Agatha All Along: Everything We Know So Far
It’s been over three years since Disney+ started bringing Marvel shows to TV screens everywhere, and they’ve come full circle with Agatha All Along.
The series is a spinoff of the first Marvel phase four series, WandaVision, which many consider one of the best.
Now, everyone’s favorite practitioner of the dark arts is back to brew up more trouble.
After multiple title changes, fans now know it was Agatha All Along.
If this show is anything like its sister series, audiences can expect quite a few misleads as well as twists and turns.
And TV Fanatic is here to fill in the rest of the gaps with everything we know so far about Agatha All Along Season 1!

What Is Agatha All Along About?
At the end of the miniseries WandaVision, the witch Agatha Harkness was trapped in the town of Westview, New Jersey.
In Agatha All Along, she escapes with the help of a goth teen who wishes to face the trials of the legendary Witches’ Road.
Without her magical powers, Harkness and the teen form a new coven of witches with whom to face the trials.
This will be the second live-action iteration of the titular character, as first seen alongside Elizabeth Olsen in WandaVision.
Agatha Harkness was initially depicted as a much older mentor figure to the Scarlet Witch.
However, Kathryn Hahn’s version is younger and more interested in her own agenda.
During the Disney+ Day event of November 2021, Agatha All Along was officially announced, with creator Jac Schaeffer set to direct.
Actress Debra Jo Rupp described the show as an anthology similar to the different seasons of American Horror Story.
How Many Episodes Will Agatha All Along Season 1 Have?
The official episode count will come to nine episodes for the miniseries.
That number matches its sister show, WandaVision.

Maria Dizzia (School Spirits) and Paul Adelstein (Cruel Summer) are also involved in the show in undisclosed roles.
While the cast list will be far more extensive for the sake of the series, we’re focusing on the characters we know will likely make the biggest splashes.
Due to multiple outlets’ being unsure about Locke’s character, there is a possibility that the “Billy Kaplan” he’s portraying could be another trick.
In the series WandaVision, Evan Peters was expected to bring his version of Quicksilver from Fox’s X-Men franchise.
However, much to the audience’s chagrin, that turned out to be misleading as the character was only under Agatha’s spell.
The series creators have already proven they are not above tricking viewers, and there has been a great deal of secrecy around Agatha All Along.
