All the Agatha All Along season 2 news we’ve heard so far

Agatha All Along has had a pretty clear plot setup: Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) returns to form by traveling (down down down the) witches’ road. Along the way, she brings in coven members, old memories, unresolved wounds, and even death itself. And maybe, just maybe, that makes her a better person than she has been all along. 

[Ed. note: The rest of this post includes a spoiler warning as it dives into the end of season 1 of Agatha All Along in order to discuss its chances of getting a season 2. You’ve been warned.] 

Well, sorta. Agatha does ultimately sacrifice herself so that Billy can go free, but she later returns as a ghost and calls it a “calculated” decision (classic Agatha, amirite?). Still, Marvel stuck to its guns and didn’t wholly redeem Agatha; we have more insight into who she is, what she’s been through, and how she earned her reputation — as both the sole survivor of the witches’ road, but also a self-serving killer of witches. And it all leads to a bit of a cliffhanger that could set up a second season — or, possibly, something else entirely.

Will there be an Agatha All Along season 2?

The door has certainly been left open — Agatha may be dead but she has also teamed up with Billy to go track down Tommy. That certainly seems like something that flows right into a season 2!

But so far, no one on the creative team has spoken much about even the possibility of there being a season 2 for Agatha. The show was picked up and billed as a limited series, and none of the showrunner or cast interviews have said anything to dispute that. Plus, with so much of Agatha pulling in WandaVision and wider MCU lore, it seems more likely that anything that continues will be outside of Agatha All Along. Possibly she’ll just become some lower-level baddie haunting around the general MCU. It seems important to note here that Vision is getting his own show soon enough!

Well, OK, how does Vision factor into all this?

Though Vision’s show doesn’t have an official title (but has been colloquially called Vision Quest), like Agatha, it seems safe to assume it will deal with the fallout of WandaVision

Paul Bettany, who plays Vision, told The Hollywood Reporter that he’s a big fan of Agatha — and sees utility in keeping up with it. “I love it. I love it and I’m so proud of [showrunner] Jac Schaeffer and I am going to watch again because there’s so much for me to learn moving forward into my contribution,” Bettany said.

What exactly he has to “learn” for his show remains to be seen. But we could certainly connect the dots a little bit: Billy is Wanda and Vision’s kid, and while Vision is not too busy ruminating on the ship of Theseus or sharing time with the MCU’s horniest robot (James Spader’s Ultron will be reappearing), he’ll probably be interested to know the fate of the children he maybe didn’t know he had! 

OK, so where does Billy/Teen go after Agatha All Along? 

As seen in the final episodes of Agatha: On a quest to hunt down his brother, apparently! It’s possible that will take him to his own spin-off show — Agatha certainly seemed to see him as a sort of co-protagonist by the end of its nine episodes. It’s also possible that his quest leads him (and Agatha, his spectral sidekick) to Vision’s show, which could certainly mine the same themes of lost family and sense of self that Agatha and (sort of) WandaVision did.

One place that seems very likely for him to end up? The Young Avengers, which Marvel has been teasing for a little while now. With Kamala “Ms. Marvel” Khan (Iman Vellani) “successfully” recruiting Hawkeye’s Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld), it seems very possible all our teen superheroes are headed to the same place. 

Which makes sense now that we’re rounding out the Young Avengers crew on screen: We’ve already seen Ms. Marvel; Hawkeye; Wiccan; Cassie Lang/Stinger, as seen in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania; America Chavez from Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness; and Eli Bradley/Patriot from The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. All that’s left is to put the pieces together… 

While there hasn’t been much momentum with the project, we, like Vellani, are pinning our hopes on the assurance she got from Marvel brass that she will be returning to the MCU — someday, at least.

Regardless of where he goes, it seems like there’s plenty more to mine in terms of Billy’s powers and how strongly they manifest. If you’re familiar with his comics history, you know the MCU has only scratched the surface on his reality bending powers. But Agatha leaves that as a bit of a tease, a promise for some future, to be determined, Marvel appearance.

Well, OK, so where does that leave us with the MCU? 

This is a great question, given that almost any recently announced future MCU project timeline has been drastically altered. Here’s what we know is coming down the pike: Eyes of Wakanda, the animated origin story series for Danai Gurira’s Dora Milaje leader Okoye, got bumped to Aug. 6, 2025. In its place rounding out 2024’s Marvel offerings will be season 3 of What If?.

In 2025, Marvel will also kick off the year with the animated Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man on Jan. 25, set in an alternate world where Norman Osborn became Peter Parker’s mentor rather than Tony Stark. Captain America: Brave New World, where Anthony Mackie headlines his own Captain America movie for the first time, will be coming on Valentine’s Day (the “Brave New World” is for lovers, apparently). And, after warming us up with a string of cameos, Charlie Cox’s Daredevil will be the first to make the jump from the Netflix Marvel era to the MCU, with Daredevil: Born Again on March 4. 

So there’s more Marvel coming soon! Just maybe not the kind with witches.
