Loki Season 2: Production Start Date Revealed

Avatar photoByLukas Abramovich Published on

With the release of Moon Knight, Marvel Cinematic Universe currently spawned six Disney+ shows, and only two of them were officially renewed for the second season — the animated series What If…? and Loki. The first season aired last summer, and the second season was confirmed in the post-credit scene of the season 1 finale. Although we will wait quite a while for the next season, the good news is that the second season is set to begin filming on June 6 in London, as the Production List confirmed.

Tom Hiddleston debuted as Loki in the first Thor movie back in 2011, and since then he became one of the most known fan-favorite characters. Although he started as the villain, Loki’s character development eventually turned him into an anti-hero. Loki was initially killed off in Avengers: Infinity War, and although his original version remained like that, Avengers: Endgame created an alternate reality in which Loki escaped the imprisonment after Battle of New York, which eventually led him to TVA and a meeting with Sylvie, which is another of the countless Loki variants across the Multiverse.

The Loki series introduced the Multiverse and the concept of variants into the MCU, which was more developed in Spider-Man: No Way Home and the latest MCU movie Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Although most Marvel shows now are created as limited series, Loki has the advantage that whatever happens in the timeline of the show will not affect the main MCU timeline, unless screenwriters decide otherwise, which opens a way for Loki to explore the worlds and adventures beyond the MCU as we know it.

Tom Hiddleston will return as the titular character, and Sophia Di Martino will return as Sylvie Laufeydottir. The first season ended with Sylvie killing He Who Remains, which opened the gates of the Multiverse that MCU will need to deal with now. Jonathan Majors, who played He Who Remains, will play the character’s evil variant Kang the Conqueror in next year’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumaina.

Loki Season 2 begins production next month. The second season’s premiere date is still TBA.

He's also a web designer and holds a Master’s degree in general Computer Science from the Faculty of Informatics based in Pula, Croatia. Since 2018, Lukas has worked on several portals writing about movies, TV shows, and video games. He's currently writing articles for two of them: Fiction Horizon and Comic Basics. He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
