It appears Agatha Harkness will return sooner than expected with a “WandaVision” spinoff starring Kathryn Hahn in the works at Disney+…
It truly has been Agatha all along!
Following award-nominated performance in the hit series “WandaVision,” Kathryn Hahn is expected to reprise her role as the witchy Agatha Harkness for a new spinoff series currently in development at Disney+.
Hahn first appeared in “WandaVision” as a nosy neighbor living next door to Wanda Maximoff after she created a sitcom world in order to reconnect with Vision after he was killed during the events of “Avengers: Infinity War.”
In the series, Agatha was a powerful witch who actually destroyed her own coven during the Salem witch trials after she began practicing a form of dark magic. Her powers continued to grow over the centuries and that’s when she discovered a brand of chaos magic that was being harnessed by Wanda Maximoff after she created her own fantasy world in order to live out a happy existence with Vision.
Agatha inserted herself into Wanda’s life in hopes of taking the chaos magic for herself but in the end, she was defeated after Wanda realized her true potential and transformed into The Scarlet Witch.
At the end of “WandaVision,” Wanda actually cast a spell on Agatha that transformed her into the housewife she pretended to be throughout the season, which essentially trapped her with no chance of escape.
The new series has been described as a dark comedy with “WandaVision” writer Jac Schaeffer returning to lead the show focused on Agatha Harkness.
For now, the series remains in development but if it’s picked up, this will be Schaeffer’s first official project after inking an overall deal with Marvel and 20th Television earlier this year.
Also, the return of Agatha Harkness also means one more thing …. prepare to get this Emmy winning song stuck in your head forever!
