Marvel’s WandaVision spin-off show has a release window, according to one of its stars
Marvel’s release window Agatha TV series apparently leaked by one of the stars.
Patti LuPone, who will play a supporting role on the show, opened up on the Nov. 21 episode of the podcast “You and Me Both With Hillary Clinton” (as noted by the Scarlet Witch updates X fan account) that it was lined up for a Halloween 2024 launch. Ny Breaking has contacted Disney and Marvel Studios for comment.
The WandaVision spin-off, which was originally titled Agatha: Coven of Chaos and it is now believed to be rung Agatha: Darkhold Journals, it was rumored to arrive on Disney Plus before the end of the year. However, despite wrapping the film in late May, the series was postponed due to numerous changes to Marvel’s 2023 release schedule.
However, now it seems that way Darkhold Journals is preparing to debut in time for the 2024 spooky season. Of her experience working on the show, LuPone said, “We (who greatly support the show) are a coven of witches. It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. in my career because of (director) Jac Schaeffer and (lead star) Kathryn Hahn. It was a set filled with respect, support, love and trust. We as women, and Joe, had a bond. It’s coming out next Halloween.”
A magical misfire
This isn’t the first time LuPone has leaked information about Agatha: Darkhold Journals. Speaking about an April 2023 edition of “The View” from Entertainment Weekly‘, she revealed that she was playing a character named Lilia Calderu, a “450-year-old Sicilian witch whose power is divination and whose (witching) process is tarot”. LuPone also confirmed long-standing rumors that Heart stopper‘s Joe Locke would appear in the Marvel Phase 5 project.
It’s unusual to see one of Marvel’s many stars talk so openly about the production they’re involved with. Given the secrecy surrounding the studio’s development projects, Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) actors sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). ) so they don’t spoil any story or character-based surprises before release. Anyone who does will reportedly receive a stern ruling from Marvel’s legal team, among other things Spider-Man star Tom Holland, Hulk actor Mark Rufallo, and Loki‘s Own Wilson, all previously reprimanded for accidentally ruining plot points.
It’s likely that LuPone signed a similar document, but the 74-year-old clearly has no regard for Marvel’s usually ironclad security measures. However, it should be noted that LuPone’s information may not be up to date, with Marvel potentially changing the series’ launch date amid broader release schedule issues (more on this soon).
Carelessly, Agatha: Darkhold JournalsThe apparent launch of Halloween 2024 is a release window tailor-made for a series. We know little about it, but one thing is certain: it will continue to explore the spooky and mystical side of the MCU, which is ripe for exploration.
Agatha: Darkhold Journals isn’t the only MCU project we’re getting next year, although there won’t be as much content as usual. In January Marvel’s Echo – a spin-off of other street-level series Hawkeye – debuts on Disney Plus and Hulu (at least in the US). The brutal first trailer confirmed Echo will also be the first R-rated MCU project.
However, other MCU TV shows are expected to arrive in 2024, including Iron heart And Daredevil: Born Againhave reportedly been pushed back to 2025. The latter’s delay is of particular significance for Marvel Daredevil: Born Again undergoes a near-total overhaul amid serious creative issues.
As for the film side, Deadpool 3 will also be the only Marvel movie you’ll see in theaters in 2024. As a result of the writers’ and actors’ strikes that swept Hollywood this year, Captain America 4 And Lightning strikesthat were supposed to be released in 2024 were pushed back to 2025.
This latest adjustment to the Marvel schedule comes five months after the Disney subsidiary postponed multiple MCU films (with one exception) as it grapples with numerous internal and external issues. These include the aforementioned strikes, growing criticism of the quality of films and TV shows, accusations of “systemic” overworking of visual effects workers, and the ongoing lawsuit against Kang the Conqueror star Jonathan Majors, who was facing domestic violence charges. early 2023.
