The inclusion of Kang the Conqueror in the upcoming Loki season has excited fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Kang the Conqueror, also known as Nathaniel Richards, is one of the most formidable villains in the Marvel comics, and his presence on the show will add an extra dimension to the story.

Tom Hiddleston's portrayal of Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been a fan favorite, and his character's series sequel on Disney+ is highly anticipated.

The first season of Loki premiered on June 9, 2021, and followed the god of mischief as he navigated his way through time and different versions of himself. The season ended with a cliffhanger, and fans eagerly await the next installment. While Marvel has confirmed that Loki season 2 will arrive in mid-2023, an official release date is yet to be announced.

Alongside Hiddleston, several cast members have been announced for Loki season 2, including:

  • Owen Wilson as Agent Mobius
  • Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ravonna Renslayer
  • Jonathan Majors as Kang the Conqueror
  • Eugene Cordero as Casey
  • Tara Strong as Miss Minutes
  • Rafael Casal,
  • Ke Huy Quan
  • Kate Dickie.

One of the early plot points of Loki season two could revolve around the aftermath of Loki's appearance on a different TVA. In the season 1 finale, Loki finds himself in a TVA that he recognizes alongside people he knows, but none of them know who he is. As for He Who Remains, it is unlikely he will reappear as Sylvie killed him in the season one finale.

However, we will see Kang (or multiple variants of him). In the comics, Kang the Conqueror is a time-traveling villain from the 30th century and has various versions. It is currently unclear if this Kang will be the MCU's primary version, but the season one finale ended with Loki looking at a statue of what appeared to be Kang in the TVA.

It may be the same one who will appear in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. At the same time, it is also possible that Kang in Loki season two could be a different version than the one that is set to appear in the new Ant-Man film.

Kang the Conqueror is a formidable villain in the comics. As mentioned earlier, his presence in Loki season two could add an exciting new layer to the story. Fans eagerly await to see how Kang's character will be portrayed and how his story will intertwine with Loki's.

With the show's exploration of the multiverse and different versions of characters, it will be interesting to see how Kang the Conqueror fits into the story. It would be just as interesting to see what role he will play in the bigger picture of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Furthermore, Kang the Conqueror's time-traveling abilities could play a significant role in Loki's season 2 storyline.

As the series explores the concept of time and different versions of characters, Kang's presence could add an extra dimension to the story. It could also provide a new perspective on the events in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This allows cross-over events and connections with other characters and storylines in the MCU.

Another possibility is that Kang's version of Loki season two could be a version that was not seen before in the comics or the movies, and this will be a new take on the character. With Marvel known for their creative liberties in adapting the comics to the screen, it could be exciting to see a new version of Kang the Conqueror exclusive to the series.

However, it's important to note that while Kang's inclusion in Loki season two is exciting, it's important to remember that the show is ultimately about Loki, and his story should take center stage.

While Kang's inclusion will add a thrilling aspect to the storyline, it should not overshadow the focus on Loki and center solely around Kang the Conqueror.

The show's exploration of the multiverse and alternate versions of characters adds an intriguing layer of complexity, and it will be fascinating to see how Kang fits into the overall narrative and what role he will play in the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe.
