It was confirmed on Twitter by Rob McElhenney, Mythic Quest star and creator, that production on season 2 is shutting down for now. “We are working on a plan to make sure no one misses a paycheck,” McElhenney explained in his announcement. “These are strange times and we need to take care of each other.” Mythic Quest season 2 is just the latest TV show to shutdown in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak, with production halting on projects like Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Netflix’s Stranger Things season 4.

It’s unclear when Mythic Quest season 2 will resume production. The world is just at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, and at this point, it’s difficult to gauge just how long the virus will impact every day life. Some coronavirus delays will just last a couple of weeks, but others, as is the case with Mythic Quest season 2, have been delayed indefinitely. Rob McElhenney will likely share more information when he himself has a better idea of when production will resume on Mythic Quest season 2.
As for what Mythic Quest season 2 will be about, the end of season 1 made it pretty clear what one major focus of the next season will be. However, to discuss that we will have to delve into some spoilers for season 1, so anyone that has yet to watch the series should turn back now if they want to go in with fresh eyes.
In the final episode of Mythic Quest season 1, Poppy is promoted to be the co-head of creative alongside McElhenney’s character Ian Grimm. At first, this seems like it will bring unity to the development team at the heart of the show, but it’s clear that it will cause serious issues instead. Ian and Poppy will likely be at each other’s throats throughout season 2, and that should create plenty of interesting scenarios.
More on Mythic Quest season 2 will be revealed at some point after production on the show has resumed.
Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet is available to stream now on Apple TV+.
