The latest picks up with Agatha three years after being imprisoned in a personal purgatorial hex by Wanda Maximoff, leading her to believe that she is Detective Agnes of Westview.
Following an applicable title sequence that lists several familiar names, the first episode nonetheless establishes that Agnes' Westview co-stars are no longer under the same illusion. Instead, the residents of Westview have returned to their authentic lives and reassumed their real names. These residents aren't the only characters from WandaVision to reprise their roles, however, as a couple of newer faces may be more familiar than initially conveyed.
9 Agatha Harkness Is Now The Series Protagonist
Known As Agnes O'Connor Under The Westview Hex
Agatha Harkness was introduced in WandaVision as Wanda and Vision's lively neighbor, inserting herself as a guest star in most of the sitcom-themed episodes that comprised the series. She unveils her true identity in episode 7, becoming the show's primary antagonist as it is revealed that Agatha had been manipulating Wanda's idyllic hex all along. Following a final showdown in which Agatha attempts to absorb Wanda's chaos magic and threatens the lives of Wanda's children, Wanda strips Agatha of her powers and subjects her to a personal hex in which she would always believe herself to be Agnes.
This is where Agnes of Westview picks up, depicting Agatha as a hard-nosed detective who has been living in a crime drama for three years. Upon being freed by Teen - a mysterious character who confesses to being a fan of Agatha - she immediately sets off to reclaim her powers via the Witches' Road, disparaging the now ostensibly dead Scarlet Witch before assembling a ragtag coven. Her disdain is still a prominent part of her character as she continues to exude a villainous air - though this will likely soften by the show's end.
8 Sharon Davis Will Play A Larger Role
Known As Mrs. Hart Under The Westview Hex
While under Wanda's hex, the widower Sharon Davis became Mrs. Hart and the wife of Vision's boss, Arthur. The two visit the titular duo's house under the pretense of being hosted for dinner, though things take a panicked turn as Arthur Hart begins choking on his food. Mrs. Hart jovially tells her husband to "Stop it," before eerily directing the demand to Wanda as though subconsciously pleading for her to end the hex. Mrs. Hart would appear later in the show after Agatha breaks the hex, imploring Wanda to either end the hex or their suffering.
Her Westview character mirrors the true character of Sharon Davis, who is portrayed in Agatha All Along as a cheerful neighbor and avid gardener. She happily acquiesces to Agatha's demands and unwittingly s her coven despite thus far demonstrating no magical abilities. As the notable outlier of the Witches' Road travelers, Agatha has put the innocent Sharon Davis in a precarious position, possibly endangering her life. She will no doubt become an endearing member of the main cast and possibly provide Agatha with a chance to demonstrate her more virtuous side.
7 John Collins Now Works In Forensics
Known As Herb Feltman Under The Westview Hex
In the Westview Hex, John Collins assumes the role of Herb Feltman, a friendly member of the neighborhood watch and neighbor to Wanda and Vision. He interacts most often with Vision during his debut appearance, raising Vision's suspicions about Wanda's true nature after being enthralled by Agatha. When Agatha breaks Wanda's hex, John reveals that he tried to resist Wanda's magic before pleading that she release him and his fellow residents.
"Herb" is the first Westview character other than Agnes to reprise his role as part of Agatha's Agnes of Westview delusion. Still Agatha's neighbor, he portrays a forensics officer who divulges information about the murder of a woman who appears to be Wanda. In reality, John is the one to reveal to Agatha that she has been interacting with the neighborhood as her Agnes character. He is sympathetic to Agatha as she breaks free from her spell, despite her nudity, and flees the scene as the Salem Seven later descend on Agatha's Westview home.
6 Sarah Proctor Returns As Westview's Librarian
Known As Dottie Jones Under The Westview Hex
In WandaVision, Dottie Jones is an active if slightly derisive member of the manufactured Westview community and fills the role of socialite. She expresses suspicions about Wanda and Vision upon hearing Jimmy Woo's voice over the radio, though is successfully re-enthralled by Wanda. Sarah is the first to beseech Wanda after Agatha begins releasing Westview's residents from her hex, pleading that she at least allows her daughter to leave her room and be a part of Wanda's "Storyline," if only so that she can hug her again.
Agatha All Along Cast Explained: All New & Returning Marvel Characters (& What Happens To Every Witch)
Agatha reunites several familiar faces from WandaVision. Here's a guide to the cast of characters featured in the Phase 5 series.
In Agatha's personal hex, Sarah Proctor returns as Dottie in the role of the local librarian. She shares a slightly frayed interaction with Agnes as the latter attempts to shed light on a piece of evidence - a library slip bearing a title that spells out "Darkhold." Outside the hex, Sarah can be seen with her husband, Harold Proctor, and her daughter for the first time as she bundles the child indoors after Agatha strolls naked across the street.
5 Harold Proctor Returns As Chief Of Police
Known As Phil Jones Under The Westview Hex
Phil Jones is a fleeting colleague of Vision at Computational Services Inc. in WandaVision's Westview Anomaly before he is fired by Arthur Hart for serving him a substandard meal and his "Embarrassing display of beatnik enthusiasm." Beyond this, Jones acts as more of a ing character to Dottie's more prominent role in the sitcom. He is also a member of the neighborhood watch alongside Herb and Norm.
WandaVision Episodes 1 & 2 Cast Guide: Every Marvel Character
The first two episodes of WandaVision are now on Disney+. Here's every cast member and character who appears with Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany.
Phil Jones plays a more prominent role in Agnes of Westview, however, as the town's Chief of Police. He maintains his somewhat demure persona as Agnes chastises him for her suspension, though he is the one to introduce Rio Vidal to the show in her first guise as an FBI agent. Harold Proctor makes a brief appearance outside of the hex as he witnesses Agatha strolling into the street naked with his family, conspicuously lingering for a few moments longer before being bundled inside by Sarah Proctor.
4 Abilash Tandon Returns As A Jeweller/Pawnbroker
Known As Gentilucci Under The Westview Hex
Abilash Tandon assumes the role of Norm Gentilucci in Wanda's Hex, another colleague of Vision at Computational Services Inc. In-character, Norm is a jovial friend of Vision and one of the first that Vision releases from Wanda's thrall, where he reveals he has a sister whom he is desperate to call. Later, Tandon reveals that Wanda's hex subjects the residents to her nightmares, pleading for her to release them before appearing particularly disdainful when the Westview residents see her for the last time.
Agatha All Along Episode 1 & 2 Easter Eggs And Marvel References
Agatha All Along has premiered its first two episodes on Disney+, and both are full of exciting Easter eggs, Marvel references, and WandaVision ties.
In Agnes of Westview, Norm is a jeweler/pawnbroker who helps Agnes identify the mysterious brooch she found near the crime scene. He names the three women on the brooch as the Maiden, Mother, and Crone, while identifying its material as the shell of a cowrie, a common sea snail. While the cowrie shell is significant in many cultures, he says it is North American, suggesting that significance will be linked to the Midewiwin tribe - AKA the Grand Medicine Society - of New England and the Great Lakes region. This identification is likely part of Agatha's own knowledge, however.
3 Dennis The Mailman Returns As A Mysterious Library Patron
Known As Dennis Webber Under The Westview Hex
Dennis Webber is a Westview Anomaly character whose real name is never divulged. In WandaVision, he plays the mail carrier, whose interactions were brief but memorable, jokingly responding to Agnes' finger guns with "Don't shoot, I'm just a messenger." Upon being released from Wanda's hex, "Dennis" desperately approaches Wanda claiming to be exhausted by his experience. In real-life Westview, the unnamed person who plays Dennis is a pizza delivery driver.
Dennis' actor, Amos Glick, created a music video about his role as "Dennis the Mailman" on WandaVision.
Dennis' role in Agnes of Westview is just as fleeting, with the character showing up briefly in the library to whisper to Agnes that the book she was seeking from the library slip was destroyed in a fire before following up with "Every last copy." As Agnes later discovered the book's title spells out "Darkhold," Dennis is evidently referring to the fate of the book at the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness as the Scarlet Witch ostensibly sacrificed herself to destroy every version of the Darkhold throughout the multiverse.
2 Teen May Be Billy Maximoff
The Theory Explained
Billy Maximoff was ostensibly destroyed when Wanda removed the hex from Westview, prompting her to seek him and his brother out across the multiverse instead.
Another theory, however, suggests that he is Nicholas Scratch, the son of Agatha Harkness whose empty bedroom was depicted in the first episode. Scratch is an enemy of the Fantastic Four, which would make his arrival in Agatha All Along a timely one ahead of the family's debut in 2025's The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Given Agatha's pet rabbit is called "Senor Scratchy," however, it makes it more likely that this rabbit is her son, and that Billy Maximoff has somehow manifested outside the Westview Anomaly and ed the Witches' Road to become Wiccan.
1 Wanda Maximoff Returns As A Dead Body
Wanda Is Central To The First Two Episodes Of Agatha All Along
Agatha All Along's first two episodes deal heavily with the aftereffects of Wanda's hex on Agatha. Upon stripping Agatha of her powers and confining her to a personal Westview hex, Wanda left with the Darkhold that was once under Agatha's possession, depriving Agatha of every source of power she once had while supercharging her own. Now that Wanda Maximoff is ostensibly dead in the real world, Agatha is free to escape the hex placed upon her.
A hopeful theory suggests that the red flash that emanated from a collapsing Darkhold Castle was Wanda somehow surviving the structure collapsing around her.
While Wanda may be dead in real life, it appears that her corpse features heavily in Agatha All Along's first episode. The body's face is never revealed, but the red hair and Darkhold-stained fingertips indicate it is Wanda Maximoff. This suggests that Wanda may yet play a larger role in the series, perhaps even making a living appearance down the line, as her story is so closely linked to Agatha's attempts to reclaim her powers.
