AGATHA Featurette Officially Released; Teases Return To Westview, The Witches' Road, And More

Marvel Studios has officially released a featurette for Agatha: Darkhold Diaries, and it offers a first look at more sitcom madness in Westview, The Witches' Road, and Billy Maximoff's possible MCU debut.

After a low-res version of this sneak peek recently leaked online, Marvel Entertainment has officially shared (via TVLine) the Agatha featurette included on the upcoming 4K SteelBook release of WandaVision

In that, we see Kathryn Hahn's villainous witch decked out in many of the sitcom costumes she wore in the Hex, a sign perhaps that we'll get to explore more of the time she spent manipulating Wanda Maximoff while the Avenger was in Westview. The characters played by Joe Locke, Patti LuPone, Ali Ahn, Sasheer Zamata, and Debra Jo Rupp can all also be seen. 

"The character is so deep and heartfelt and dangerous," co-executive producer Mary Livanos says in the video below. "Continuing the story of Agatha and getting to know her more was immediately an imperative for us as creatives."

We're also pretty sure Agatha is travelling down the Witches' Road at one point and, in the comics, that's a plane of existence where only sorcerers can tread. What is she doing there? Well, one compelling possibility is that the missing Scarlet Witch will be at least part of the story being told here. 

Whether Agatha is going to go from villain to anti-hero across the course of this series remains to be seen, though it seems likely. If nothing else, we're expecting the Disney+ series to set the stage for more mystical movies and TV shows, likely revolving around Wanda's corner of the MCU.

Check out this new Agatha featurette in the player below.  

Very few official plot details have been revealed for Agatha, though we expect to see the series revolve around Agatha tracking down Billy Maximoff who, like his comic book counterpart, has been "reincarnated" as Billy Kaplan. Mephisto is also expected to appear, possibly played by Sacha Baron Cohen.

Various scoopers have claimed the story will primarily feature the descendants of Evanora Harkness' coven - now known as the Salem Seven - coming back to claim their revenge on the woman who killed their mothers. 

Whatever happens, we're heading back to Westview because the show's supporting cast will feature a number of familiar faces from WandaVision, including Emma Caulfield Ford (Sarah Proctor), Debra Jo Rupp (Sharon Davis), David Payton (John Collins), David Lengel (Harold Proctor), Asif Ali (Abilash Tandon), Amos Glick (Dennis), Brian Brightman (Sheriff Miller), and Kate Forbes (Evanora Harkness). 

Other additions include Aubrey Plaza, Joe Locke, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Okwui Okpokwasili, and Maria Dizzia.

Agatha: House of Darkness Coven of Chaos Darkhold Diaries is currently expected to premiere on Disney+ sometime in 2024.

It's weird that they didn't confirm Wiccan yet. Do they think it's going to be a surprise? They couldn't even fool us with Agatha

@Crtdacct2say - It’ll be another big twist like Evan Peters was and his character will be named Richard Wiener.

@mountainman - No no no, this is a spin-off/sequel so naturally they will have to up the twist so the character will be... Richard Ryder. Everyone will think that that's the intro of Nova but it's actually just Dick Ryder, a used car salesman in Westview. Heh heh, "Dick Ryder", heh.

Just to say it is open to debate if Agatha was ever full villain in WandaVision considering what Wanda was doing thus could easily argue she was already more anti-hero.

As in working out how the Scarlet Witch was doing what she was doing rather than taking her out straight away is certainly moraly questionable however being the one going against a character who imprisoned an entire town in mental torture if more a hero role than villainous one even if for apparent questionable reasons in the finale.

Sans the influence of the Darkhold whilst delving more into all that and potential demonic influences it would be fairly easy on paper to turn her into full hero moving forward if they wanted I would have thought.

If the show will be good or not is an open question but a show about witches with Hahn, Plaza and Emma Caulfield Ford is enough for me to be interested in watching with the expectation that even if the story is meh the acting and interactions between the main cast is likely to more than make up for any such flaws.

She was Wanda's antagonist. As for villain that was somewhat ambiguous by the end. Hayward was clearly the villain but neither Agatha nor Wanda were clean.

Oh goodie ! We go directly from all the time travel gibberish in Loki to all the magic mumbo jumbo in Agatha.

Its funny how they have changed the shows title 3 times. It will probably be sh*t. I thought the Echo trailer looked OK.

I really can't see the point of shows about nothing characters that should supporting roles at best.

The money they spend on crap like Ms.Marvel,Echo, Ironheart and Agatha they could make a Wolverine show or Punisher.
harryba11zack
harryba11zack - 11/28/2023, 6:56 AM
@marvel72 - You forget, wolverine and punisher are not female women. Wolverine is an x-men which they can't really touch (unless it is with the Fox cast) or recast until after 2025 due to the contract with Fox. Disney marvel and "current Marvel" are not fans of the Punisher character.

@harryba11zack - Yeah I get that, they're not fans of their flagship character Spider-Man.

@marvel72 - Disney creative as of 2023 is controlled by feminists and their cucks. Until someone at the very top stops this lunacy, I see no hope for the MCU or Star Wars. They are both dead to me.

@marvel72 - If you were talking movie, fair enough, but for a TV series having a lesser known character that was well recieved in WandaVision on a Disney streaming platform if a solid story no reason it couldn't do well. Shows about witches maybe considered niche but there has long been a decent enough market for them on TV and streaming, we'll just have to wait and see if this one works well or not and if it attracts suffice viewers.

@Apophis71 - The Eternals shouldn't have got a movie. First you introduce the characters in a Thor or Guardians Of The Galaxy movie, then if the are well received a movie.

As for TV shows the viewing figure aren't great because I don't think people are enjoying these characters which are poorly written.

Now if use a well know character like Wolverine (you could adapt the Weapon X story by Barry Windsor Smith) in limited series.

You tell the origin of Silver Surfer.

This never should have been made, it should be abandoned. Madness explored magic and wanda has been played out, they should have used a real villain. This is barely a tertiary character, more like a fourthly character, there are so many better stories to be done and explored. Everyone responsible for this creation should be fired asap and this show abandoned like batgirl. This will tank big, along with echo and ironheart. Stay in canon, listen to fans. But marvel doubt learn

It still boggles my mind that Marvel is producing this show.

Creatives actually refer to themselves as creatives? Didn't know that, thought it was a mildly condescending term we used about them, like giving them a packet of crayons and seeing what they come up with, bless.

It's immediately imperative for me as a corruptor, to tell you to shove this show up yer ass. In a deep and heartfelt way.



If we must do witches at least make them fookin' HOT. Topaz ties into Werewolf by Night. Jennifer Kale ties into Man-Thing etc. Joined thinking and bare midriffs.
