Witch, please! Marvel Studios is transmuting everyone’s case of the “Mondays” into gold with an Agatha All Along trailer featuring Kathryn Hahn’s return to the MCU as everyone’s favorite enchantress in disguise, Agatha Harkness! After what feels like eons of waiting and a laughable amount of title changes, Marvel puts the fan-favorite character from 2021’s WandaVision front and center for a wicked tale of reclamation and retribution. Now, courtesy of D23, comes out first full-length trailer for the hotly anticipated now show!
In addition to Kathryn Hahn and Aubrey Plaza, the Agatha All Along trailer features Heartstopper’s Joe Locke, who fans believe is playing William Kaplan, aka Billy Kaplan, aka Wiccan. Patti LuPone, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Debra Jo Rupp, Maria Dizzia, Emma Caufield Ford, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, and Holly Ward also star.
Jac Schaeffer directs the first episode of Agatha All Along. She previously directed the sci-fi rom-com TiMER, created WandaVision, and worked on the scripts for Black Widow and Captain Marvel. Schaeffer told Empire that Agatha is joined by “a disparate, mixed bag of witches,” and “what they have in common is that they’re covenless witches. Witches are defined by deception, treachery, villainy and selfishness. What do you do when you have a group of witches who [demonstrate] those notions and you need them to work together?” She said, “Where WandaVision played with the form of classic TV sitcoms, [here] we do a lot of playing with what the assumptions about witches are. Like, what are the shorthand visuals for witches? We certainly didn’t want a one-dimensional nasty witch. We will have moments where we see Agatha’s true heart.”
Here’s the official synopsis from Disney:
In Marvel Studios’ “Agatha All Along,” the infamous Agatha Harkness finds herself down and out of power after a suspicious goth Teen helps break her free from a distorted spell. Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing. Together, Agatha and this mysterious Teen pull together a desperate coven, and set off down, down, down The Road…
Agatha All Along begins casting a spell on Disney+ on September 18, 2024, to lead into the Halloween holiday. Here’s the new poster:
