Loki S2 deets! (w/ S1 spoils) -- (edited)

— On Disney Plus

In the Season 1 finale of “Loki,” the titular god of mischief (Tom Hiddleston) and his female counterpart — and first true love — Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) confront the mysterious mastermind behind the Time Variance Authority, a man known as He Who Remains (Jonathan Majors). By the end, Sylvie fractures the timeline into the multiverse by killing He Who Remains, after she boots Loki into another reality entirely, one in which his TVA bff Mobius (Owen Wilson) doesn’t even recognize him.

That’s one heck of a cliffhanger! While Marvel did immediately announce that “Loki” is returning for Season 2, we do not yet know when the show will return, or who, beyond Hiddleston, is set to reprise their roles. One possible clue: He Who Remains’ formidable variant Kang the Conqueror will also almost certainly factor into whatever happens — so the question is whether “Loki” Season 2 would stream before or after Kang’s previously announced appearance in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” which is set to open in July 2023.

Production is expected to start on Season 2 in mid-2022, with Season 1 writer Eric Martin penning all the episodes and “Moon Knight” directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead directing the majority of the episodes.

MCU Tie-In: Other than Kang, unclear. One tantalizing possibility, however, is that with the MCU split into all kinds of variant realities, several of Loki’s dear departed family, friends, and enemies could reappear back into his life — from his beloved mother Frigga (Rene Russo) to his murder victim Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg). Only time will tell! —
