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!
