I’m still trying to figure out the thought process, here.
The Legion Panel confirmed a few things. For one, Legion is already greenlit for a second season, and that said second season will be two episodes longer than the first.
Joining them for the second season will be Wonder Woman’s Saïd Taghmaoui (Sameer) as Amahl Farouk/Shadow King, along with Aubrey Plaza.
Showrunner Noah Hawley also let slip a hint about something he’s working on: Doctor Doom. Fox has since let on that it’s to be a movie based around the villain, but nothing else.
One really wonders why they’re trying to go back to that well so soon after Fant4stic bombed harder than the North Korean sea floor. But, given what’s been shown of Legion, he could pull it off.
