“Agatha Always” has ended, but according to show creator Jac Schaeffer, the witch’s screen journey has just begun

Warning: Spoilers ahead for season 1 of Agatha Always.

If I had to name one big TV surprise premiering in the second half of 2024, I would definitely choose Agatha Always. Sure, I’ve loved Marvel Studios’ Disney+ shows in the past, but we’ve been frustrated with this whole thing for a while, and after WandaVision wowed most viewers, this particular series feels like it came too late in 2021 The beginning of the year.

With an entire season (originally planned to be a limited series) now behind us, it’s time to think and discuss Agatha and [redacted]The future on screen could be after the finale leaves a door open and perfectly closes this dual character arc in a satisfying way. Speaking to Marvel.com, series creator Jac Schaeffer gave some answers… and a vague tease.

“What I loved about Episode 9 is that we kept chasing her truth… This character was introduced as a living lie. This show is a lie in many ways: it’s very dramatic, and a lot of it is performance Sexual. And about wearing masks and costumes,” Shaffer said of the ending, which is odd because it serves as a coda to both Billy Maximoff and Agatha Harkness. Plenty of room to breathe and grow further after the main plot. Already wrapped.

In fact, the final episode had Kathryn Hahn doing something about the twisted witch as we learned more about her relationship with Death (Aubrey Plaza) and the death of his son Nicholas Scratch Something completely different. The writers didn’t let Harkness off the hook either. She got her (beautiful) deserved death, but that doesn’t mean her journey is over. Her new ghost form will remind many Marvel Universe fans, gamers, and comic readers of her character in Midnight Sun, which opens up many interesting possibilities for the more fantastical and magical side of the universe.

“It’s not about killing off the character…it’s about the evolution of the character,” the showrunner teased, all but confirming afterwards whether the character will be in a surprising second season or elsewhere, as well There’s more to come, especially now that she’s joined by Billy (aka Wiccan) to find his missing twin, Tommy. “I still feel like Agatha has more to explore as Ghost… so get ready.” Hopefully, she’ll be able to guide the Midnight Sons whenever they get together in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
