Agatha All Along is premiering on Disney+ (in India on Disney+ Hotstar), with the first two episodes landing on September 18, 2024 (September 19 in India). A spinoff of Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)'s first series, WandaVision, Agatha All Along is based on the previous series' antagonist, Agatha Harkness, with Kathryn Hahn reprising her role as the evil witch, as it returns to Westview, the OG show's location setting. Agatha All Along also features Joe Locke, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Maria Dizzia, Okwui Okpokwasili, Debra Jo Rupp, Patti LuPone, and Aubrey Plaza in the cast. ‘Agatha All Along’ Trailer: Kathryn Hahn’s ‘WandaVision’ Spinoff Is a Dark, Magical Mix of Musical and Horror Elements.
