Ragnarok: what you need to know before the second season of the Netflix series
The series about Thor and Loki is about to return with a second season that arrives a year after the first.
Ragnarok was one of the most watched Netflix series at the time, and it was telling the story of Thor, Loki, and other Norse gods from a very different perspective than we’ve seen before, bringing the characters to a current context where they don’t they were exactly Marvel heroes or villains.

The first season of Ragnarok began when a teenager moves with his family to a small town in the mountains, where he ends up discovering that all his difficulties adjusting are connected to the fact that he is a kind of reincarnation of the legendary God of Thunder, and who has a mission to accomplish.
In its first season, Ragnarok was even more popular than The Witcher (with Henry Cavill ) and also left the story in a cliffhanger that suggested that we would see a confrontation between Thor, Loki and the titans who had managed to remain hidden in the town and they had a plan to take over the world.
The sixth and final chapter of the series closed with a battle between Magne (aka Thor) and Vidar , the most powerful man in town who turned out to be an immortal character from mythology, and it didn’t take long for Netflix to confirm that a second part was about to come. to get.
When does the second season of Ragnarok premiere?
Netflix revealed on its list of premieres each month that the second season would arrive on May 27.
What is Ragnarok 2 about?
We don’t really know where things are going to lead, but we do know that Magne managed to summon a lightning bolt that ended the fight between him and Vidar, and that that may have killed the giant.
Season 2 will have to wait right after that moment, revealing Vidar’s fate and revealing Magne as he continues to develop his God of Asgard powers. We’re still not sure if Vidar survived the lightning strike, but if he did, the two characters will surely have to face each other again in the future, and it’s likely that Vidar will retreat at least for a time to develop a new plan to defeat him. your new enemy.
Magne is also more likely to have to face the other giants now that he has become a major threat to his existence. He will probably have to fight the Jutul eventually, for now, the Jutul family are the only giants we have seen, but if Vidar’s death is confirmed then we can expect to see some giants and other gods appear that could be new allies and enemies of Magne as she learns to control her abilities.
On the other hand, Laurits , Magne’s brother, is Loki and he clearly has his own plans, so it is possible that he will end up as the new villain in the story, at least until Vidar regains his strength and tries to finish what he started.
The cast
We look forward to seeing David Stakston as Magne Seier, Jonas Strand Gravli as Laurits Seier, Herman Tømmeraas as Fjor, Theresa Frostad Eggesbø as Saxa, Emma Bones as Gry, Henriette Steenstrup as Turid Seier and Synnøve Macody Lund as Ran.
Magne, Laurits, Fjor and Saxa appear in the first images they used to confirm the return of the series, so it is very likely that they are the ones who are at the center of what is going to happen now that Magne knows the truth.
The death of Vidar (played by actor Gísli Örn Garðarsson ) has not been confirmed, so it is not known if the character will return, although it is very likely that he still has an important role in the story.
