Jonathan Majors’ entrance back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe is hinted at in the Loki season 2’s first official teaser.
The actor allegedly faced new allegations of violence against two ex-partners last month, which he rejected.
The accusations that Majors “physically, verbally, or emotionally assaulted anyone, much alone any of his prior love relationships,” were refuted by his attorney Dustin A. Pusch, who said they were “based completely on hearsay.”
The Creed III actor was detained and accused of assault and harassment in March of this year after an apparent fight with a lady in Manhattan, New York City.
The 33-year-old allegedly filed a domestic violence complaint against the accused lady and disputed all accusations.
Prior to being introduced as Kang the Conqueror in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Majors made his MCU debut in Loki’s first season as a character named He Who Remains.
He will also make a comeback in Loki’s second season as Victor Timely, the next major antagonist of the MCU’s future.
Kang, Victor, and He Who Remains are all variations of one another from different times as Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Mobius M Mobius (Owen Wilson), a member of the Time Variance Authority, struggle to stop the collapse of the multiverse.
Marvel fans also get their first glimpse at Everything Everywhere All At Once actor Ke Huy Quan as rookie OB, who has no idea how to cure Loki’s “timeslipping” in the TVA, in the first official teaser.
The God of Mischief appears to be practically being torn apart at various moments in time as Loki explains, “I’ve been pulled across time between the past and the present.”

‘If what I saw is true, there’s nothing that stands between this world and utter destruction.’
A bronze statue of Kang is depicted being stabbed by Loki at this point.
While completing their task, Loki and Mobius travel back in time while charmingly interacting with one another.
Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino), a variant of Loki, also returns, as chaos ensues.
‘We’re playing god,’ Sylvie says to Loki, as he replies simply: ‘We are gods.’
Victor Timely finally makes an appearance, appearing on stage wearing a vintage suit and glasses and talking about having to make a “hard choice.”
Loki exclaims in disbelief, “It’s him,” as Victor puts on a riveting performance for his audience.
Loki season 2 is set to premiere on October 6 on Disney Plus.
