Exploring Marvel's Agatha Harkness Series: Kathryn Hahn Stars in 'WandaVision' Spinoff

Kathryn Hahn's lovable villain in WandaVision had everyone singing "It was Agatha all along," and now she's bringing even more magic to the Agatha Harkness spinoff TV show.

The new Disney+ series, titled Agatha All Along or possibly House of Harkness, Coven of Chaos, and other potential titles (more details below), will showcase even more powerful women. Actress Patti Lupone announced that she will be joining the cast as one of the many sorceresses.

Lupone admitted during an interview on The View in April 2023 that she was unaware of witches and the Marvel world before. She mentioned that in the Marvel world, there exist witches, and they form a coven.

In the final episode of WandaVision, which aired in March 2021, Agatha is likely to seek allies to help her break Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff’s spell. Wanda decided to punish Agatha by making her assume the role of "the nosy neighbor" as a consequence for attempting to steal her powers. Agatha, the ancient witch, was transformed into Agnes, the friendly townsperson who cleverly integrated herself into Wanda's life.

Kathryn Hahn's charmingly wicked character in WandaVision had everyone singing "It was Agatha all along," and now she'll be bringing more magic in the Agatha Harkness spinoff TV show.

The new Disney+ series, titled Agatha All Along or possibly House of Harkness, Coven of Chaos, and other possible titles (more details below), will showcase even more powerful female sorceresses. Patti Lupone recently announced that she will be joining the cast as one of the mystical women.

"I was surprised to learn about witches and the Marvel world," Lupone shared on The View in April 2023. "Apparently, there are witches in the Marvel world, and we form a coven of witches."

Agatha will likely seek help from some allies to break Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff's (Elizabeth Olsen) spell. In the final episode of WandaVision from March 2021, Wanda decided that Agatha's punishment for attempting to steal her powers would be "the role you chose: the nosy neighbor." This forced the ancient witch to take on the identity of Agnes, the friendly town member who had worked her way into Wanda's life.
