New Photos from Marvel's AGATHA ALL ALONG and One Offers a First Look at Aubrey Plaza in Her "Warrior Witch" Costume
Some new photos for Marvel Studios' Agatha All Along series have been released, and they offer a new look at several of the characters in the series, including a first look at Aubrey Plaza suited-up as Rio Vidal wearing her "warrior witch" costume.
Plaza previously talked about her time shooting Agatha All Along and Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis at the same time, saying: “I would literally go from one to the other and would put my Wow wig on and my Wow costume on.
"And then the next day, I would go to the Agatha set and I’d be dressed as a warrior witch with a dagger and stuff. At one point, when I was dressed in the Marvel character, I sneaked onto the Megalopolis set and I started harassing Giancarlo Esposito and Adam [Driver] and everyone. It was absolutely insane behaviour.”
The character that Plaza is playing in Agatha, Rio Vidal, is a very powerful Green Witch and an ex of Kathryn Hahn’s Miss Harkness.
In this series, “she sets off on a dangerous, mysterious adventure filled with trials and tribulations.” Agatha Harkness finds herself “down and out of power after a suspicious goth Teen helps break her free from a distorted spell.
“Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing.
“Together, Agatha and this mysterious Teen pull together a desperate coven, and set off down, down, down, The Road…”
It looks like this could be a fun Marvel show. I like the mix of horror and humor that’s teased in this trailer.
Showrunner Jac Schaeffer (WandaVision) directs the pilot episode and the cast includes “a disparate, mixed bag of witches” and those witches include Patti LuPone’s Lilia, Sasheer Zamata’s Jennifer, Debra Jo Rupp’s Sharon, and Ali Ahn’s Alice.
The rest of the cast includes Joe Locke, Maria Dizzia, Paul Adelstein, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Okwui Okpokwasili and Aubrey Plaza.
Marvel Television’s Agatha All Along premieres September 18 at 6:00 p.m. PT/9:00 p.m. ET, with the first two episodes, exclusively on Disney+.
