Jac Schaeffer: Last News

Marvel Studios continues to pump out a multitude of content for Disney+ as the streaming service has thrived thanks partly to the superhero originals alongside the “Star Wars” shows from Lucasfilm.

(With A-list IP like Spider-Man and the X-Men leased out to other studios at the time, this was partly out of necessity.) But even by Marvel’s own standards, the Disney+ show “Agatha All Along” marks the deepest of deep cuts. Kathryn Hahn’s title character, a witch who survived Salem only to run afoul of Elizabeth Olsen’s grief-stricken Wanda Maximoff in Marvel Studios’ TV debut “WandaVision,” has never even headlined a comic book of her own.

The song’s title refers to the mystical thoroughfare that the show’s logline for the show describes as “a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing.” In “WandaVision,” Hahn is first introduced as Agnes, Wanda and Vision’s “nosy neighbor” in Westview, a community trapped inside an ever-evolving television show.
