MCU is slowly building its theme toward the Avengers 5 phenomenon. Marvel is setting up its characters for the major event, introducing new heroes and villains, and preparing the already existing ones, and for this, the franchise would require a huge roster of heroes to face the events to come in Secret Wars.
The Avengers, the Fantastic Four (in development), and the X-Men which are getting rebooted will play a major role in the upcoming scenarios of Secret Wars on Battleworld.
Loki And Sylvie’s Return In Avengers 5?
The main antagonist of Secret Wars is said to be Kang the Conqueror, who is a variant of He Who Remains whom Loki and Sylvie fought and defeated in the TVA – Time Variance Authority. So up to a point, Loki and Sylvie are responsible for causing the multiversal war and chaos and would most likely return to make amends.
Loki and Sylvie might have to fight Kang the Conqueror standing side-by-side with Earth’s mightiest heroes in a redemption arc to end all redemption arcs. Though with the current size and capabilities of the heroes winning against the one who can travel through time does not seem easy.
Loki season 2 which is scheduled to debut in mid-2023 will consist of 6 episodes. Development for the second season was already started in late 2020, pre-production began by end of April 2022 and post-production has already begun. Loki season 2 will be considered a part of Phase Five of the MCU.
