Wandavision Spinoff Series in the Works at Disney+ Starring Kathryn Hahn as Agatha Harkness
Marvel Studios is developing a spinoff of Emmy-winning Wandavision for Disney+, sources confirm to Deadline. The potential spinoff would be centered around Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness character which Hahn is set to reprise across the MCU — on streaming and in movies — under a larger deal she has made with the studio, sources said.
Wandavision is a genre-bending series created for Disney+ by Jac Schaeffer, which picks up weeks after the events of Avengers: Endgame. It centers on Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany), two super-powered beings living their ideal suburban lives in the town of Westview, New Jersey, who begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems. Hahn’s Agatha Harkness, a witch from Salem, Massachusetts, was a fan-favorite breakout character, earning the actress her second career Emmy nomination to date (her first was for Transparent).
Schaeffer would serve as writer and executive producer on the Harkness spinoff, which was first reported by Deadline’s sister pub Variety. Schaeffer is under a joint overall deal with Marvel and 20th Television.
Hahn is also set to star in a limited series in development at Showtime centered on iconic comedian Joan Rivers. Her other upcoming projects include the Apple series The Shrink Next Door and the Rian Johnson feature Knives Out 2. Along with WandaVision, she previously earned an Emmy nomination for her time on Amazon’s Transparent.
