The Witch’s Road might take everything in Agatha All Along D23 trailer

[Karlston]

"The Witch's Road will give you the thing you want most... if you make it to the end."

Kathryn Hahn seeks a new witchy coven in Agatha All Along.

 

Disney introduced the poster and first full trailer for Agatha All Along during its annual D23 Expo this weekend. The nine-episode series, starring Kathryn Hahn, is one of the TV series in the MCU's Phase Five, coming on the heels of Secret Invasion, Loki S2, What If...? S2, and Echo.

 

(Spoilers for WandaVision below.)

 

As reported previously, Agatha All Along has been in the works since 2021, officially announced in November of that year, inspired by Hahn's breakout performance in WandaVision as nosy neighbor Agnes—but secretly a powerful witch named Agatha Harkness who was conspiring to steal Wanda's power. The plot twist even inspiring a meta-jingle that went viral. That series ended with Wanda victorious and Agatha robbed of all her powers, trapped in her nosy neighbor persona.

 

Head writer Jac Schaeffer (who also created WandaVision) has said that the series would follow Agatha as she forms her own coven with "a disparate mixed bag of witches... defined by deception, treachery, villainy, and selfishness" who must learn to work together. And apparently we can expect a few more catchy tunes—one of which is front and center in the new trailer. This new series picks up where WandaVision left Agatha. Per the official premise:

 

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 Hahn, the cast includes Aubrey Plaza as warrior witch Rio Vidal; Joe Locke as Billy, a gay teenage familiar; Patti LuPone as a 450-year-old Sicilian witch named Lilia Calderu; Sasheer Zamata as sorceress Jennifer Kale; Ali Ahn as a witch named Alice; and Miles Gutierrez-Riley as Billy's boyfriend.

 

Debra Jo Rupp reprises her WandaVision role as Sharon Davis ("Mrs. Hart" in the meta-sitcom), here becoming a member of Agatha's coven. Also reprising their WandaVision roles: Emma Caulfield Ford as Sarah Proctor (aka "Dottie Jones"); David Payton as John Collins ("Herb"); David Lengel as Harold Proctor ("Phil Jones"); Asif Ali as Abilash Tandon ("Norm"); Amos Glick (pizza delivery man "Dennis"); Kate Forbes as Agatha's mother Evanora; and Brian Brightman as the Eastview, New Jersey, sheriff.

 

The first two episodes of Agatha All Along drop on September 18, 2024, on Disney+, with episodes airing weekly after that through November 6..
