Loki Season 1 saw the God Of Mischief being captured by the Time Variance Authority as he’d sullied the timeline he belonged in. Just to recap, in Avengers: Endgame as Stark and Scott were trying to get the Tesseract they “mess up” because the Hulk acts out as he had to take the stairs. Subsequently the Tesseracts lands in Loki’s hands and he escapes, messing up the timeline. As a result, the TVA captures him. In his time at the TVA, he meets various variants of himself including an Old Loki and even a Croc Loki. However, more importantly he meets a female variant of himself- Sylvie. Sylvie was captured by the TVA in her childhood to fix the timeline. Since then she made it her life mission to destroy the not so benevolent staff of the TVA.
Our Loki falls in love with Sylvie and adopts her mission as his own. Ultimately, this mission leads the narcissistic couple to the man behind the TVA’s curtain, He Who Remains- Kang the Conqueror. Sylvie’s decision to kill Kang the Conqueror at the end of Season 1 results in multiple versions of him being unleashed that liberates the timeline. Season 1 of Loki left us on a huge cliffhanger as we see Loki, Mobius and Hunter B-15 staring at the statue of Kang the Conqueror with seemingly no memories of him. The post credit scene of the series did confirm a 2nd Season was afoot but it was unclear as how will characters like Sylvie and Ravonna Renslayer be brought back.
The 2nd Season of Loki recently began filming in the UK. Like us many fans are excited for the 2nd Season and they couldn’t control their excitement about it. These fans were able to get some good snaps of the set, including Loki and Sylvie. Let’s take a look.
Loki Season 2 set in the 70s?
One of the leaked set photos show Loki and Sylvie at a McDonalds joint. However, this doesn’t look like the contemporary McDonalds joint, the production design of the place is very similar to the joints in the 70s. It appears as if Sylvie is not simply hanging out there rather she works there. I mean look at what she is wearing. Loki can be here either on some side mission or on a quest of finding her. Although, the most interesting thing of all for me is the line above the McDonalds ‘M’.
It says, “Contemporary Indian Cuisine”. The last I checked, Burgers and fries definitely didn’t qualify as Indian cuisine. However, this could be a clue itself suggesting they’re in a separate timeline or universe where Burgers and fries, in all-McDonalds was a part of the Indian cuisine.
the fact that Tom said that Loki won’t stop searching for Sylvie.

Season 1 of Loki was built around Sylvie getting her revenge from Kang the Conqueror as he was the brains behind the TVA. The TVA captured her and she forever condemned them as they refused her a normal life she could’ve lived. Now based on these images it looks like she is leading a normal life. She might’ve left her love story with Loki in the past. After she killed Kang she must’ve used his TemPad to escape the Citadel at the end of time. She would’ve used that device to travel through different timelines and universes.
Finally landing on Earth in the 70s and leading a pretty normal life. It would be interesting to see how will the 2nd Season make sense all of this. The consequences of Kang’s murder, Sylvie’s impact on the universe she is living in, Loki and Sylvie’s love story. Everything needs to make sense.
Loki Season 2 is slated on release on Disney+ in mid-2023. Season 1 is available for streaming.
