Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead did such a great job on Moon Knight, Marvel Studios producers [...]

Loki producer Kevin Wright has been a long-time supporter of filmmakers Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead; so much so, he was ecstatic they landed the job of helming episodes on Moon Knight, even though he wasn't producing the project. After wrapping production on that series, as Wright recalls, he worked quickly to have the two come into Marvel Studios HQ and speak with both he and Loki star and producer Tom Hiddleston.

"Moon Knight, they were awesome on. I had met with Justin and Aaron before Loki season one after The Endless and I really, really liked them there, but Loki was kind of already getting moving and Kate [Herron] was on board. We were loving what she was doing and it was one of those, 'Oh, got to keep those guys in mind for something else,'" Wrights tells ComicBook.com.

The producer went on to say the duo was initially up for another project that never materialized, so they eventually found their way to Moon Knight and, in turn, Loki Season Two. "Then they went on the Moon Knight and it was like this really kind of full circle path of they were doing additional photography on Moon Knight and we had a number of scripts already ready to go on Loki and sent Kevin Feige to go recruit them off the set of Moon Knight and be like, 'Hey, see if they want to come in and meet with Tom and I about Loki season two,'" Wright adds.

Marvel Studios fan-favorite Tom Hiddleston stars in Loki Season 2, returning as the titular God of Mischief for another round of time-traveling hijinx on Disney+ on October 6th. Loki is once again joined by Mobius as the two attempt to keep the timelines intact. After the events of Season 1 saw his variant Sylvie kill He Who Remains and unleash the wrath of Kang the Conqueror upon the Multiverse, Loki must once again embark on an adventure to keep reality from collapsing.
