More Reality-Bending Chaos in 2023 is promised with Season 2 of "Loki."

www.popsugar.co.uk, September 21, 2022
Fans of Disney+'s "Loki" series will have to wait a little longer for season two. Kevin Feige, the Marvel CEO, revealed at San Diego Comic-Con in July that the second season of the hit show starring Tom Hiddleston and Owen Wilson will be headed to Disney+ in mid-2023. He also announced that the season will be included in Phase Five of the MCU. Otherwise, we don't have a ton of details on what will happen during the time-travelling, reality-twisting series's second season. For everything we know so far about "Loki" season two and how it fits into the MCU, click here. Hiddleston teased that the second season would begin right where season one left off. "OK, so we can't say anything," says Loki, but we can't say anything at the end of episode six, but [the] TVA comes back to us." He's extremely traumatic, he's incredibly emotional, and he's trying to tell Mobius what happens, but Mobius doesn't recognize him. And then he heads to see the statue of the Timekeepers, but it is not a statue of someone else. I'm hoping we'll start from there."
