Loki Season 2: Story, Release Date & Everything We Know
Summary
- Loki season 2 is set to bring more time travel drama to the MCU, with the God of Mischief exploring and investigating the multiverse.
- The biggest tease for Loki season 2 came in the post-credits scene of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, indicating that Marvel Studios plans to expand the stories of secondary characters on Disney+.
- Loki season 2 is scheduled to release on October 5, 2023, with Tom Hiddleston returning as Loki and the majority of the season 1 cast reprising their roles. The season will consist of six episodes released every Thursday.
With Loki season 2 set to release as part of the MCU's Phase 5, more details have started to surface about the Disney+ show's upcoming second season. After meeting his demise at the hands of Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War, the Avengers' Time Heist in Endgame unleashed a variant of Tom Hiddleston's God of Mischief on the MCU, and Loki season 1 saw him exploring the world of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), and coming face-to-face with Jonathan Majors' He Who Remains. If the Loki season 1 ending cliffhanger is anything to go by, season 2 is set to bring another helping of time travel drama to the MCU.
So far, Loki is the only one of Marvel Studios' live-action Disney+ series' to be gifted a second outing, though the animated What If…? and Spider-Man: Freshman Year have also been confirmed for second seasons too. Loki's time travel and timeline-jumping allows for endless possibilities for season 2, particularly after the titular God of Mischief appeared to find himself in a new timeline at the end of Loki season 1 – one where the TVA is ruled over by Kang the Conqueror instead of He Who Remains. With season 1 unleashing the multiverse, Loki season 2's Phase 5 release date suggests the franchise will soon change drastically once again.
