Now that Secret Invasion is over, the MCU is ready for its next series coming to Disney+ with the second season of Loki. Tom Hiddleston will reprise his role as the God of Mischief in a new batch of episodes of his adventures through time.

After two years full of projects both on the small and big screen, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is slowing things down. Secret Invasion was the first show to debut on the streaming platform of the House of Mouse this year, and there are only two more left. Loki, which is coming back for a second season and Echo, which is a spinoff from Hawkeye and will work as a bridge between that story and Daredevil: Born Again.

Loki is set to return on October 6, and confirms it with a new poster which teases different versions of the popular main character:

Hiddleston’s show has become a key piece in the MCU’s current puzzle, since it was one of the first projects that played with the idea of the multiverse and the possibility of some characters to go from one reality to another. In season 2, Loki will explore the multiverse in an even wider way after the introduction of the main villain the franchise heroes will be facing during the current phases of the saga, Kang the Conqueror.

Season two will also dig deeper into Owen Wilson’s Mobius story, since the character will play a major part in the future of the MCU while being one of the main representatives from the TVA.

Deadpool 3 is one of the most anticipated projects in the future of the franchise, not only because it will be the first R-rated movie within the MCU, but because it will feature the return of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. And Loki and its whole plot may play a huge part on Logan’s participation.

According to many reports, in the third adventure of Ryan Reynolds as the Merc with a Mouth, Wade Wilson is cornered by the TVA for using Cable’s devise to travel through time and appearing in different realities. In order not to be erased from the timeline, Deadpool will offer to help the TVA to correct some major mistakes, for which he will team up with some version of Wolverine.

Miss Minutes and Mobius are rumored to have a participation in Deadpool 3, and Matthew Macfadyen is reportedly playing a TVA agent in the film. The cast also includes Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, Morena Baccarin, Brianna Hildebrand, Stefan Kapicic, Shiori Kutsuna, Rob Delaney, Emma Corrin, and Jennifer Garner reprising her role as Elektra.

Deadpool 3 could also include participations of Ben Affleck as Matt Murdock from his Daredevil movie, Halle Berry as Storm, Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier, Ian McKellen as Magneto, and other stars from the original X-Men trilogy such as James Marsden or Famke Janssen.
