AGATHA ALL ALONG Star Kathryn Hahn On Potential FANTASTIC FOUR Team-Up & Show's LGBTQ+ Themes

As we're sure many fans of Marvel's First Family will be aware, powerful witch Agatha Harkness actually made her first comic book appearance in the pages of Fantastic Four back in 1969, and Agatha All Along star Kathryn Hahn would love to pay tribute to her character's origin by teaming-up with the heroes on screen.

"I would love to play with that cast," Hahn tells Total Film. "They are all incredible. And Matt Shakman, who is incredible too, he's directing the film and did all of WandaVision. I'm very excited for that movie."

The Fantastic Four: First Steps and Agatha All Along may not seem like the most natural crossover, but with two massive MCU event movies on the horizon in Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, who knows which characters we could see cross paths.

Hahn was also asked about the WandaVision spin-off's LGBTQ+ themes (Joe Locke's "Teen" is openly gay, and Agatha herself was in a relationship with Aubrey Plaza's Rio Vidal), and she feels that "queerness" has always been a big part of the show.

"It's in the bones of the show for sure! I remember there being a WandaVision drag brunch and that made us so happy. It's the greatest tribute we could possibly ever have. So that was something that was very important to Jac [Schaeffer, creator], Mary [Livanos, producer], and me when we were making this, making sure that element was still involved."

Will you be tuning in when Agatha All Along premieres next week? Let us know in the comments section.

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.

Marvel Television’s Agatha All Along premieres September 18 at 6:00 p.m. PT/9:00 p.m. ET, with the first two episodes, exclusively on Disney+.

@captainwalker - I wouldn't be so sure. My wife hardly gives a crap about any agendas, and liked Wandavision and saw an article that Agatha starts this week and said to me "oh good agatha starts soon!"

I'm not saying it's going to be a runaway hit, but I almost always have to tell her when a show is starting or even exists, but she clocked this one herself. So I wouldn't be so sure it's going to fall on it's face is all I'm saying

Queerness is almost part of every show or movie for years

Its nothing new or special

It’s common

But everyone acts like they’re the ones breaking some type of glass ceiling with their brand new show

lol

@WakandaTech - and you always have to point it out, like anyone cares except for insecure crybabies like yourself

@bobevanz - Oh, please. Tools like you and MarkCassidy deliberately emphasize these topics to get a rise out of select folks.

It's childish pettiness and nothing more.

Go shave your vagina.

Folks like you burn properties and shoot up schools for using the wrong pronouns, and you have the audacity to call others "crybabies".

Progressives and hypocircy go together like PB&J. That's why nobody likes them and they keeps getting mowed down on bridges.

@WakandaTech - lolz.

Yeah, queerness was part of snyder's 300 when the spartans made fun of the athenian "boy lovers". Very common indeed

@WakandaTech - Its disgusting that these people are allowed to brainwash and parade around a young boy like this, not even 30 years ago this would be considered child abuse.all in attempt to recruit children Into degeneracy

This version of Agatha being Franklin’s nanny would be hilarious and actually an interesting component to her possible arc of redemption…

She could try to turn over a new leaf and this could be a first step towards it while the FF themselves are unsure about her until she proves herself at the end.

There could be a continuing struggle of her being tempted back into her old evil ways and then coming to care about this family , especially the kids.

@CoolUsername - Everyone says "agenda" like it's a big secret that we should be impressed you've discovered. The agenda is obvious and very public, it's about taking back pop culture from asshats like you who think inclusiveness is some evil scheme. Quit whining and let someone else play with the toys every once in a while. Kindergarten children are more emotionally mature than you.

@TheNewYorker - So, in TV shows, they have this thing called "spin-offs" where a popular breakout character from one show gets their own program. That's what this is. Nothing more, nothing less.

@Clintthahamster - ooh.. okay. Yeah, I think I heard of that before. Uh, But wait 🤔 that show didn’t have any popular breakout characters. Not even cool interesting ones.
Maybe I missed that episode.

@TheNewYorker - You crazy wiseacre. We both know exactly what I'm talking about, but LOL at y'all's ongoing efforts to just pretend that things that definitely happened never happened so that you can protect your internal narrative

@SonOfAGif - Settle down, Freakshow # 3.

"Always comment ?"

I haven't been on here in over a month. 😂

That being said let's discuss who lives rent free in your head.

People like me do. People who aren't receptive to the nonsense. In reality it infuriates you more than these DEI topics do those who you claim they infuriate.

Not to mention it's actually you who's always the one with the constant rebutals.

Hypocricy at it finest. It's the progressive way.

For those who believe the queerness is unnecessary, History says otherwise. Many witches or women who were accused of being witches found safe harbour amongst themselves and began to fall in love with one another due to how evil many of the men were towards women they believed were a witch. The irony is that many of the women hanged for being a witch weren't witches at all but were targets of evil people in that time period out of jealousy or hatred and used the Witch rumor to get someone hanged.

@SonOfAGif - The fact your pathetic enough to try and justify this, knowing good and well that was not behind Disney's intentions behind this topic is hilarious.

Tools like you are why we get the effortless DEI nonsense from Disney.

Tools like you eat it up like chicken chow mein.
