Future
Season 2 already in development, says Marvel producer
Meanwhile, Marvel producer Nate Moore has already teased a potential season two. When asked what shows could have multiple seasons, Moore said, "The one that comes to mind — and that probably isn't a secret — I think there's a lot of storytelling in Loki that's irreverent and clever, but also lends itself to multiple seasons in a way where it's not a one-off."
Trivia
Interesting tidbits about the upcoming Disney+ series

The upcoming series will also connect the God of Mischief to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Wilson and Hiddleston have worked together in Midnight in Paris.
