PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Big news for fans of Marvel's "Loki" on Disney+

It turns out the finale wasn't a finale at all, but more of a beginning than an end.

In the post-credits scene, viewers saw a stamp that read: "Loki will return in season 2."

Star Tom Hiddleston says he's thrilled to be continuing this deep dive into the God of Mischief's story.

"As an actor, what I love about playing Loki in this series is taking the things that I feel we had built about the character over time and then putting him in new scenarios with new characters."

The show also welcomed a host of Marvel newcomers, from Owen Wilson to Richard E. Grant, who plays classic Loki, a grown version of Hiddleston's Loki.

"Because Tom Hiddleston is the walking Wikipedia of all things Norse and all things Loki, if I were ever in doubt about anything, about what to do, your role model was standing in front of you," Grant said.

Loki is the first of Marvel's Disney+ scripted originals to get a second season.

The other two shows, "Wandvision" and "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" racked up a combined 28 Emmy nominations this week.
