Aubrey Plaza Talks About Making AGATHA: COVEN OF CHAOS, Describing It As "Elevated Marvel Material"
Marvel fans who especially enjoyed WandaVision are looking forward to the spinoff series Agatha: Coven of Chaos, which is headed to Disney+. The show will follow the character Agatha Harkness, played by Kathryn Hahn in WandaVision, and she is joined by co-stars Aubrey Plaza, Sasheer Zamata, and Patti LuPone.
The series has now been shot and while we await its arrival, Aubrey Plaza has chatted a bit about what it was like to make the series, spoiler free of course. Plaza told The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast:
"Coven of Chaos was so fun. I wanted very much to work with Kathryn Hahn, I think she's so great. And without saying anything really, I had a blast. I loved my character in that as well, and I think it's the most elevated Marvel material that's out there. So, it was cool to jump into that world with those people specifically."
Hahn said of returning to play Agatha:
"I love her so much. I love a witch. I feel like this is exactly the part I should be playing at this stage in my life, and I gotta tell you, we've got the hottest coven on the planet in this show. I'm very excited for you all to see this coven."
There’s no word yet on whether Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda will be returning to play the Scarlet Witch in the series, but fans are hopeful. Olsen previously talked to Variety about her hopes for the character, saying:
"Wanda is heading, hopefully, towards some sort of redemption. I don't think any of these characters are ever really gone. Especially you introduce the Multiverse to multiply all of our bodies and other universes. Something that playing Wanda has taught me over how many years is how many things and opportunities you can do with one character. Kind of breaks a feeling of limitations to be with a character for so long and continue to change the narrative of how this character is used to tell story. That kind of opens up how you think about how we can approach character and storytelling in challenging ways, hopefully."
Agatha: Coven of Chaos doesn’t have a release date at Disney+ yet, but stay tuned, and we will keep you posted.
