s future at the family-friendly Disney corporation has become uncertain since his arrest on a charge of assault and harassment, along with additional accusations made against him by other women (all of which he categorically denies), which may be why the second season is now set to premiere in October rather than the originally planned summer. Before Majors’ court case on August 3rd, Marvel has not yet released a statement and is not likely to do so.
What will the subject matter of Loki season 2 be?
Season one ended with a catastrophic event that established multiverses, as was to be predicted. Many people hypothesized that it also built up Wanda’s role in the movie and the pandemonium of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The Scarlet Witch is a Nexus Being, which would have made a great connection between the two.
The multiverse and its effects were later demonstrated in the December 2021 film Spider-Man: No Way Home, in which Doctor Strange used a spell gone awry to bring heroes, villains, and many character variations through to our universe. They were consequently all residing in the same timeline.
However, the publication of Doctor Strange has subsequently disproved those notions, much like Wanda’s efforts to eradicate America Chavez. Loki’s events didn’t even shown in the post-credits scene.
In a recent interview with Deadline, Dr. Strange and Loki’s screenwriter, Michael Waldron, outlined his justification for keeping the two distinct. Waldron remarked, in reference to Kang’s absence in Doctor Strange: “To me, it felt like we had the biggest, best bullet in Wanda.
“When working with Sam (Raimi), I said we should really make the decision to make Wanda the antagonist in this film, we can’t let another movie have that fun.”
“When working with Sam (Raimi), I said we should really make the decision to make Wanda the antagonist in this film, we can’t let another movie have that fun.”
It makes perfect sense to want to give Wanda some breathing room so she can do her thing. But what does that imply for Kang and his intergalactic activities?
The scriptwriter stated during conversations over Kang’s narrative involvement in season two: “For me, the sole reason for making the program in the first place is that we can find a new tale to tell with this character.
“It appeared that we needed to cover fresh emotional terrain with Loki. Season two can only be accessed in that way. That was definitely discovered. The tale is continuing in a fantastic way, feeling different from season one, and perhaps defying expectations.
Loki is still dealing with Sylvie’s treachery and the consequences of what she did.
An unlimited number of Kang’s (He Who Remains) clones will emerge after his death and seize power over the multiverse. With the arrival of Kang’s statue, we’ve already witnessed that happening in “our” Time Variance Authority. As previously mentioned, Jonathan Majors’ legal status throws all Kang business into doubt, although it is certain that he will play a significant role in season two.
A council of innumerable Kangs celebrates Kang the Conqueror’s ‘death’ after being dragged into his ship’s enormous core in the mid-credits scene of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. You can read about the entire thing here (it’s a big deal).
If someone can stop the flow of versions that are set to spill out of the multiverse, the other Kangs will cause some trouble even though the Conqueror may have vanished. Will Kang be eliminated by the Marvel top squad as a boss-level enemy before starting over? Or recast utilizing a convoluted plot line? Time will only tell.
We do know that Loki and Mobius are making a comeback, and Mobius, bless Odin, has somehow either regained his memory, gotten to know this Loki, or is a variation who is already aware of all the commotion. They are in agreement in whatever scenario.
The two are watching some sort of highly intriguing show in the 1900s where they have ended up. Victor Timely, a familiar-looking man, has entered the stage and is captivating the audience with his discussion about time manipulation.
The Kang variant is timely. This Kang made his first appearance in Avengers Annual No. 21 and is the Kang that traveled back to Wisconsin in 1901 to found Timely Industries, the business that developed the technology that made it possible for him to travel across time.
However, it is claimed that this Timely Kang is actually the Conqueror and not merely one of the other Kangs.
Therefore, it is very possible that Loki and Mobius are devising a strategy that involves locating Kang the Conqueror and possibly halting him before he can unleash the horrors foretold by He Who Remains. It presents a challenge for Marvel.
It turns out that the Quantumania scene is the first glimpse we have of Loki season two.
In an interview with ET, Reed explained that “the final tag” was actually a condensed version of a scene from Loki’s second season.
Victor Timely, of course,” Reed remarked. “I was whisked by the set when they were shooting that and I just loved his Frederick Douglass hair and his whole sort of period, the intonation of his voice and everything.”
“It really was to sort of tease the audience with the idea of like, ‘In Phase Five, you’re going to meet a lot of different variants.'”
It seemed logical to somewhat adapt [Kang] for that since the MCU has been moving toward these multiversal themes. It made sense from the beginning while they were creating Loki and we were creating this movie because it fit with what was going to happen in Loki.
Even though he kept his cards very close to his chest, Hiddleston provided some meaty season two context in a prior interview at the MCM London Comic-Con.
“OK so look, we can’t say anything unfortunately, but at the end of episode six, season one, Loki comes back to TVA,” Hiddleston stated.
He tries to explain what occurs to Mobius [Owen Wilson], but Mobius doesn’t recognize him because he is highly traumatized and upset. He then turns to face the statue of the Timekeepers, but it is actually a statue of someone else and not the Timekeepers. And I suppose we’ll begin there.
“Season two is kind of a challenge of a question asked of the [Time Variance Authority] itself,” Hiddleston added (via CBR). “A battle for the soul of the TVA.”
Ke Huy Quan stated in the same interview that the second season’s plot is “really good” and that he can’t wait for viewers to see it. Same!
Although it’s possible that director Kate Herron won’t be returning for season two (and whoever steps in will be a tough act to follow), she does have some ideas for where the plot might go next (via The Hollywood Reporter).

The TVA exists outside of space and time, according to how I picture the situation in my thoughts, yet reality as we previously knew it has entirely changed recently. How can we know the TVA is still there with the multiverse branching?
We are unsure, and I assume it is a significant question that will be resolved as the play progresses. However, in my head, Sylvie intends to send Loki back to the TVA, but due to the way time and the branches outside the window are interacting, Loki has unluckily been sent somewhere else entirely.
“So reality has shifted just by the nature of what He Who Remains said, and the idea is that he’s in this alternate TVA now.”
Actually, that’s a brilliant idea, and it could keep the program continuing for as long as Doctor Who (or, at the very least, Sliders). Let’s hope Herron left thorough notes for whoever takes her post.
And don’t even imagine for a second that Sylvie won’t be appearing again. The Goddess of Mischief was at Kang’s Citadel when we last saw her, weighing the consequences of her decision. But given that she now has a TemPad, anticipate Sylvie to reappear shortly. Will she, however, be an ally or an enemy? Or perhaps a lover? Before that betrayal, that kiss undoubtedly had a lot of emotional weight.
Maybe, just maybe, after the shocking revelation in episode three, we’ll get to witness “our” Loki fall in love with another man. It’s not necessary for bisexuals to exhibit same-sex attraction in order to be accepted, but since Marvel has historically shied away from such topics, Loki season two would be a good opportunity to confront the character’s queerness physically.
Herron responded, “Basically I don’t know plans for the future with Loki – I’m so focused on this story,” when Collider questioned her about this conceivable scenario. However, I would say that part of my reasoning was, “Well, if it’s canon and it’s acknowledged, then yeah, I hope there’s obviously more road to travel with that aspect of his personality.” And I really hope it’s opened the door to further stories.
Trailer for Loki season 2: When will new material be released?
In order to provide you with the most recent Loki season two trailer, we took advantage of the divide in the Sacred Timeline. Thank you very much.
The trailer, which debuted one month before the premiere of season two, features Loki glitching all over the place after shattering the holy timeline (definitely giving off an Across the Spider-Verse vibe).
He explains that he is “time slipping,” which is simply a way of saying that he is being tugged back and forth across time, and that this causes his dematerialization and rematerialization.
Following the initial teaser trailer, we also see more of Ke Huy Quan’s character from Everything Everywhere All at Once as well as fan favorites Mobius, Hunter B-15, and Sylvie.
The teaser trailer that was shown to an exclusive few at the September 2022 Disney D23 expo reached fans in July and also showed. Loki glitching in and out of time as he attempts to fix the calamity left behind in the season one finale.
Ke Huy Quan was featured alongside Wilson and Hiddleston as the mysterious TVA worker OB (though details about his character and what he does there remain thin for the time being).
As previously stated, it is unclear how prominently Majors would appear in light of the accusations leveled against him recently (which he has rejected). In the newest trailer, he only briefly appears.
The Loki both season two teaser trailers give us optimism that the second season’s narrative will be just as thrilling as the first, but we’ll let you decide when you’ve seen it.
The only place to watch Loki is on Disney+.
