“I just had so much fun making it. But you never know how anything’s gonna land and I surely had no idea this was in my future at all. So, this is all huge. It finally became very real and very, it’s kind of a relief because it was just a feeling of getting back to work, not feeling pressure. This was another very special gig with a character that I love so, so much.”

Agatha All Along is definitely an extension to Wanda’s narrative as Marvel Studios intends to keep on extending the saga. After Agatha All Along, the studio will add Paul Bettany’s solo vision series. But the question remained, will Elizabeth Olsen return as the Scarlett Witch in Hahn’s series? Speaking with CinemaBlend, Head of Streaming, Television, and Animation at Marvel Studios, Brad Winderbaum said that the upcoming show will be crucial to the very mythology of Wanda.
“I think that um Agatha is a is a crucial chapter in the in the in the wander in the Wanda mythology um uh you know it it is a it is it’s it’s an Agatha show but it is um you know it’s it’s if you’re a fan of Wanda you know. it’s it’s you’re going to you’re going to enjoy this this step down the road.”

Still, there is no confirmation, and may not be anytime soon. Agatha All Along executive producer Mary Livanos stated, “I think I saw what everyone else saw after the Multiverse of Madness uh seems like Wanda was very much taken off the table after her uh dealings with the Darkhold.” She added, “definitely this show is all about Agatha and her history so uh fans will be uh delighted to learn more about her.”
Still, the hope for Olsen’s return is on the horizon. Olsen recently had a chat with Collider sharing that she is ready to make her MCU comeback. “It’s a character that I love going back to when there’s a way to use her well, and I think I have been lucky that when I started I was used well,” Olsen said. “I think people didn’t know what to do with me for a second there… if there’s a good way to use her I’m always happy to come back,” she added.
Agatha All Along will hit Disney Plus on Sept. 18.
