In the background, there have been notable developments in Loki season 2 compared to Loki Season 1. The original director of the series, Kate Herron, and the head writer, Michael Waldron, have both decided to step away from their roles to dedicate their time to other projects.

Filling these crucial positions are Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, known for their work on Moon Knight, who have taken on the roles of lead directors for the upcoming season. Additionally, Eric Martin, who served as a writer for Season 1, has assumed the role of head writer for Loki Season 2.

As we venture deeper into the second season of Loki, producer Jane Wright engaged in the discussion for casting of Quan, which occurred just before his career-changing performance in the multiverse spectacle Everything Everywhere All at Once.

In early spring, the creators and directors of the show had a Zoom meeting with Ke, who was recommended by their casting director. They pitched the show and the character OB, to which Ke quickly accepted the role, expressing his excitement to join the Marvel family, he added, “I’m there. I’ve been a huge fan of this for a long time.” This performance significantly altered the Quan’s trajectory.

Furthermore, the conversation delves into the future of both Loki the show and the character Loki himself after the events of Season 2. Fans are eager to learn what twists and turns await the God of Mischief in the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe.
