    Owen Wilson is among the growing list of Marvel actors who have been scolded by the studio for revealing too many spoilers.

    Wilson plays Mobius M. Mobius in Disney+'s Loki, and he confirmed in an interview with ComicBook.com that he's currently filming Season 2.

    "Yeah, we're doing that. Yeah, Tom [Hiddleston] is great. Doing Loki, and we're filming that now in London."

    When asked for more info, though, Wilson said, "We'll see what happens with this one. I immediately get kind of self-conscious because they're so kind of uptight."

    As for whether Marvel has "scolded" him about spoilers in the past, Wilson responded, "Yes. Yeah, multiple times."

    Last year, Wilson told Esquire about an "ominous" text message he received from an anonymous Marvel employee after he revealed he was growing his mustache for Loki.

    "I let it slip I had a mustache for Mobius,” Wilson said at the time. "I got an ominous text saying 'Strike 1.' I don't know who that was. We think it might have been Kevin Feige using a burner phone but that wasn't confirmed."

    Other Marvel stars have also been under fire for accidentally revealing spoilers, including Tom Holland and Mark Ruffalo. Holland is even the subject of several YouTube compilations in which he accidentally reveals Spider-Man details as his co-stars try to reign him in. He once called it a "miracle" that he was allowed to promote the Marvel films at all, given his reputation.

    Ruffalo is also a serial offender: during the premiere of Thor: Ragnarok, he accidentally live-streamed part of the film on Instagram.

    Season 1 of Loki is available to stream on Disney+.
