Loki started as a side character in earlier Marvel films as he played the role of “evil brother” of the god of thunder, Thor. The plotlines subsequently became clearer as Loki got his own “emotional backstory”. He went on to have his own original TV series which actually turned out to be pretty good. ‘Loki‘ season 1 ended in a state of chaotic frenzy. In the final episode, Sylvie, played by Sophia Di Martino, gets overzealous in her quest for vengeance and plunges a dagger into the heart of He Who Remains, sending the universe into madness.
Disney+ has officially renewed ‘Loki‘ for a second season. MCU revealed the exciting news during the finale’s end credits. The case file at the end was marked with a stamp that read, “Loki will return in season 2.”

Plot And Release Date
Directors of the show, Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson, confirmed that viewers can expect “something new and fresh”. They said that this season they will find “a new story to tell“, otherwise a second season isn’t worth doing. Marvel has officially released the plot synopsis of season 2.

Along with Mobius, Hunter B-15 and a team of new and returning characters, Loki navigates an ever-expanding and increasingly dangerous multiverse in search of Sylvie, Judge Renslayer, Miss Minutes and the truth of what it means to possess free will and glorious purpose.”
