Witch, please! Marvel Studios is transmuting everyone’s case of the “Mondays” into gold with an Agatha All Along trailer featuring Kathryn Hahn’s return to the MCU as everyone’s favorite enchantress in disguise, Agatha Harkness! After what feels like eons of waiting and a laughable amount of title changes, Marvel puts the fan-favorite character from 2021’s WandaVision front and center for a wicked tale of reclamation and retribution.
As the song “Seven Devils” by Florence + the Machine builds, Marvel’s Agatha All Along trailer reintroduces Kathryn Hahn as Agatha Harkness, who, at the end of WandaVision, was cast into an enchanted limbo by Wanda Maximoff. While in the “inbetween,” Agatha spends her time as a homicide detective investigating a mysterious death. While pondering the circumstances of the victim’s demise, Agatha meets a bewildering witch, played by Aubrey Plaza, who reminds Agatha about Wanda’s spell. After her restoration, Agatha strives to build a new coven of like-minded witches to bring back the “glory days.” As she looks to traverse the “Witch’s Road,” Agatha taunts dark and sinister forces to aid her in her mission to restore her power.
In addition to Kathryn Hahn and Aubrey Plaza, the Agatha All Along trailer features Heartstopper’s Joe Locke as William Kaplan, aka Billy Kaplan, aka Wiccan. Patti LuPone, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Debra Jo Rupp, Maria Dizzia, Emma Caufield Ford, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, and Holly Ward also star.
Jac Schaeffer directs the first episode of Agatha All Along. She previously directed the sci-fi rom-com TiMER, created WandaVision, and worked on the scripts for Black Widow and Captain Marvel. Schaeffer told Empire that Agatha is joined by “a disparate, mixed bag of witches,” and “what they have in common is that they’re covenless witches. Witches are defined by deception, treachery, villainy and selfishness. What do you do when you have a group of witches who [demonstrate] those notions and you need them to work together?” She said, “Where WandaVision played with the form of classic TV sitcoms, [here] we do a lot of playing with what the assumptions about witches are. Like, what are the shorthand visuals for witches? We certainly didn’t want a one-dimensional nasty witch. We will have moments where we see Agatha’s true heart.”
Agatha All Along begins casting a spell on Disney+ on September 18, 2024, to lead into the Halloween holiday. What do you think about Marvel’s Agatha All Along trailer? Let us know in the comments section below.

Longlegs, the latest horror project from The Blackcoat’s Daughter (a.k.a. February), I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House, and Gretel & Hansel director Osgood Perkins, is set to reach theatres on July 12th (JoBlo’s own Chris Bumbray gave the movie a 9/10 review you can read at THIS LINK) – and while the final trailer was already released a week ago, the marketing continues with the new “Heartbeat” promo, which shows the first time lead actress Maika Monroe (It Follows) saw Nicolas Cage (Dream Scenario) as his serial killer character. Apparently the filmmakers even had a heart rate monitor on Monroe during the filming of the scene, because the promo reveals how high her heart rate got when she had to face Cage’s Longlegs. You can check it out in the embed above – and don’t worry, the appearance of Cage’s character is obscured.
Alicia Witt (Urban Legend) and Blair Underwood (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D) are also in the cast of Longlegs. The story Perkins crafted for the film is said to be “in the vein of classic Hollywood psychological thrillers.” Monroe takes on the role of FBI Agent Lee Harker, a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer. As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.
Cage has said (while speaking to John Carpenter) the film is about “a character who’s hearing voices. It’s kind of like a possessed Geppetto, who’s making these dolls”. Production took place in Vancouver, Canada. Cage is producing Longlegs through his company Saturn Films, which recently had success with The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent and Pig. Also producing are Dan Kagan, Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, Dave Caplan, and Chris Ferguson. Jason Cloth and Fred Berger of Automatik serve as executive producers with John Friedberg of Black Bear.
In addition to directing the films mentioned at the top of this article, Perkins directed an episode of the recent revival of The Twilight Zone. He has also worked on the screenplays for the thriller Removal, the crime thriller Cold Comes the Night, and the horror film The Girl in the Photographs. His next film is the Stephen King adaptation The Monkey, which is coming to theatres on February 21st.
