Loki season 2 starts UK shoot with Tom Hiddleston

The second series of Marvel’s Loki starring Tom Hiddleston begins a UK shoot today, 13 June, for delivery to Disney+.

Loki is the third television series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) to be produced by Marvel Studios and is created by Michael Waldron, based on the Marvel Comics character. The story takes place after the events covered in the 2019 feature film Avengers: Endgame, when Loki takes the Space Stone.

Hiddleston is once again in place as the titular god of mischief; production is based at Pinewood Studios on the six-episode run. The whole shoot is due to take place in the UK this time around season one filmed largely at Pinewood’s Atlanta Studios from February, 2020.

Disney has a long-term lease at Pinewood Studios as part of its ever-increasing UK presence. Streaming channel Disney+ has upped the level of UK-based original content commissions too: currently in production is Lookout Point’s hefty swashbuckling drama The Ballad of Renegade Nell and eight-episode updated iteration of The Full Monty.

And the post-production work on Seven Stories’ and Moonriver TV’s Nautilus, now filming in Queensland for Disney+, will be done in the UK.
