Marvel Studios is developing a lot of Disney+ shows that are incorporated in Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Although most of them are designed as mini-series, two of them will surely get a second season — the animated series What If…? and Loki, in which Tom Hiddleston plays the role he’s been playing since 2011’s Thor, the movie in which he debuted as Loki, the God of Mischief.

Michael Waldron, a screenwriter who worked on the first season of Loki, and also wrote a screenplay for the upcoming movie Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, is set to return for the second season of Loki. And as he’s slowly establishing himself as one of the franchise’s veterans, he recently spoke about the upcoming season. Of course, he didn’t reveal something solid about the season itself, but he gave a few teases, and we’ll be satisfied with that for now because the season’s premiere is still far far away.

“Well, I mean, look, what Kate did with Kasra Farahani our production designer, Christine Wada, our costume designer. And the whole crew and establishing the look of the show, I mean, what can you say other than it’s just like, it is utterly spectacular. It doesn’t look like TV. It couldn’t have looked more premium. So what they did was amazing. […] Benson and Morehead, I know those guys. They’re great. They’re brilliant in their own right. You know, I think they’re going to come in and they’re going to do what everybody on this project does, which is to elevate, you know? Then they’ll take what was great about it and fit it with their own awesome instincts and everything and hopefully will make something even better.” — Michael Waldron for The Playlist

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, written by Waldron and directed by Sam Raimi will land in theaters on May 6. Loki Season 2 is expected to begin production this year, but when it’s going to premiere, it’s anyone’s guess.

Lukas Abramovich is a freelance writer and photo and video editor based in Croatia. 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.
