To celebrate the hugely anticipated release of Marvel’s Agatha All Along, the latest in their Disney+ series’, we had the pleasure of sitting down with some of the people responsible for one of the MCU’s wildest entries yet.
The infamous Agatha Harkness finds herself down and out of power after a suspicious goth Teen helps break her free from a distorted spell. Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing. Together, Agatha and this mysterious Teen pull together a desperate coven, and set off down, down, down The Road…
Chatting to star Joe Locke, who plays the mysterious Teen in the show, we talk about his audition process and not knowing who he would be playing, the secrecy around the show and his character, being in the company of Hahn, Aubrey Plaza, Debra Jo Rupp, Patti Lupone and more on set, his influences for the character and whether this was more difficult than his stint on Celebrity Bake Off. Next, we chat to showrunner and writer Jac Schaeffer about why Agatha was worthy of her own show, the links with WandaVision and being a little off-kilter from the rest of the MCU, the secret pop culture references dotted around the show and making a secret musical?
You can watch the interviews below:
Agatha All Along begins on Disney+ on September 19th with a two-episode debut.
