LOKI and THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLIDER Could Get Multiple Seasons
It looks like a couple of Marvel’s big Disney+ shows could end up getting multiple seasons. It was recently confirmed that WandaVision was a one-season limited series with Disney submitting it to the Limited Series category for the Emmy Awards. As for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, it’s being submitted as a Drama Series, which tells us that Marvel might be planning additional seasons.
Marvel Studios VP of Production and Development Nate Moore wouldn't confirm a second season for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, but he does "absolutely" want to leave the possibility open. He told IndieWire:
“We’ve definitely kicked around ideas because we always like to keep thinking about where things can go, but we also, frankly, in the crush of the pandemic, we’re just trying to finish the show and make sure it got out in a timely matter. Hopefully at the end of this season, you will see the potential for what we could tell in a subsequent season.”
However, Moore went on to tease that the series Loki is being planned as a potential ongoing series. When asked if there were other Marvel shows that could also see multiple seasons, he said:
“The one that comes to mind — and that probably isn’t a secret — I think there’s a lot of storytelling in ‘Loki’ that’s really irreverent and clever and cool, but also lends itself to multiple seasons in a way where it’s not a one-off.”
He went on to praise Tom Hiddleston in the series, saying:
"Tom Hiddleston, I think, is doing some of his best work on that show. It really is kind of amazing. I think of all the great stuff he’s done, but this show is going to show such different sides and really the true scope of his range. I think that show is going to surprise a lot of people."
It’s exciting to learn that Marvel is planning multiple seasons for some of these Marvel shows. When these Disney+ shows were initially announced, they made it sound like most of them would be one-and-done limited series. When explaining why WandaVision is only getting one season, Moore said:
“I think ‘WandaVision’ is a show you can only do once. She can’t go back into that reality."
I’m really curious and excited to see how all of these shows fit in with the future of the MCU and how they are going to flow in and out with the theatrical films.
