The spin-off was surely ordained the minute Kathryn Hahn hit her first mark in front of the WandaVision cameras. She played the superhero couple’s nosy neighbour “Agnes”, who was in fact a Salem witch named Agatha Harkness bent on acquiring Wanda’s powers for herself. Hahn’s darkly comic, ineffably compelling performance almost stole the show. It was, for the longtime and well-respected character actor, a star-making part at last.

Agatha All Along, the new nine-part series – from the creator of WandaVision, Jac Schaeffer – picks up just after the final events of the original, which saw Agatha drained of her powers and trapped in the perfect, and therefore hellish, suburb of Westview.
