Recently in an interview, Wilson was asked about Loki season 2 in hopes of getting some spoilers but he gave a simple answer saying:

“Yeah, we’re doing that. Yeah, Tom (Hiddleston) is great, Doing Loki, and we’re filming that now in London.”

He was also asked about his famous jet ski scene, and whether we will be able to see Mobius riding one or not in Loki season 2. He nearly caught himself saying too much. He said that he is self-conscious as Marvel is so “kind of uptight”.

“Well, I do think that… you know, we’ll see what happens with this one, I immediately get kind of self-conscious because they’re so kind of uptight.”

The director of Secret Headquarters, Rel Schulman also asked Wilson if he had ever been scolded by Marvel, and he confirmed that it had already happened “multiple times”.

Back in August 2021, Owen Wilson shared that when he let it slip that he had a moustache for portraying Mobius in Loki, he received a text saying ‘Strike 1’ and speculated that it might have been Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige using a burner phone.

“I’m so nervous now to talk about anything related to those movies because the fandom is so real and I have said I will not be a house for spoilers. So I can’t say much, I think everything that we need to know has already been said, which is that she is the king of New Asgard, so she’s navigating her diplomatic duties, she’s reunited with her friend Thor and we’ve got the gang back together.”

“I hadn’t heard that announcement, but I found out yesterday that the Punisher was happening again. So, I feel like it’s my second chance because that’s the only one of the shows I wasn’t in and I love Jon Bernthal. So, lets all make it happen collectively, guys”. 

In the same way, the Eternals actor Patton Oswalt let it slip that a sequel to Marvel Studios’ Eternals is in the works.
