Marvel Positive Is Being Cagey About Joe Locke’s Agatha All Alongside Character

Witches are by nature mysterious—and that carries over into Marvel’s WandaVision spin-off, Agatha All Along, which can comply with Kathryn Hahn’s breakout character as she assembles a coven to accompany her on a darkish quest. However how does Agatha get motivated to embark upon her mission? Look to Joe Locke‘s character, who’s simply as mysterious as the remainder of this.

In a brand new Empire Magazine characteristic, showrunner Jac Schaeffer describes Locke’s function as a, sure, “mysterious goth teen” who provides Agatha the concept to take the Witches’ Highway in a bid to regain her magic powers. Locke himself says his title within the script is actually simply “Teen,” within the grand custom of Marvel maintaining sure twists near the vest till it’s time to disclose them.

Since Locke was introduced for the sequence, Marvel followers have speculated that he’s taking part in Wiccan–aka Billy Kaplan–the magical Younger Avenger who’s in actual fact the re-incarnated soul of one among Wanda and Vision’s twin sons. In the comics, each Billy and Tommy have been constituted of items of Mephisto’s soul when Wanda created them, finally re-incarnating after the twins have been erased from existence as new beings who grew up in separate solely unaware of their connection to Wanda, even after they re-developed their superpowers. So even when “Teen” actually is Billy, there’s an excellent probability he nonetheless wouldn’t know by the point of Agatha All Alongside.

“He’s a well-known; he’s just like the assistant to the coven,” Locke informed the journal. “Teen is a giant fan of witchcraft and witches, so for him to be taken below Agatha Harkness’ wing and kind a coven and go down the Witches’ Highway is his dream. He’s fanboy-esque, and in his aspect. Which could be very enjoyable—as a result of I used to be [too]!”

He additionally introduced up a comparability that feels surprising, given what we’ve seen of Agatha All Alongside thus far: “Jac despatched [Marvel boss] Kevin Feige an image of the Witches’ Highway set and he replied, ‘Oh my God, we’re making The Goonies.’That’s what I’d been saying—that we have been making this journey sequence.”

Witches plus superpowers plus The Goonies plus (rumor has it) musical numbers? Agatha All Alongside can’t get right here quickly sufficient—and we gained’t have for much longer to attend. It arrives on Disney+ September 18 with a two-episode premiere.
