Actress Aubrey Plaza joined the cast of the upcoming MCU series Agatha: Coven of Chaos last year. She is set to star alongside Kathryn Hahn and Joe Locke in the WandaVision spin-off. The series has been in the works for quite some time, and the studio has kept The White Lotus star’s part in the series under wraps. However, a new report from The Cosmic Circus has revealed updates about the upcoming series.
Along with other information about the show, the report also sheds light on what Plaza’s character might be in Coven of Chaos. However, one of the factors about her character could also be not as exciting as fans would have hoped for.
Updates Regarding Aubrey Plaza’s Character in the MCU
The latest feature under the popular Marvel Cinematic Universe, Secret Invasion, brought a new character to light. Initially introduced in Brie Larson‘s Captain Marvel, Secret Invasion features Emilia Clarke as Gi’ah. And the series has received quite the backlash for making her the most powerful character in the MCU.
And the new update about the upcoming Marvel series Agatha: Coven of Chaos has revealed that Aubrey Plaza‘s character might be quite similar to Gi’ah from Secret Invasion. Since her casting, the studio has left fans wondering about her part in the series.
However, The Cosmic Circus’ sources have revealed that Plaza’s character could “mirror what Emilia Clarke’s Gi’ah was to Secret Invasion.” Marvel fans have been quite open about their dislikeness about overpowered characters like Carol Danvers and now Gi’ah in Secret Invasion.
And the update seems to suggest that the 39-year-old actress could also be in line to become another overpowered character in the MCU. Her character is also reported to have roots tied to Marvel comics and is expected to have her origin in the earliest days of the cinematic universe.
Agatha: Coven of Chaos Could Face Release Delay
The spin-off and potentially the second season of the Elizabeth Olsen starrer WandaVision is expected to release sometime in 2024 on Disney+. It is expected to follow up on the events of WandaVision. However, with the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, it is believed that its release could be further delayed.
The Cosmic Circus has also claimed that the Aubrey Plaza and Kathryn Hahn starrer MCU series could go through a delay due to the writers’ strike and that it’s likely to constantly move ahead with the strike itself. It is also believed that the series could introduce Agatha’s son, Nicholas Scratch, as well. However, there is no official confirmation of such claims yet.
Agatha: Coven of Chaos is expected to release in 2024.
