Video Description
As part of The Paley Center's 42nd William S. Paley Television Festival, this festival program celebrates Disney+’s Agatha All Along, the magical mini-series spun off from Marvel Entertainment's WandaVision, following witch Agatha Harkness as she breaks free from a binding spell and sets out to reclaim her powers while facing old foes. The panel features executive producer/creator/showrunner/director Jac Schaeffer and cast members Kathryn Hahn, Debra Jo Rupp, Ali Ahn, and Sasheer Zamata. Moderated by Screen Rant’s Ash Crossan. The discussion explores why Agatha’s story needed to continue beyond WandaVision, the appeal of making her an underdog, and Hahn’s choice to avoid portraying Agatha as an “over-the-top sorceress.” Panelists share insights on casting a versatile coven, character arcs, and the emotional depth behind their performances. Topics include Rupp’s surprise at Sharon’s expanded role, Zamata’s connection to Jennifer’s vulnerabilities, Ahn’s reflections on working with Aubrey Plaza, and the musical journey behind the series’ songs—including praise from Patti LuPone. Hahn also opens up about scenes with Joe Locke and the challenges of filming in a giant mud pit.
