LOKI Season 2 Set Photos Show The God Of Mischief And Mobius Taking A Trip Back In Time

When Loki was first announced, concept art of the God of Mischief spending time in 1970 London was revealed. Season 2 will make that a reality, however, something that's evident from these set photos...

Shooting is officially underway on Loki season 2, and we now have a first look at Tom Hiddleston and Owen Wilson as Loki and Mobius, respectively. They're both dressed in smart attire and appear to be attending the theatre in 1970s London.

When Loki was announced by Marvel Studios, concept art showing the God of Mischief causing chaos in that same setting was shown. It didn't make it into those first six episodes, but is clearly an idea that the series will revisit for this highly anticipated second season. 

What we don't know, of course, is which Mobius this is. Loki's finale saw the villain turned anti-hero stranded in an alternate timeline where Kang the Conqueror rules the Time Variance Authority. There was a Mobius there, but he had no clue who Loki was, leaving Thor's brother very much alone (though we have to believe the MCU's Mobius and Sylvie will try to find him). 

Neither director Kate Herron nor Head Writer Michael Waldron will return for the show's second season, though it has been confirmed that season 1 scribe Eric Martin is taking over the latter's role. That's no bad thing when he penned some of the show's best episodes, and with Moon Knight directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead on board, it's a solid creative team.

There's no word on a premiere date for Loki season 2, but the belief is that it will be released on Disney+ shortly after Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (which hits theaters on February 17, 2023). That movie will see Jonathan Majors reprise the role of Kang, though your guess is as good as ours when it comes to which Kang Variant that will be!

Gota say I'm glad about this one. Everything else on Disney+... Meh?

I hope he ends up being more villainous though. I don't mind shades of grey and all, but just let the bad guy be a bad guy.

EDIT: Actually Moon Knight was decent.

@UnderBelly - WandaVision was the best show, Loki had some good episodes though but everything else The Falcon And The Winter Soldier,Hawkeye and Moon Knight were average.

@marvel72 - WandaVision, was the first and I was one of those who got overhyped with each episode only to be let down with the Bohner reveal. It was better than Dr Strange MoM, but it just isn't that rewatchable for me. I'll miss Bettany though.

I'm glad Loki is going to be wearing something other than his TVA uniform. I know it's nitpicky but it kinda annoyed me that he was hopping around different planets and timelines and stuff and was constantly in that boring brown suit when he literally has the power to cast illusions and change his appearance and could've done that to blend in to any environment - and I'm pretty sure the only time he did that was to briefly look like a guard to sneak himself and Sylvie onto that ship escaping the planet that was about to be destroyed.

Off-topic, I guess, but I've just seen the leaked postcredits scene from Love&Thunder on youtube and I can't believe how much I'm disliking almost everything on this Phase 4, wtf...

I don't believe that you can't believe it.

@SethBullock - I was curious and just looked it up. Any idea who the actor is playing 'Him?' Was too blurry to make out, but looks like the guy from Ted Lasso.

@UnderBelly - Haven't seen the clip, but I read what the scene is about and I think you're right. That's someone who I can see fit that role.
SethBullock
SethBullock - 7/4/2022, 6:10 AM
@UnderBelly - Yes, he is an actor from Ted Lasso.

Nothing against him, but he looks just too small for the role and he also looks like a lame cosplayer.

Maybe with several extra kgs of muscle and being several extra cms taller he would look better for the role, idk.

Kgs+cms= I'm from Europe, sorry.

@DrReedRichards - You also wouldn't believe how much I couldn't believe the way you were wasted in MoM, your first appearance in the MCU should have been so much better... 😫

@SethBullock - I'm not familiar with the Marvel version of him, but I could see him taking on the role to psuedo replace the Comedic Thor if Hemsworth is done.

Playing on the Short man syndrome/ Napoleon Complex and being kinda cocky. He plays that pretty well in Ted Lasso and is quite likeable as a character.

@SethBullock -

I've no complaints whatsoever. Don't remember what other user I was discussing this with, but there's no way Reed could ever go 1-v-1 with Wanda. Only way he'd be able to come on top is probably some macguffin like the Ultimate Nulifier, or any amount of prep time in general.

Plus, I just don't get the internet's obsession with interpreting his empathy as lack of intelligence. Actually scratch that, that's a lie. I do understand where it stems from, with everyone on the internet throwing a hissy-fit whenever someone quantifiable smarter than them makes an appearance, but I simply disagree with it.

I'm conflicted about most the Disney+ MCU shows. I don't absolutely hate them - but I don't love them either. I don't have that desire to re-watch them like I do with a great show or film.

I'm trying to work out why that might be and the only thing I can think of is that most of the shows seem to be a film story stretched out over several episodes. It seems to me that whole episodes can take place and the plot and characters have barely moved on. Too many filler scenes that seem to repeat what we already know.

Having said that, there has been some excellent bits in all the series with probably Hawkeye and Wandavision being my personal faves and getting into Ms. Marvel alot too because of the novelty of the world.

@Orphix - I think it being closer to 5 hours is also a reason I'd probably won't rewatch any of them soon.

The only one so far that I might consider is Moon Knight, with other shows it's probably one episode or so. What If has a few (Doctor Strange and Infinite Ultron), Loki the finale and WandaVision the fourth episode.

@bkmeijer1 - Five hours is lot of watching time to see again too soon after initially watching them.

For the Disney+ series, I watch each episode soon after it airs, and after each two or three episodes, my brother-in-law comes over (he doesn't have Disney+), and I watch them a second time so he catch up and also in case I missed or forgot something. Watching with him also helps because he notices things that I don't, and we discuss what we saw.

Anyway, point being, I've already seen each show twice, and re-watching them isn't anything I'm in a hurry to do (I sometimes watch certain scenes I want see again, like most of the last episode of Hawkeye, for example).

I'll need to watch the final episode of Loki before the next Ant-Man film hits the theaters.

Now, with the Netflix series, it's a different story, as it has been over two years since they were aired.

After I saw Charlie Cox in the Spider-Man film, I watched Season One of Daredevil again, and it was thoroughly enjoyable, even though I knew what was going to happen.

@LSHF - since the Disney+ shows aren't that long, I just wait for all episodes to be online and watch in two or three days in a row. So it is doable to rewatch, but I rather just watch certain scenes too.

Same with Endgame. It's a long movie to sit through, so sometimes I'll just watch the time-travel act, or the final act.

The Netflix are sometime else entirely though. I do wanna watch Daredevil again eventually, but 39 episodes is quite a lot. And it's been too long for me to know which episodes were good or had good stuff in it.

I just realized that if there are two Mobiuses out there, I hope they get to share a nice trip waterskiing with the two of them.

As for the rest of the show, I have no idea what to even expect. Maybe a tie-in to Quantamia's Kang I guess, but other than that I got nothing.

Perhaps that's Mobius life pre-TVA, like Renslayer in S1.

I just realised that Mobius is the only character remaining in the MCU that I actually miss between appearances.

Need more Mobius!
