Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness Update Might Be Good News For Fans

by

In the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe films, a variety of multiverse madness is anticipated, including “Avengers: Doomsday,” where Robert Downey Jr. reprises his role as Doctor Doom under unusual circumstances, and “Avengers: Secret Wars.” Will there be any supernatural commotion amidst all the bulging muscles, technological genius, and impressive weaponry? More specifically, where will Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness next appear with her spectral presence, given that the future of “Agatha All Along”‘s second season remains uncertain?

It’s plausible, given Marvel Studios’ track record, but fans might want to keep their expectations in check. This seems to be the hint given by the actress playing Agatha All Along when she spoke with THR at SXSW. When asked about the possibility of her character appearing in future Avengers films, she seemed hesitant and suggested:

I…don’t think so. I think I would know by now.

From a particular angle, this update might seem disheartening because it’s hard to envision any die-hard Agatha Harkness fans who wouldn’t jump at the chance to see her in every Marvel Cinematic Universe project. After all, her presence could only enhance these projects. However, I believe those very same enthusiasts might find solace in her response.

If Agatha Isn’t In The Avengers Movies, That Frees Her Up For Another TV Season

It seems clear that the entertainment industry doesn’t rely on black and white choices; it’s not just a matter of “If Agatha isn’t in that movie, then she must be part of that TV show.” Instead, there are many complexities to consider, particularly when looking at Disney+’s more expensive productions.

This amazing deal from last year is back, arriving 9 months early in 2025! The popular Disney Plus bundle offer that was a hit during Black Friday will be available starting March, costing just $2.99 a month for the ad-supported plan that includes both Disney Plus and Hulu. That’s a significant 72% discount compared to its regular price of $10.99 per month. While new and returning eligible customers won’t enjoy the reduced rate for as long as they did during Black Friday (where it lasted a whole year), you’ll still get this sub-$3 bundle for the initial four months of your subscription.

It seems reasonable to assume that for the Russo brothers’ films to feature Agatha, it might involve delaying Kathryn Hahn’s live-action MCU appearances until the first film is out, unless she secretly filmed a second season of AAA when no one was looking. However, given everyone has been watching closely, this doesn’t seem plausible. The only other possibility would be through a Special Presentation similar to Jon Bernthal’s Punisher.

Given the lack of time and scheduling demands typically associated with major superhero films, Kathryn Hahn (and potentially other actors from the Marvel Cinematic Universe) might have the opportunity to invest significantly in a project that centers around her character’s story. It seems fitting for Agatha’s character to be part of a production where she would undeniably be the main focus, as she wouldn’t likely thrive in a setting where someone else garnered more attention.

Although it’s tempting to imagine Agatha using her wit in the events of “Doomsday,” fans would probably prefer her collaborating with Joe Locke’s Billy Maximoff on a mission to locate his brother Tommy, or perhaps his non-drowned corpse that Tommy’s soul has inhabited. The fact that he might not look the same is secondary to this joint adventure.

Not too long past, Kathryn Hahn hinted at the possibility of continuing her witchy character, though she couldn’t reveal specifics about future projects. With the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movie projects in full swing, let’s keep our fingers crossed for an increased opportunity for more dark, purple-tinged roles on the TV side.
