In a recent revelation, actress Patti LuPone disclosed that the Marvel series Agatha All Along will not be returning for a second season. LuPone, who portrayed the character Lilia Calderu, shared that showrunner Jac Schaeffer informed her of this decision during production. According to LuPone, Schaeffer stated, “I don’t do second seasons,” highlighting her preference for creating standalone narratives.

Agatha All Along served as a spin-off from WandaVision, putting Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness front and center. The series explored the witch’s backstory and her role within the MCU. While it delighted audiences with its quirky humor, dark magic, and fresh take on Agatha, the show was always intended to be a one-off.

This decision mirrors the approach taken with WandaVision, which was also conceived as a limited series. Both shows demonstrate Marvel’s willingness to explore specific characters and story arcs without the commitment of multi-season formats, while still leaving room for those characters to reappear in other MCU projects.

What’s Next for Agatha ?

Although a second season of Agatha All Along is not in the cards, this doesn’t necessarily mark the end of Agatha Harkness’ story in the MCU. Marvel has a well-established tradition of reintroducing characters into other films and series, creating interconnected narratives that allow fan-favorite characters to live on in new ways.

Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness became a breakout character in WandaVision, and her popularity makes it likely that she will appear in future Marvel projects. While no specific details have been announced, her deep ties to magic and the multiverse provide plenty of opportunities for her to make a dramatic return.
