RUMOR: Marvel Studios Developing WICCAN Series Along With YOUNG AVENGERS And SCARLET WITCH

Marvel Studios definitely seems to have some big plans in place for the supernatural side of the MCU, as we're now hearing that a solo Wiccan series is in the works...

Agatha All Along has been a pretty big success for Marvel so far (which is at least partially due to the fact that it's the least expensive Disney+ series yet), and it seems the studio is pleased enough with the show's viewership that plans are in place to continue these characters' journeys across several different projects.

Agatha - itself a spin-off of WandaVision - introduced a mysterious "Teen" (Joe Locke) who was recently confirmed to be Wanda Maximoff's (Elizabeth Olsen) son Billy Kaplan/Wiccan.

Now, MTTSH is reporting that a Wiccan solo show is in the works, which Marvel will develop along with the Scarlet Witch movie and a Young Avengers project (we still don't know if that'll be a movie or another Disney+ series).

Daniel Richtman recently claimed that a series focusing on the search for the Scarlet Witch's other son, Tommy Maximoff, aka Speed, was on the cards, so we'd say there's a good chance these projects are one and the same.

There is already a Vision series in the works, and a recent rumor claimed that Euphoria breakout Javon Walton is in talks to play a second "Teen," who will presumably turn out to be Tommy. Do we really need another series focusing on these characters?

To be fair, a lot of people said the same thing about Agatha All Along, and while some fans remain far from won over, the seven episodes we've seen do seem to have silenced a lot of doubters.

Billy and Tommy were introduced as the children of Scarlet Witch and Vision (Paul Bettany) in WandaVision. They were ultimately revealed to be constructs of the Westview Anomaly, and were erased from existence when Wanda dispelled the Hex.

In Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, a vengeful Scarlet With makes it her mission to track down alternate universe variants of the twins, but finally comes to terms with the fact that she can never be reunited with the sons she lost in the WandaVision finale.

The twins will likely be a part of the Young Avengers team we saw Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) begin to assemble in The Marvels.

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.

Plz bring hulkling and iron lad and not Skaar as hulkling

@Timelessicons - With Secret Invasion it'd be pretty easy to bring in Hulkling and Iron Lad should be easy with all the Kang groundwork laid. But I think it's just as likely to be Skaar and Ironheart instead. Iron heart could still be revealed to be a Kang variant.

@ObserverIO - That was similar to my thoughts but I do hope we're wrong on both accounts. I wasn't a fan of Iron heart thus far and I wouldn't be upset to see Skaar as a Young Avenger at some point but I really hope they don't swap him for Hulkling. Both Hulkling and Skaar have some good material in comics and merging them would piss off a lot of their fans I'd wager. See what happens I guess.

oh I like this. Young Avengers I think is PERFECT for a Disney+ series, I'm down with doing a Netflix type thing of individual shows that lead to the team up series.

As long as they don’t try and waste a big budget movie on this, let the kiddos play I guess but I don’t see it catching on

SATW42 - 10/25/2024, 12:08 PM
@NonPlayerC - nah I think it would do just fine. This would be a show very clearly marketed towards a certain demographic and people love Ms. Marvel and Kate Bishop (the actors as well)

@NonPlayerC - there is a reason young avengers has been in demand from fans to be a mcu project.....because they have caught on already. food for thought.
NonPlayerC
NonPlayerC - 10/25/2024, 12:25 PM
@SATW42 - I thought the girl playing miss marvel was charming in her show but it didn’t work in the Marvels, I didn’t enjoy anything about that Hawkeye series, and Wiccan is my least favorite character in Agatha. Maybe I just hate kids
NonPlayerC
NonPlayerC - 10/25/2024, 12:27 PM
@supermanrex - wasn’t aware it was “in demand” from fans. Normally 1 person says something on twitter and people make it sound like everyone in the world is behind the idea but let me clarify, it won’t catch on with me I guess
supermanrex
supermanrex - 10/25/2024, 3:52 PM
@NonPlayerC - well you must not frequent a lot of nerd sights. Young Avengers is very popular in the comics. There has been a lot demand and request from fans hoping for Young Avengers to get introduced. the marvels stinger made a lot of people very happy and hopeful it will happen. but to each their own.

Agenda fatigue.

We understand why they want to pump out D+ shows for Ms. Marvel, Ironheart, and Wiccan. (And what they did with the rainbow Marvels)

The problem is that most of the D+ shows have been bad. Being diverse is a very important thing, but it does no good if you run out minorities and make a bad show or movie with them.

If they spend as much time on the quality of their projects as they do with their social messaging, then everyone will be happy. If they continue to put out bad shows, we will just get the same problems with people saying the bad product sucks, and them responding by calling consumers all the ists & isms.

Make them damn things good, or don't make them.

@DocSpock -

No one really mentions it but Disney TRIPLED the number of productions released after Endgame, and I think quantity failed quality a lot here.

5.5yr before Endgame Marvel had about 12-13 releases give or take, 5.5yrs after Endgame they've had 30-35 releases.

There is no way in hell that doesn't cause the quality of things to start declining.

@TrentCrimm -

Very true. Plus they led with their best characters or course, and now they’re trotting out the C & D listers.

And playing agenda politics Russian roulette.

"Plus they led with their best characters or course"

I think this is the start of a demographic shift we're going to see, the "best" characters are the ones we all know, and for a lot of comic fans, they aged out of the hobby before these C&D listers and New Avengers came into the picture, having Cap, Iron Man, Thor, etc in the movies were stories and characters that regardless of generation everyone would be interested in, and now you've got half that demographic becoming unfamiliar and uninterested in these new characters coming into play because well, Disney isn't giving people a reason to care about them.

@TK420 - the woke Community got their first gay Marvel heroes, their first gay Marvel kiss, their first Marvel of bomb. I bet they can't wait for the day and then they can see their first Marvel guy on guy sex scene. With full frontal nudity.

Bob Iger promised no more unnecessary projects. I’m a fan of what marvel and Joe Locke are doing with Wiccan in Agatha but going down a rabbit hole of spinoff after spinoff after spinoff of WandaVision is ODD!

Wonderman and Vision Quest are also weird. Maybe I’m just not a fan of West Coast Avengers

@JFerguson - oh ok. I had thought it was scrapped. We really haven’t had any set photos, costume updates, nothing really. I wasn’t aware of the picture that was posted.

@KennKathleen - Ya know, I'm pretty sure you're gonna be more right than wrong on this one. Hell, as long as this is taking to get off the ground they might as well be full fledged Avengers.

These rumors just get remixed and regurgitated every other month. Same old every time.

Can’t believe anything until the studio says it
Apophis71
Apophis71 - 10/25/2024, 4:57 PM
@MisterBones - Also been stated they are kicking around ideas for way more shows/films than they plan to make anyway, as in like the norm for the industry. That way they can ditch stuff easily that doesn't gell into a solid story and focus on what evolves in preprod into solid scripts...

...in other words no point listening even if true what they are considering till confirmed otherwise you end up with the way DC was not so long back where most stuff got cancelled, in some cases written off after near completion, thus few could get hyped for anything.

Oh....the MCU wants to explore the SUPERNATURAL side by giving this White Kid his own show but Brutha BLADE who first launched Marvel movies NOT the XMEN can't get a new movie out. I understand now....

Young Avengers should be a series first. I think it helps establish the dynamic and character development of the team with Fury bankrolling them and maybe Ms. Marvel leading the team. The villain should definitely be Molecule Man and have it focus on what and why he is. And the twist for the general audience who doesn't follow the comics is the team discovers that the Molecule Man they defeated is one of endless copies that exist in every universe as a bomb to destroy each universe and they were created by the Beyonders as an answer to the Kang Council. And since Iron Lad is the last living Kang variant, Molecule Man must fulfill it's destiny. But the team defeats him and learn of the impending Incursions about to happen.

Just focus on Young Avengers, I doubt much people are currently interested in a Wiccan show.
