Fans of David Haller's (Dan Stevens) reality-altering adventures will be delighted to hear that FX and Marvel have officially renewed Legion for a second season, which is expected to air early next year.

The news was jointly announced FX's Presidents of Original Programming, Eric Schrier and Nick Grad:

“The first season of Legion was a stunning achievement,” said Schrier. “More than a new series, Legion is a wholly original take on the super hero genre. Our thanks to Noah Hawley for taking the creative risks and shattering expectations. It’s a privilege to work again with Noah, his producing partners, the outstanding cast and our partners at Marvel Television on another season of Legion.”

“We are thrilled there will be a new season of LEGION. Noah’s spectacular take on David Haller and all the other characters he brought to life makes us ache for more. We’re particularly proud of our partners at FX and the success we share on our first TV series together,” added Jeph Loeb, Executive Producer and Head of Marvel Television.

Legion continues with a brand new episode later tonight. Will the "devil with the yellow eyes" finally be confirmed as The Shadow King, or will that reveal be saved for the season finale? Tune in to FX at 10 PM ET/PT to find out.
