AGATHA ALL ALONG May Have Given Us A Glimpse Of Rio Vidal's True Form In An Earlier Episode - SPOILERS

Did Marvel Studios reveal Rio Vidal's true form in an earlier episode of Agatha All Along? This screenshot doing the rounds online certainly suggests as much...

If you haven't been keeping up with the rumors and theories surrounding Agatha All Along and still don't know the real identity of Aubrey Plaza's "Green Witch" Rio Vidal, major spoilers follow.

We've known that there was more to seemingly homicidal sorceress Rio Vidal than meets the eye for quite a while, and there was speculation that she might be everyone from Enchantress, to Morgan Le Fay, to an incarnation of Mephisto himself.

Marvel has been dropping hints here and there and actually revealed the character's identity in a promo for episode 5 shortly after the series premiered (the Ouija board spells out her name), and this was later confirmed by some Funko POP packaging: Plaza is actually playing Lady Death.

Now, an image from episode 3 that appears to have flown under the radar has been shared on Reddit, and it might just reveal our first look at "Rio" in her true form as the powerful celestial being.

This glimpse of a hooded and cloaked Grim Reaper (you'll notice the slight green tint to the cape) flashes up on screen along with various other creepy imagery early on in "Through Many Miles of Tricks and Trials." Could this be the form Rio takes once her secret is out?

Episode 3 Agatha. Is this who I think it is?
byu/ARMANII_OvO inmarvelstudios

The new series focuses on Kathryn Hahn’s character, Agatha Harkness, from the acclaimed Marvel Studios’ series WandaVision, as she sets off on a dangerous, mysterious adventure filled with trials and tribulations. Showrunner Jac Schaeffer, who was the creative force behind WandaVision, directs the pilot episode.

"In 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…"

In addition to Kathryn Hahn, Agatha All Along stars Joe Locke, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Maria Dizzia, Paul Adelstein, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Okwui Okpokwasili, with Debra Jo Rupp, with Patti LuPone, and Aubrey Plaza. The executive producers are Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Mary Livanos and Jac Schaeffer. The directors for the series include Jac Schaeffer, Rachel Goldberg and Gandja Montiero.

The fifth episode of Agatha All Along is now streaming on Disney+.

That very well could be her , especially since that green-ish cloak looks very similar to the one we see Aubrey wearing in some of the footage…

Correct me if I’m wrong but that was during Lilia’s hallucination yes?.

Maybe they have some history aswell though it , I think we would have gotten some hints to it by now.

Anyway , Aubrey Plaza is a great choice for Lady Death and has the comedic & dramatic chops to pull it off aswell as this off kilter vibe!!.

@TheVisionary25 - I think maybe they have some unknown history. Think about how much death Lilia has seen. Everywhere she went death has followed her and maybe the reveal will make Lilia realize Rio has been around her forever.

@TheVisionary25 - did you see the theory Lilia had a vision of Alice death and tried to warn her? The Alice don’t… try tosave Agatha

This is such trash and waste of time. Investing in tertiary character that no one knows or or cares about. Lady death is cool, should be introduced with doc strange, not a no name, Nobody like hagatha. It's marvel execs making calls on what IP to pitch, when they have no clue. Will tank all the way, least watch, another joker 2.

@cubichy - if the show wasn’t this fun I’d agree but I genuinely love how this show has unfolded. Less „beloved“ characters make the overzealous fans foam less over the mouth perhaps when an iteration isn’t 100% loyal to their preferred version of the character.

It’s easily the most fun I’ve had with an MCU show since WandaVision.

@cubichy - people said the same thing when the Iron Man movie was announced and again with Thor and Captain America and we all know how those turned out. The MCU was built off characters that no one cared about. And just like with those movies, people are loving this show

@cubichy - Heaven forbid that the company that owns them are making decisions about which characters to use and when. I had my doubts about the need for this show but I was willing to give it a chance and I’m glad that I did.

@BigPhilbowski - Did they say that about Iron Man, Thor and Cap? Don't remember it myself, I remember the conversations about how controversial it might be doing a Cap movie, but that was about it

I do hope that since we didn’t get her and Thanos together if we can have her with Deadpool in the future…

Aubrey & Ryan would have great chemistry.

Skipping the article to drop down here into the comments and say, maybe we need a new word, other than spoilers, to describe this kind of post. Because I'm caught up on the show, so I figured it was safe to read an earlier article that promised SPOILERS, but the "spoilers" were actually leaked info about episodes that hadn't aired yet, and that [frick]ing sucks.

@Clintthahamster - I get yah man , sadly I spoiled it for myself a bit ago sigh.

Maybe LEAKS would be better?.
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 10/12/2024, 10:40 AM
@Clintthahamster - I get what you're saying, but to be fair, I did put another spoiler warning in the opening paragraph.
Clintthahamster
Clintthahamster - 10/12/2024, 10:55 AM
@MarkCassidy - I'm not saying that there's not sufficient warning, I'm saying that it's not the right warning. There's no way for the reader to know if it's a spoiler for the episode that aired last week, or the one airing next week. I've already stopped clicking articles that say "leaks" and "rumors" for this reason. I guess I'll have to give up on "spoiler" articles too. Not much left.

@Clintthahamster - "If you haven't been keeping up with the rumors and theories surrounding Agatha All Along and still don't know the real identity of Aubrey Plaza's "Green Witch" Rio Vidal, major spoilers follow."

that's pretty clear! Regardless of which specific episode it's related to.

Clintthahamster - 10/12/2024, 12:54 PM
@MarkCassidy - Like I said, I haven't read this article because I don't want any further spoilers. The article I was talking about is this one.

"If you've been keeping up with our spoiler posts, you'll already know that Rio is . . ." No hint or indication that the article would discuss the real identity of Plaza's character.

I’m enjoying the love-hate relationship between Agatha and Rio so far…

I can understand Agatha hating Rio if the implication of her possibly having to take Nicholas from the former is true even if she didn’t want to but had to because it was her job though why vice versa?.

Maybe Agatha took the Darkhold from her in retaliation and thus she’s gone out of favor with certain other cosmic or supernatural entities so she needs to build her reputation back.

She’s not Lady Death. The reason the teen has 90% of the mystery surrounding him (he may have had his identity confirmed, but the spell is still in place and we still know almost nothing about him), and Rio has about 10% of the mystery surrounding her is because in spite of her name being on the title Agatha has always been a supporting character. There’s no mystery in Agatha - even though she didn’t know who she was in the beginning of the series, we did. And we have known her motivation the whole time. She has potential for growth, to become the mystical teacher she is in the comics, but that’s about it. What comes after this show will be driven by what happens to the teen (my prediction is a Children’s Crusade show post-Secret Wars (given the casting of Doom and the rumors of a resurrection of the teen’s mom)), and the resolution of the mystery surrounding Rio will also relate to the teen. Since Doom has significant history with Mephisto, Wanda has significant history with Mephisto, Wiccan and Speed have significant history with Mephisto, and other members of the coven have been mentioning Mephisto in Agatha All Along, I’m betting that Rio is really a gender swapped variant of Blackheart (which would make the black heart misdirect with Mrs. Hart make much more sense). The Lady Death stuff is a misdirect just like the Mephisto stuff in WandaVision (which is the inside joke the current show is making fun of - in that show we were all speculating it was something influenced by Mephisto when it was really “Agatha All Along”).

@BearShirt - hmm, what about the Funkopop spoiler though?

@BearShirt - She's not Lady Death mainly because the Marvel character is Mistress Death. Lady Death is paler and has bigger tits.

They may just redeem themselves if they use her to reintroduce Thanos, I mean the proper one not the watered down ridiculous Russos version.
