Loki Season 2 Release Date: Loki, the Marvel Studios series starring Tom Hiddleston as the god of mischief, was one of the most popular and acclaimed shows on Disney+ in 2021. The first season ended with a shocking twist that opened up the multiverse and set up the stage for future Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) projects. Fans have been eagerly waiting for the second season, which was confirmed in a mid-credits scene in the season finale. Here is everything you need to know about Loki season 2, including its release date, cast, plot, trailer, and more.

Loki Season 2 Release Date and Time

Loki season 2 will premiere on Disney+ on Thursday, October 5, 2023, at 6 pm PT. It will consist of six episodes of 40-50 minutes each and will run every Thursday until November 9, 2023. This is a change from the previous Marvel shows on Disney+, which aired on Fridays. The reason for this shift is unclear, but it could be to avoid competition with other streaming platforms or to create more buzz for the show throughout the week.

Cast

The main cast of Loki season 2 will include:

Tom Hiddleston plays Loki, the trickster god and Thor’s adoptive sibling, inspired by the Norse legend of the same name. He is a different, “time divergent” version of Loki who made a new timeline in Avengers: Endgame (2019) starting from 2012. He is timeslipping, moving through time between the past and present.
Sophia Di Martino portrays Sylvie, a Loki variant who murdered He Who Remains and shattered the timeline to create the multiverse. She is also known as the Enchantress, a powerful sorceress who can manipulate minds and memories.
Owen Wilson as Mobius M. Mobius: A former analyst and agent of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), an organization that operated outside of time to maintain the Sacred Timeline. He befriended Loki and helped him uncover the truth about the TVA and He Who Remains.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ravonna Renslayer: A former judge and hunter of the TVA who was loyal to He Who Remains until she learned that he was manipulating her and everyone else. She escaped from the TVA with a TemPad, a device that can travel through time and space.
Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15: A former hunter and leader of the TVA who was also a variant kidnapped from her original timeline. She rebelled against the TVA after Sylvie showed her her past life.
Tara Strong as Miss Minutes: A holographic artificial intelligence that serves as the mascot and assistant of the TVA. She has a cheerful and friendly personality, but also a sinister and deceptive side.
Jonathan Majors as He Who Remains / Kang the Conqueror: A supergenius who developed the Sacred Timeline to prevent a devastating war between his variants from different realities of the multiverse. He ruled over the TVA from his citadel at the end of time until Sylvie killed him, unleashing his more evil and powerful variants across the multiverse. One of them is Kang the Conqueror, a tyrannical warlord who will be the main antagonist of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023).

The new cast members of Loki season 2 will include:

Ke Huy Quan as Casey: A former clerk of the TVA who worked with Mobius and had a collection of Infinity Stones that he considered useless. He will have a bigger role in season 2 as he joins Mobius and Loki in their quest to restore order to the multiverse.
Kate Dickie as Ren Slattery: A mysterious character who will be introduced in season 2. She is described as “a powerful figure with a dark secret”.
Liz Carr as Sara: Another new character who will appear in season 2. She is said to be “a witty and charming ally who helps Loki in his adventures”.
Rafael Casal as Kid Loki: A younger version of Loki who rules over a kingdom of lost children in a post-apocalyptic New York City. He is one of the many variants of Loki that were pruned by the TVA and sent to a void at the end of time. He will have a cameo appearance in season 2.

Plot

The plot of Loki season 2 will follow the aftermath of the season 1 finale, which saw Sylvie killing He Who Remains and unleashing the multiverse, creating countless branching timelines and alternate realities. Loki, who was transported to a different version of the TVA, will have to team up with Mobius, Hunter B-15, Casey, and other allies to find Sylvie, stop Kang the Conqueror, and restore the Sacred Timeline. Along the way, they will encounter various threats and challenges, as well as other variants of Loki and other MCU characters.

Loki season 2 will also explore Loki’s character development, as he learns more about himself and his feelings for Sylvie. Hiddleston said that the season will see Loki “understanding himself”, having found this new TVA family and his “new capacity to make connections”. He also teased that the season will have “more mischief” and “more fun” than the first one.

Loki season 2 will also connect to other MCU projects, such as Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022), Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021), and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023), which will all deal with the consequences of the multiverse. Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios, said that Loki is “tremendously important” for the future of the MCU and that it will have a “big impact” on Phase Five.
