Kevin Wright, executive producer of Loki, outlined how the Season 2 riddles were built. The season premiere introduces many plot threads to unravel, including how Loki (Tom Hiddleston) began time slipping within the TVA (something that should be impossible), what exactly Kang the Conqueror (Jonathan Majors) has done to the organisation, where Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) has been since her confrontation with He Who Remains, what became of Ravonna Renslayer (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) and what the true histories of the TVA agents themselves are. There is obviously a lot to discover, and Wright talked about how he and his colleagues creators went about unravelling these riddles. In an interview, he said, “If you explain too much, the audience has – it seems like they have to bear it.
Wright continued, “The thing that was always most important to us was how simply, when needed, can we explain that in a line or two of dialogue, that audiences go ‘OK, that kind of makes sense.’ We are taking big concepts, we’re getting into time loops, and timey-wimey stuff starts happening big time in this. As it goes on, I’m going to store that in the back of my mind. “We would always look at the script and ask, ‘Is this confusing?'” he said. Or is it fascinating? That may sound stupid, but you’ll recognise it when you see it. And so, if it ever seemed a little unclear, we would decide, “OK, well, maybe we need a little one more queue here.” Most frequently, it was about getting rid of lines.
Director Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead were praised by Wright for “straddling the line between intrigue and confusion.” “This is the Justin and Aaron thing,” he said. The viewer thinks, “I know they want me to track it. If you draw back enough, leave it engaging, and the movie is good enough. I’m going to keep note of it, store it away, and trust that they’ll take it up later. I believe that episode 1 had a small hint about what Loki sees happening in the future. Wright has previously mentioned how the first two seasons of Loki were “two chapters of the same book” and made a suggestion that if Marvel would permit it, there were more stories to be told with the God of Mischief. He also hinted that the TVA may feature in upcoming Marvel Studios films, as the group is already expected to appear in Deadpool 3 alongside Owen Wilson’s Mobius.
